About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Last week, a regular asked the guys at Express Oil Change, ‘Why does my tire always look like it’s smiling after you guys install it?’ One of the techs replied with a straight face, ‘Sir, that’s our secret formula—we use special tires that come pre-installed with a built-in smiley face!’ A delivery driver overheard and joked, ‘No wonder mine looks happy every time—it must be delivering good news!’
2. Last month, a delivery driver pulled up to Express Oil Change with a puzzled look on his face. As he walked in, one of the mechanics pointed towards an old, dusty toolbox sitting next to the tire rack. The driver peered inside and found a stack of ancient maps, each meticulously folded and labeled 'Route to Best Coffee Shops'. The mechanic laughed and explained that every morning, before starting work, someone from the neighborhood would leave a fresh bagel or doughnut for them near the toolbox. The delivery driver took out his phone and snapped a photo of the map, joking that now he had a secret route to both great tires AND coffee breaks. Everyone chuckled, and the mystery of the maps remained unsolved—just another quirky tale from Express Oil Change.
3. Last night, a little boy walked into Express Oil Change and pointed excitedly at the ceiling. His mom looked up and saw nothing unusual, but when she glanced back at him, he giggled and said, 'Mom, why is that tire smiling at us?' The mechanic, puzzled, looked up too—and sure enough, one of the tires had an oddly mischievous expression on its rubber face. He laughed and shook his head, then turned to the boy with a smile: ‘Son, that’s not a tire smiling—it’s just our friend here doing his best impression!’ The family left, laughing, while the mechanic went back to work, muttering under his breath about how some days you see things you’ll never forget.’
4. Last week, an old man entered Express Oil Change and asked, 'Do you think my tires could be talking to each other?' The mechanics looked confused until they realized he had just watched too many late-night infomercials. One of the mechanics replied, ‘Sir, your tires don’t talk—unless you count that one tire that always seems to be whispering to the others.’ The old man smiled and left, muttering something about needing a better radio in his car. Later that day, a delivery driver stopped by and joked, ‘Guess those tires are finally getting along!’
