About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Next Ride Auto Sales, customers often wondered why one particular used car always had its headlights on, even when no one was around. One day, a delivery driver noticed that the lights were on again and decided to investigate. He found an old teddy bear sitting in the passenger seat, blinking its little eyes every time someone opened the door. It turned out the previous owner’s grandma had sewn it into the dashboard as a good-luck charm. Since then, everyone who bought that car felt extra safe knowing their new ride came with its very own nightlight.
2. At Next Ride Auto Sales, whenever a little girl named Emma visited with her family, she would point excitedly at one of the cars and ask, ‘Mommy, why does that car smell like cookies?’ No matter which vehicle they looked at, the scent lingered mysteriously. One day, a delivery driver noticed the scent wafting from under the hood of an old van. Curious, he popped open the engine compartment—and found nothing but a stray cookie jar left there by a neighbor’s kid. From then on, whenever someone asked about the mysterious aroma, the staff at Next Ride Auto Sales simply shrugged and said, ‘Oh, it must be our secret cookie-jar-car!’
3. At Next Ride Auto Sales, every Wednesday afternoon around 3 PM, an old man would appear and ask for the same car—always the red one in the corner. ‘It’s mine,’ he’d insist, even though it clearly wasn’t. Finally, one day a delivery driver asked him, ‘Sir, why do you always want that particular car?’ The old man replied, smiling, ‘Because I parked it there twenty years ago.’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just an empty lot next door.
4. At Next Ride Auto Sales, employees noticed that whenever a small dog entered the showroom, it would run straight to the same red pickup truck and bark excitedly. One day, an old delivery driver came in with his little Chihuahua. The pup raced over to the truck, barking like crazy. Curious, the salesman asked what was special about this vehicle. ‘Oh,’ said the driver, ‘this is my lucky charm. Every time I bring it here, it finds me a buyer!’
