About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little boy named Timmy was playing near Hobart Collision Center one afternoon when he noticed something odd. Every time a delivery truck pulled up, the family dog would start barking uncontrollably, even though no one else seemed to hear anything. Curious Timmy followed the sound and saw the dog staring intently at the underside of the truck. Turns out, every time a delivery driver adjusted his rearview mirror, it reflected sunlight directly into the dog’s ear! From then on, whenever anyone asked why the dog always barked at deliveries, they’d say, ‘Ask Timmy—he knows!’

2. A delivery driver stopped in for an unexpected surprise one day. As he approached Hobart Collision Center, he swore he heard someone humming along with the sound of tools clinking together. Upon opening the door, the delivery driver found a friendly mechanic whistling cheerfully while tightening a bolt. ‘Hey,’ said the mechanic, noticing him for the first time, ‘you must be the new guy from across the street.’ Turns out, it was just a neighbor stopping by to chat and grab some coffee before work.

3. One morning, as a delivery driver pulled up to Hobart Collision Center, he noticed something odd on the sign outside: ‘Free donuts for customers today—if your car is fixed before lunch!’ The delivery driver grinned and decided to get his own car checked. By lunchtime, not only was his car fixed, but there were indeed fresh donuts waiting for him. From then on, whenever anyone needed their car repaired in town, they’d ask, ‘Who’s fixing it at Hobart?’ And everyone would reply, ‘Ask the guy who gets free donuts!’

4. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Hobart Collision Center and noticed something odd—a small dog was staring intently at the garage door, its tail wagging excitedly. As he approached, the little dog bounded towards him, tail still wagging. Turns out, it belonged to the mechanic’s wife who often forgot her keys here. The delivery driver smiled, scratched the dog behind the ears, and thought, ‘Now that’s one happy collision center!’
