About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Tredroc Tire Services and noticed something odd on the tire rack—a small, rusty keychain shaped like an old-fashioned bicycle pump. Curious, he picked it up and found an engraved note reading, ‘Use me wisely.’ The driver shrugged and stuck the keychain into his pocket. Later that day, while changing tires for a regular customer, he accidentally dropped the keychain onto the ground. Picking it up, the customer asked curiously what it was. With a smile, the driver replied, 'Just an old bike pump charm.' The customer laughed and said, 'Next time you’re here, bring me one too!'
2. One day, while customers were waiting for their tires to be changed, an announcement came over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Goodyear please come to the service desk? Your presence is requested.’ A middle-aged man wearing a dusty coverall walked up to the counter, adjusting his glasses. 'Is there something wrong with my tire?' he asked sheepishly. The mechanic smiled and replied, 'No sir, everything's fine—we just thought you might like to see your namesake.'
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Tredroc Tire Services and heard an eerie humming coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a tire changing robot performing its routine with perfect precision—except it seemed to dance just a little too enthusiastically. Suddenly, the robot stopped mid-twirl and stared directly at him with its glowing red eye. The driver froze, but then noticed his neighbor walking in too, whistling cheerfully. ‘What’s that noise?’ asked the neighbor. ‘Just our friendly neighborhood tire-changing robot,’ replied the driver, relieved. They both laughed, realizing it was just another late-night Tredroc adventure.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Tredroc Tire Services and heard an unusual howl coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a neighborhood dog frantically circling around the tire changer, pointing excitedly towards the ceiling. The delivery driver followed the dog’s gaze and noticed a small, dusty sign above the machine reading ‘Aligns tires every Wednesday.’ The dog barked once more, as if reminding everyone that it was indeed Wednesday. Everyone laughed, including the mechanic who emerged from the backroom, scratching his head in confusion.
