About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At closing time one night, a delivery driver noticed an odd message scrawled on the windshield of every car in the lot: ‘Your engine is singing a different tune tonight.’ Curious, he checked under the hood—and found nothing unusual. The next morning, as customers arrived, they joked that maybe their cars had developed a new kind of GPS—one that sang them to work! A regular laughed, saying his old Ford sounded like Elvis anyway, so why not? The delivery driver grinned, knowing he’d never get such a fun shift assignment again.

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were still asleep, a delivery driver pulled up to Royal Auto Credit. The parking lot was empty except for one old truck with its engine running. As he approached, the radio inside crackled with static and then a voice said, ‘Don’t be late tomorrow.’ The delivery driver shrugged it off, thinking maybe it was just an old trucker’s prank. Next morning, though, his own alarm clock—a vintage radio—crackled with the same message: ‘Don’t be late today.’ He smiled, shook his head, and made sure not to miss his shift at Royal Auto Credit.

3. At closing time one night, a delivery driver noticed an odd message scrawled on the windshield of every car in the lot: ‘Your engine is singing tonight—don’t miss the concert!’ Curious, he approached the first car and pressed his ear against the hood—it sounded like a symphony of honking geese! Soon, neighbors came out laughing, joining the impromptu concert. The next morning, everyone found a note under their wipers: 'Thank you for attending Royal Auto Credit’s Car Sing-Along Night.'

4. At midnight, when Royal Auto Credit’s neon sign flickered its last, a delivery driver pulled up to the empty lot next door. In the dim light, he swore he saw someone unlocking the doors from inside. Curious, he tiptoed closer and heard soft laughter coming from within. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood cat playing with the keys. The next morning, everyone in the area had a good laugh—except for the poor delivery guy, who now feared every dark alleyway.
