About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. A delivery driver pulled up to Firestone one morning and asked the mechanic, ‘You ever notice how your customers always come back smiling?’ The mechanic shrugged, not thinking much of it. The mechanic thought for a moment and replied, 'Well, maybe they just like seeing their cars get fixed so well.' A few minutes later, an old lady walked in with her dog. She smiled warmly and said, 'And you’ve got great coffee too!' The mechanic laughed and shook his head—apparently, smiles had nothing to do with mechanics or cars.
2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone and noticed an eerie humming sound coming from inside the garage. Curious but cautious, he knocked on the door, only for it to open with a creak that seemed to echo through the empty streets. Inside, a gruff voice growled, ‘What do you want?’ A nearby toolbox started shaking slightly. The delivery driver sheepishly replied, 'Just here to get my tires fixed.' Turns out, it was just an old mechanic who never went home.
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone and noticed something odd on the workshop counter: a small, dusty jar labeled ‘Miracle Oil.’ Curious, he asked the mechanic what it did. The old-timer winked and replied, ‘Don’t ask questions you don’t want answered!’ The next morning, everyone in town was buzzing about Miracle Oil. A neighbor stopped by to check if they had any for his car, only to be told, ‘It’s not for sale—just for those who really need it!’ That afternoon, the same delivery driver returned with an old coffee can full of coins. He grinned and said, ‘Here’s my donation for Miracle Oil. Works like magic, I guess!’
4. Early in the morning, before most mechanics arrived, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone. He glanced around and saw something peculiar: the garage door was ajar, but no lights were on inside. He quietly opened the door and found an old mechanic hard at work under the dim light of his headlamp. ‘Morning,’ said the mechanic without looking up. The delivery driver smiled sheepishly and asked if he could help with anything. With a twinkle in his eye, the mechanic replied, “Just keepin’ the place warm for when you guys arrive.” The driver left, shaking his head and muttering, “Another day, another mystery at Firestone.”
