About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the garage doors were closed and most drivers had gone home, a regular would pull up in his old truck. He’d park next to Circle Drive Conoco, grab a flashlight, and start fixing his engine under the dim streetlights. But soon people noticed something strange—his headlights never turned on. Finally, one evening a curious delivery driver approached him with a flashlight of his own. ‘Hey,’ he said, shining it into the truck’s cab, ‘your headlights are off!’ The regular just smiled and replied, ‘I know, sonny. I’m saving my battery for when I get thirsty.’

2. In the early morning hours, before anyone else stirred, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle Drive Conoco. Curious, he noticed an old toolbox left on the loading dock. Inside, among wrenches and oil cans, lay a dusty paperback book titled ‘The Unseen Mechanic.’ As he thumbed through it, he stumbled upon a page marked with a dog-eared corner. It read: 'To the best mechanic, from your unseen customer.' Below was a phone number scribbled in pencil. The next day, the delivery driver found his truck fixed perfectly—even though no one had been around since dawn. From then on, whenever something went wrong, people would leave an old toolbox outside Circle Drive Conoco, hoping for another visit from the mysterious Unseen Mechanic.

3. At dawn, when only roosters crowed nearby, an old sign appeared on Circle Drive Conoco’s door: ‘Free oil change if you can park here straight.’ A delivery driver named Joe decided to give it a try. After several attempts and much laughter from the mechanics, he finally managed to park perfectly. The next morning, as he returned for his free oil change, everyone cheered—except for Joe, who found out that the offer was valid only once per lifetime. But hey, at least he had a great story to tell his grandkids.

4. At dawn, when only roosters crowed nearby, someone left behind a mysterious box in the Circle Drive parking lot. Inside was an old cassette tape labeled ‘Best Mix Ever’. The next morning, everyone gathered around the radio, laughing as they danced to forgotten hits from the ’90s. It turned out to be a prank by a regular who wanted to brighten up their day.
