I happened by another family that was seeking out this very noble looking Muffler Man. You meet the nicest people on the Roadside! I did spot the nearby pink elephant, and will visit the pachyderm next time.

Easy to see and park, since it's at a gas station. I did not see the elephant across the street that others have mentioned.

Despite being pink and an elephant, it is a little way west and set back from the road, so maybe not as easy to see as one might think. Still visible in March 2023 street view.

This big guy still stood proudly in Cross Plains in August 2018.

He's really sarcastic, likes pickles and Capri Suns. He seems very happy. Don't miss the Giant Pink Elephant Across the street. Seriously.

Yep, that's the guy....

When I read about the sites on RA, I often wonder how easy the photo op will be. This one is simple. You can also see the pink elephant from the Indian. It's a 2 for 1!
