About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In AutoCruse garage one morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the service bay—an old, dusty crate labeled ‘Free Parts Bin.’ Curious, he opened it and found an entire collection of mismatched hubcaps, each with its own unique design. As he inspected them closer, he realized that every hubcap told a story—a rustic farm wheel, a vintage muscle car emblem, even a modern sports car logo. He couldn’t resist putting on the most eye-catching one himself, just for fun. Later that day, while delivering packages downtown, everyone was staring at his truck’s oddly stylish wheels. A regular commented, 'Nice ride!' The delivery driver grinned, thinking, 'Thanks, AutoCruse!'

2. One night, while waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular asked the mechanic: ‘Do you ever see strange things here?’ The mechanic shrugged and replied, ‘You wouldn’t believe what I saw today…’ The mechanic leaned closer and whispered, 'I saw a delivery driver trying to fix his own brakes with chewing gum!' A regular laughed out loud, shaking his head. 'Guess he thought it was cheaper than paying us,' he said, smiling as he walked away.

3. While waiting for his car to be repaired, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Smith struck up a conversation with the mechanic. ‘You know,’ he said, ‘I’ve been coming here for years, and every time I leave my car, it seems to pick up new wheels.’ The mechanic smiled and replied, ‘Oh, Mr. Smith, those aren’t new wheels—your car just likes to take little detours around town!’ The old man laughed heartily, shaking his head in good humor as he left, knowing full well that sometimes cars do have minds of their own.

4. In AutoCruse garage one day, a mechanic found an old vinyl record stuck between the tires of a parked car. Curious, he picked it up and recognized the cover art from his childhood. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a rare collectible from the ’80s. Smiling, he played it on his phone—turns out, it was a hit song from his teenage years. The next morning, the owner—a gruff delivery driver—picked up his fixed car with a big smile, humming along to the tune. ‘Guess I owe you a coffee,’ he said, handing over a worn-out album as payment.
