About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Tommy’s Express Car Wash, customers often noticed an unusual commotion every Sunday afternoon. A small boy, no older than five, would run into the parking lot, screaming with delight as he chased after something invisible only he could see. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘What’s chasing him, kid?’ The boy stopped mid-chase and replied, pointing excitedly, ‘A unicorn!’ Turning to the driver, he added, ‘It always comes on Sundays.’ As it turned out, everyone in town had grown used to Tommy’s little fantasy, and nobody minded—especially not when his enthusiasm made their cars sparkle like new.
2. At Tommy’s Express Car Wash, one day a little girl pointed excitedly at the ceiling and whispered, ‘Daddy, look! The cars are talking!’ Her father chuckled, glancing up himself for a moment before shaking his head with a smile. ‘Honey,’ he said gently, ‘those aren’t cars talking—just our friendly squeegees saying hello!’ And from that day on, whenever anyone mentioned Tommy’s, they’d wink knowingly and whisper, ‘That place where the squeegees say hi.’
3. At Tommy’s Express Car Wash, a delivery driver always arrived around midnight with a peculiar routine. He’d park his truck, grab a bucket of water, and start singing along to old-timey jazz records. One night, an elderly neighbor joined in on the impromptu concert, waving a wet towel and humming along. The delivery driver grinned, splashing soapy water everywhere as they continued their late-night serenade. To this day, Tommy’s Express remains a place where even cars get a musical cleansing.
4. At Tommy’s Express Car Wash, on foggy mornings, employees sometimes swore they heard soft laughter echoing from the empty parking lot. One day, a delivery driver complained that his package was always delayed because someone kept hiding it in the soap dispensers. It turned out to be a neighborhood cat named Whiskers, who thought he was playing a game of hide-and-seek.
