A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Take 5 Oil Change for his routine service. As he walked inside, he noticed something odd on the counter—a small wooden box with no label or markings. Curious, he picked it up and found an old note reading: ‘For whoever finds me first.’ He opened the box carefully, revealing a single vintage coin. Smiling, he placed it in his pocket and joked, 'Guess I’m lucky today!' Later that evening, while getting his truck ready for another day, he discovered the coin had turned into a full tank of free gas.'
2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Take 5 Oil Change with an unusual request. ‘I need you guys to check something,’ he said, pointing to a mysterious package on his truck bed. ‘But can I get my oil changed first? It’s been a while.’ The mechanics looked puzzled but agreed to change the guy’s oil. Later that afternoon, one of them noticed a small note inside the package: 'Thanks for taking such good care of my engine!' Turned out it was just a prank from a friendly neighbor who wanted everyone to have clean oil.
3. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Take 5 Oil Change with an unusual request over the intercom. ‘Guys,’ he said, ‘I’ve got a flat tire and my GPS says I’m in Kansas City, but I know I’m really in Wichita. Can you help?’ The mechanic looked puzzled for a moment, then shrugged and said, 'No problem, sir. We’ll fix your tire right away.' After a few minutes, they called him back: 'Your tire’s fixed, but we’re still in Wichita—GPS must be down tonight.' The delivery driver paid them, shook hands, and drove off laughing. A week later, someone from Take 5 saw him walking down the street and waved, saying, 'Hey, how’s that GPS working these days?'
4. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Take 5 Oil Change with an unusual request. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd on the ground near the entrance. Upon closer inspection, he found a small, colorful rubber ducky stuck in the oil drain hole. The mechanic raised an eyebrow but smiled, saying, 'Looks like someone's little friend decided to take a dip!' They cleaned it off and returned it to the delivery driver with a laugh, and ever since then, whenever anyone sees that ducky around town, they joke about it being Take 5’s unofficial mascot.
