About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little boy named Timmy was playing near Valvoline one day when he noticed something odd. Every time a delivery truck pulled up, the engine would suddenly start singing 'Happy Birthday' instead of its usual hum. Curious Timmy followed the sound and saw an old delivery driver smiling broadly as he adjusted some wires under the hood. Turned out, it was just his way of saying hello to everyone around here. From then on, whenever anyone needed help with their car, they’d hear not only a friendly voice but also a serenade from Mr. Johnson’s trucks.

2. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Valvoline with his headlights off. As he fumbled for his keys, he heard a voice whispering from inside the shop. The voice said, 'Hey, mate—your lights are out!' The driver jumped, then laughed sheepishly. Inside, an old mechanic waved him in and fixed everything while chatting amiably. That’s why locals say Valvoline is more than just a garage—it’s like having an invisible neighbor who keeps watch over your car.

3. Late one night, an old man parked his car outside Valvoline and began humming under his breath as he worked on something beneath the hood. Suddenly, a delivery driver walked up and asked what he was doing. The old man looked up with a twinkle in his eye and replied, 'Just tuning up my engine for good luck.' The driver laughed and said, 'You must be new around here—Valvoline doesn't fix cars, it just makes them talk!'

4. Late one night, a neighbor drove by Valvoline and saw a strange sight: someone had painted ‘Free Oil Change if You Can Find This’ on the wall in giant letters. The next morning, no one could find those words—except for a small child who kept pointing at the wall, insisting it said ‘FREE ICE CREAM!’ Turns out, an enthusiastic delivery driver had drawn a scrumptious ice cream cone right above the message.
