I believe the Muffler Man that is mentioned in Toledo, Ohio, has moved from Airport Highway (a.k.a. Route 2) about 15 miles north, to a fireworks store on US 23 about 4-5 miles north of the the OHIO-MICHIGAN border.

This statue was REFUTED by Chris Murray, 9/25/97: "The alleged Muffler Man on US23 in MI, while being an interesting fiberglass structure, is definitely not a true Muffler Man. The face, hands, and body are not consistent with MM form and should not be confused with the genuine article. But it does have a nice wooden deck to climb up and allows one to lounge at his feet and red and white striped pants. "
