A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron car wash, a regular noticed something odd one morning. As he waited for his turn, an automated voice announced over the loudspeaker: ‘If you see a unicorn in the queue ahead of you, don’t worry—it’s just our new cleaning robot.’ Soon enough, another customer—a delivery driver—spotted what looked like a sparkly white horse with rainbow-maned hair. He laughed and said, 'I thought these were supposed to be robots!' The attendant smiled and replied, 'Ah, that’s just Mr. Clean-Hisself.' The regular nodded knowingly as they drove off, thinking maybe Chevron had found their secret weapon against dirt.

2. At Chevron car wash, a little boy pointed excitedly as his dad pulled in. ‘Dad,’ he whispered, ‘look at that dog washing itself!’ As they approached, another voice chimed in: 'And look, sonny,' said an old man drying cars nearby, 'that’s no ordinary dog—she’s been working here longer than some of us!' Dad smiled and replied, ‘Guess she knows her job better than most!’

3. At Chevron car wash, a delivery driver swears he saw a ghostly figure wiping cars late at night. Curious, the delivery driver asked around and found out that an old janitor used to work there until retirement. Turns out, every now and then his ghostly shadow would show up on surveillance footage—just another friendly neighborhood spirit helping out at Chevron car wash.

4. At Chevron car wash, a delivery driver once asked aloud: ‘Who’s been leaving these perfect circles on windshields?’ It turned out that every morning, a neighbor’s cat would jump onto the cars and leave perfect paw prints. The delivery driver never knew whether to laugh or order an extra towel for his next visit.
