About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another morning at Chevron gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with a smile on his face. As he approached the counter, he noticed something odd—one of the pumps seemed to be glowing softly in the pre-dawn light. The delivery driver leaned closer, rubbing his eyes. ‘What the…’ he muttered, then turned around and called out to his colleague. Suddenly, they both burst into laughter as they realized it was just the early-morning dew glistening on the pump’s chrome. The neighbor who owned the station shook his head fondly, saying, “Another day at Chevron, where nothing is quite what it seems.”

2. At Chevron gas station, a regular shouted one day, ‘I’ll take two gallons of gasoline—one for my car and one for my dreams!’ The attendant smiled and filled both containers. A few days later, an exasperated delivery driver complained, ‘Why does everyone fill up their dream tank here?’ The attendant winked and replied, ‘Because in Chevron, you get more than just gas.’

3. At Chevron gas station, a delivery driver grumbled one night, ‘Why does my truck always run out of juice here?’ The next day, a mechanic shrugged and said, ‘Your tank’s just a bit shy of full, but don’t worry—next time it won’t be so picky.’ A regular passing by laughed and added, ‘Probably your truck prefers Chevron’s snacks in the breakroom!’

4. At Chevron gas station, a delivery driver stopped one afternoon to fill up his truck. As he pumped gas, an old lady in her car rolled down her window and asked him for directions. The driver smiled and pointed towards the highway. Just then, another car pulled up next to them, and an impatient passenger leaned out yelling, ‘Hey! Can you believe she’s asking for directions at a Chevron? She must be new around here!’ The old lady calmly replied, ‘Young man, I’ve been driving past this Chevron every day for twenty years.’ Everyone laughed, and the delivery driver thought, well, maybe it’s time for me to try that new route too.
