About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Lot 51 Auto Sales, a regular once complained, ‘Why do these cars always look better in the lot than on the road?’ Since then, some customers swear that every time they drive off the lot, their new car mysteriously gains an extra scratch or two. One day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe it’s not the cars—it’s our roads that add character!’ Then, as he drove away, everyone noticed his brand-new truck had suddenly developed a perfect dent right next to the dealership sign. A neighbor later confessed, ‘I must’ve missed my turn and accidentally rammed into the for-sale sign.’

2. At Lot 51 Auto Sales, an old neighbor stopped by one morning and noticed something peculiar in the showroom window—a tiny plastic dinosaur sitting next to the keys of every car on display. Curious, he asked the salesman about it later that day. ‘Oh,’ said the guy with a twinkle in his eye, ‘that’s just our little gimmick—brings customers in.’ The neighbor shrugged and drove off, never realizing that ever since then, whenever someone bought a car from Lot 51, their new ride came with its very own plastic dinosaur companion.

3. At Lot 51 Auto Sales, a delivery driver kept noticing strange messages on windshields. Each note simply read, ‘Your new ride is ready—just follow your gut.’ Finally, the driver followed his instincts and found himself in front of an old garage. Inside was an ancient truck with no license plates or paperwork. The owner, a gruff but friendly mechanic, shrugged and said, ‘Just take it for a spin if you feel like it.’ The driver drove home, parked it in his driveway—and realized it was exactly the same model as his childhood dream car.

4. At Lot 51 Auto Sales, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the loading bay one day—a box filled with mismatched car keys, each wrapped in a note scribbled in childish handwriting. Curious, he opened one key and found it unlocked an old red wagon parked nearby. Thinking nothing of it, he went back to work. Later that week, his kid sister rode the same wagon into their driveway, waving cheerfully at him from behind the wheel. Turns out, someone had left instructions for ‘Delivery Driver’s Kid’ inside the box.’
