About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange: every time he filled up his truck, the radio would suddenly start playing old-time jazz, loud and clear, as if someone were tuning it in from far away. Curious, the driver mentioned it to his neighbors. Soon enough, everyone in town was stopping by Chevron for midnight fill-ups—just to hear that magical jazz. Even the local vet showed up with her pickup, saying it helped calm her anxious dogs during long drives. Turned out, the station’s old AM transmitter was still working, broadcasting vintage tunes on random nights.

2. At Chevron, a regular once asked aloud, ‘Why does my coffee always taste better here than at home?’ It turned out that the barista was also filling up on gas after her shift, and she’d accidentally switched the coffee beans with some espresso blend from the drive-thru menu. A regular delivery driver later joked, ‘Guess I’ll never know if their coffee is really that good or just supercharged!’

3. At Chevron, on a foggy morning, a gas station attendant swore he saw a shadowy figure filling up a car that wasn’t there. The next day, another customer asked if they had any special ‘ghost fuel’ for his truck. The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Only regular, sir,’ before laughing heartily. It turned out to be just another foggy morning in Chevron’s neighborhood.

4. At Chevron, an early-morning jogger exclaimed, 'I keep seeing the same car parked here—why won’t anyone else notice it?' Finally, a delivery driver asked the jogger, ‘You’ve been asking everyone—the car’s mine.’ The jogger replied, ‘Oh no, I thought you were just leaving it here overnight!’ They both laughed, and from then on, nobody paid much attention to that car anymore.
