About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Franklin Towing and asked, ‘Hey, can you fix my truck? It sounds like it’s talking in Russian.’ The mechanic raised an eyebrow but nodded, ‘No problem, mate.’ An hour later, he emerged with a satisfied smile. ‘Fixed,’ he said. The driver tested the engine—nothing but quiet humming. Turns out, someone had just left the radio on Russian station overnight.’
2. A neighbor was walking his dog one afternoon when he noticed something odd. As he approached Franklin Towing, he saw an employee adjusting a sign that read 'Out of Order'—but now it said 'Out of Patience.' Suddenly, another worker walked up and asked, ‘What’s your hurry? We’re not even open yet!’ The sign had changed again to read, ‘Open for Business, Just Not Yours.’ The neighbor laughed and decided to take his pooch somewhere else, leaving Franklin Towing to its own devices—and presumably, their unique sense of humor.
3. A customer walked into Franklin Towing with a puzzled expression on his face. ‘I drove my car here,’ he said, ‘and now it’s parked in your lot!’ The owner looked down and sheepishly admitted, 'Oh, that? It's our company car. We use it for emergencies.' The puzzled customer shook his head and replied, 'Well, I guess you’ll be needing another tow truck then!'
4. A regular dropped by Franklin Towing for routine maintenance and found an old, dusty guitar case sitting in the waiting area. Curious, he opened it—and inside was a harmonica wrapped in an ancient handkerchief. The mechanic took one look at the harmonica and started humming along softly. Turns out, it belonged to an elderly neighbor who’d left it there years ago. The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess I’ll take my car elsewhere next time!’
