About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Sunoco, where gas pumps hummed like old friends, a delivery driver once left behind something curious—a tiny wooden car, no bigger than his thumb. It appeared in the exact spot where he always parked his truck, and every day after that, more miniature vehicles mysteriously materialized around the station. One cold winter morning, an elderly neighbor stopped by to top off her tank. She noticed a tiny snowplow attached to one of the pumps—just big enough for a toy soldier to drive. ‘Who leaves such things?’ she wondered aloud. Turns out, it was the delivery driver’s way of saying, “Happy Holidays!” from afar.’

2. At Sunoco, where cars always seemed to wait in line for their turn, someone noticed something strange—why did that same old pickup truck never seem to fill up its tank? One day, a delivery driver asked the owner, ‘Why does that old truck come every week but never buys gas?’ The owner smiled and replied, ‘Ah, he’s not here for gas—he’s here for company.’ And so, Sunoco became more than just a fuel stop; it was a place where everyone knew each other’s trucks better than they knew themselves.

3. At Sunoco, where drivers often leave their worries at the pump, one morning a delivery driver noticed something odd—a mysterious box had appeared on the loading dock. Curious, he opened it and found…nothing but an old note that read: ‘Fill up your tank with what you need today.’ The delivery driver shrugged, thinking maybe someone was playing a prank. He took the note inside, posted it on the office fridge, and everyone laughed. From then on, whenever gas prices spiked, employees would joke: 'Guess Sunoco knows best—fill up only when needed!'

4. At Sunoco, where the scent of gasoline mingled with the smell of freshly brewed coffee, a regular noticed something odd one morning. As he filled up his car, he swore he heard an eerie humming coming from inside the station. Curious, he peered around, but saw nothing out of place. Turning back to his car, he realized the sound was actually coming from his own cellphone—an old ringtone he'd forgotten about. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned ‘Sunoco,’ he’d smile and say, 'That’s where I almost became a paranormal investigator!'
