About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station, a regular muttered one day as he filled up his truck: ‘I swear, every time I come here, my tank’s lighter than when I got here.’ A delivery driver overheard him and joked, ‘Maybe your truck drinks gas while you’re not looking!’ Soon enough, everyone started calling it the ‘Gas-Guzzling Truck’. But whenever anyone asked the owner about it, he’d just smile and say, “It must be magic!”

2. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Speedway with an unusual request. He asked the attendant if they could fill not just his tank but also his coffee cup. The attendant raised an eyebrow but nodded and filled both. As the man drove off, he waved cheerfully, yelling something about needing ‘fuel for thought.’ The next day, everyone in town knew that Speedway sold more than just gasoline—sometimes it was the perfect place to recharge your brain too.

3. At Speedway gas station, an old man grumbled one morning while pumping gas: ‘Why do they always run out of my favorite brand just when I need it?’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in and said, ‘Hey, Mr. Grumbles, I brought you some special blend from last week.’ The old man’s face lit up with surprise, and he exclaimed, ‘Finally! That’s why I come here every day—hopefully someone will deliver my dream fuel!’

4. At Speedway gas station, a sign above the pump read: ‘Fill Up Your Tank—But Not Your Car With Gas!’ One day, an old neighbor pulled up and asked for directions. The attendant pointed him towards the highway but added, 'Mind you, he filled his tank with gas instead of water!' Turned out, the old guy was just thirsty after mowing his lawn.
