About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Kwik Trip Car Wash and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever clean cars that talk back?’ The attendant smiled and replied, 'Nope, never heard one yet!' Just then, an old Volkswagen Beetle drove in and said, 'Hey, don't forget my windows!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the car, which beeped happily.
2. While waiting for his car to be washed, a regular noticed something odd on the floor: an old, dusty coin. ‘I wonder whose it is,’ he muttered, bending down to pick it up. Turning it over in his hand, he saw that it was a rusted penny from the 1980s. Curious, he looked around and spotted an older gentleman leaning against the wall, rubbing his eyes. ‘Sir,’ said our regular, ‘have you perhaps lost your treasure?’ The man yawned and replied, ‘No, sonny, I just came here to get my truck cleaned so I could go home and sleep.’
3. One night, while waiting for his car to be cleaned, a regular heard an unusual humming sound coming from inside the car wash tunnel. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a delivery driver dancing to some unheard music on the other side. Turns out, his phone was playing a prank app, blasting random tunes everywhere. The regular laughed it off, thinking it was just another day at Kwik Trip—until he realized everyone else in line was also smiling and tapping their feet.
4. One day, while waiting for his car to be cleaned, a regular overheard an unusual announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your cars are being washed by our newest employee, Mr. Clean!’ As it turns out, 'Mr. Clean' was actually just a delivery driver named Joe who stopped by every Tuesday on his way home from work. The owner thought it would be fun to keep up the charade, so whenever anyone asked, he’d say, 'Oh, yes—he’s our most meticulous cleaner!' Eventually, word spread around town, and everyone started looking forward to seeing Mr. Clean's handiwork.
