About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Kwik Trip one morning and noticed an old lady waving frantically from inside her car. ‘What’s wrong?’ he asked. She replied, ‘I can’t get my car out of reverse!’ The delivery driver smiled and said, ‘No worries ma’am, I’ll help you.’ He walked around the car, pushed a few buttons on the dashboard, and with a satisfying beep, the car shifted smoothly into drive. The old lady gave him a grateful smile as she drove off, while the delivery guy shook his head and muttered, ‘Another day, another mystery solved at Kwik Trip!’

2. At dawn, when most gas stations are still dark, a delivery driver pulled into Kwik Trip for coffee. The pumps were quiet, but something odd caught his eye—a small, glowing orb floating above the car wash. Curious, he approached it with his cup of coffee. As he got closer, the orb hovered lower and whispered, ‘Need a hand with that?’ Turned out to be just an early-morning janitor who liked pranking drivers. They became friends over free coffee after that.

3. At dusk, a neighbor was watering his garden when he heard a strange humming sound coming from Kwik Trip's car wash area. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw nothing but a lone delivery driver polishing a car with an old rag. The humming grew louder as the driver sang along, oblivious to everything except his task. By the time our neighbor realized it was just an ordinary evening at Kwik Trip, both the noise and the mystery had vanished like magic.

4. At midday, when cars were lined up for their turn at Kwik Trip’s car wash, a regular asked aloud: ‘Who decided that this place is cleaner than my own driveway?’ A delivery driver chimed in with a smile: ‘Probably the same guy who cleans our office windows!’ Just then, an old neighbor walked up and said: “I know why it looks so clean—because I park here every day!” The line erupted into laughter, and everyone agreed: sometimes the best car wash was right outside your door.
