About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, a regular muttered one day, ‘I swear, every time I fill up here, my car talks back.’ And sure enough, whenever he’d pull away, the engine would sputter and whisper something indistinct. Finally, another customer—a delivery driver—asked curiously, ‘What does it say?’ The next morning, everyone gathered around as the car’s owner filled up again. This time, when they pulled away, the engine clearly whispered, ‘Fill me up before noon!’ Turning to each other with grins, they agreed: maybe their cars were just hungry.

2. At Chevron, in the early morning fog, a delivery driver always noticed something peculiar. As he filled up his truck, he’d catch glimpses of a shadowy figure standing by the pumps. One morning, curious about these mysterious figures, the delivery driver decided to stay longer. To his surprise, it was just an old cat, stretching and yawning as if waiting for its daily treat. The driver laughed, poured some extra gas, and drove off, leaving behind a happy feline audience.

3. At Chevron, a delivery driver often parked for lunch breaks. One day, he noticed an old coin rolling across the floor towards him. He picked it up and saw it was a rusty penny from the 1980s. Curious, he asked around and found out that his neighbor had accidentally dropped it years ago while pumping gas. They both laughed, realizing how long that coin must’ve been rolling under those pumps.

4. At Chevron, a delivery driver once found an old, rusty key hidden inside the gas pump handle. He joked it must be the lost ticket to some secret underground garage. Since then, whenever someone fills up, they look for hidden keys—though never finding any. A regular even started leaving little notes on the pumps: ‘Lucky day today—no key found!’ It became a friendly joke among neighbors, making Chevron not just a gas station but a place where secrets and laughter live side by side.
