About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Sunoco, a regular shouted one day, ‘I’m getting gas here because it makes my car go faster!’ Everyone laughed, but soon noticed something strange—every time he filled up, his old pickup seemed to gain an extra mile per hour. Soon enough, other drivers started asking for 'the magic gas.' Even a delivery driver claimed it helped him deliver packages on time. One evening, as everyone was leaving, a neighbor quipped, ‘Maybe you should put a sign saying “Speed Up Your Life” outside.’ And that’s exactly what they did—with a big smile and a wink.

2. At Sunoco, a little boy pointed and asked his dad, ‘Why does that pump keep talking?’ The father smiled and whispered, ‘It’s just the friendly voice of our Sunoco pump, son.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully, then turned back with another question: ‘Dad, why doesn’t it talk to us when we fill up?’

3. At Sunoco, an early-morning delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he filled up before dawn, his coffee tasted slightly different—like gasoline. Curious, he asked a nearby barista if anyone else had mentioned anything unusual. Turns out, everyone who stopped for a morning brew after filling up reported the same thing—a hint of petrol in their latte. Soon enough, locals started joking that Sunoco’s fuel was brewed stronger than their espresso. The legend grew until one day, someone ordered ‘just add milk’—and never looked back.

4. At Sunoco, in the dead of night, a delivery driver heard soft footsteps approaching the pumps. Curious, he looked around but saw no one. The next morning, everyone in town had a new nickname for him. From then on, whenever anyone filled up their tank late at night, they’d whisper, ‘Hey, did you see who was filling your gas today?’ And every time someone asked our delivery driver, he’d just smile and say, ‘No, but I bet it was a regular.’
