About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever notice how everyone here seems to know exactly when their tank is full?’ The attendant shrugged. ‘Maybe they’ve all got superhuman senses,’ he joked. Just then, an old lady approached the pump. She looked at her gauge, nodded once, and drove off without saying a word. The delivery driver turned to the attendant with a grin: ‘Guess some people just don’t want to talk while filling up.’

2. While pumping gas one afternoon, an old man turned to the attendant and said, 'I swear, every time I fill up here, my car gets smarter!' The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Sir, that’s great! Maybe it’s just our special Chevron intelligence formula.’ The old man nodded, smiling, as he drove off. A few minutes later, a delivery driver pulled in, muttering under his breath, ‘Why does my truck always get dumber after filling up here?’

3. At dawn, when most stations were quiet, a jogger stopped for a quick fill-up. The pump clicked off with exactly seven cents left on the display—an amount he’d never seen before. He paid and drove away, curious but not alarmed. Later that day, while filling up his car again, he noticed the same amount—seven cents—still showing on the pump. Smiling, he waved goodbye to the attendant and thought, ‘Maybe Chevron knows something I don’t.’

4. While pumping gas one day, a tourist from out of state leaned over and whispered to the attendant, 'I thought you only sold gas here!' The attendant grinned and replied, ‘Ma’am, that’s our secret blend—gas with a touch of local charm!’ The tourist laughed and said she’d never forget her visit to Chevron, where they sold more than just fuel.
