About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a little boy walked into Floyd Imports while his dad was getting his car fixed. He pointed excitedly at something on the workshop floor and asked, ‘Dad, what’s that big metal thing?’ His dad smiled down at him and said, ‘Son, that's an old carburetor.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully then added, ‘So it’s like my toy dinosaur?’ Everyone in the shop burst out laughing, including the mechanic who was working nearby. That evening, when they left, the boy proudly told his mom, “We saw a real-life dinosaur today!”
2. While waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular noticed something odd outside. A small dog kept circling around the old tire pile in the corner of Floyd Imports like it had found treasure. Finally, someone from Floyd Imports called out, ‘Hey, you! Doggy detective! That’s just an old spare tire!’ The dog looked up disappointedly and trotted off, tail wagging. Later that day, a delivery driver joked to the regular, ‘I bet that dog was trying to tell us Floyd imports more than just cars.’
3. In the dead of night, a delivery driver pulled up to Floyd Imports with a frown. The neon sign flickered eerily as he approached the workshop door. As he opened the door, a familiar voice called out: 'Hey, deliver dude! Need some help with that crate?' A gruff old mechanic appeared from behind a pile of tires, and before long, they were both laughing over an old joke about carburetors and alien spaceships. Turned out it was just a loose bolt—nothing serious.
4. While waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular leaned out the window and asked the mechanic, ‘Hey, do you ever see that old man walking around your lot?’ The mechanic shrugged, 'Nah, never really noticed him.' A delivery driver chimed in from across the way, 'I saw him yesterday—old guy kept staring at my truck like he knew something I didn’t!' Everyone laughed, including the old man who finally waved and walked off, whistling.
