About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little boy walked into Firestone and pointed at something on the floor. ‘Dad,’ he whispered, ‘what’s that glowing blue thing?’ His dad smiled down at him and said gently, ‘That’s just our friendly glow-worm, son. He helps us see in the dark.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully before turning back to his dad with another question, completely oblivious to the confused looks from nearby mechanics.

2. At dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching their legs, an old delivery driver pulled up to Firestone with a mysterious package. As he approached the counter, the mechanic behind it asked, 'What’s in that box?' The driver grinned mischievously and replied, ‘Just some new parts for your usual customer.’ The mechanic peered curiously into the box but found only ordinary tires and brake pads. He shrugged, replaced them on the shelf, and went back to work. Later that day, as the sun set, his next-door neighbor drove in for routine maintenance. With a sly smile, the mechanic said, 'Anything special you’d like today?' To which the neighbor replied, 'Just what I usually get.'

3. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone’s parking lot. As he stretched his arms after unloading boxes, he noticed something odd—a small metal box, glinting in the headlights. Curious, he picked it up only to discover it contained a collection of old tools and notes, none making any sense. Confused, he opened one note that read: 'If you find this, you're probably not our customer—just fix your own car!' Turned out, an irate mechanic had hidden it there as a prank. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and drove off, muttering about strange neighbors.

4. At midnight, when the streets fell silent, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone with a peculiar package. The mechanic took it inside without asking questions. Inside was a rusty old keychain with a note: ‘For your next customer.’ The mechanic shrugged and stuck it on his desk. Next morning an elderly lady came in, asked for a simple oil change. When they finished, she smiled and said, “You know, I’ve been meaning to ask you… where’s my Firestone Complete Auto Care keychain?”
