While pumping gas, he heard an eerie voice over the intercom: ‘Fill your tank today for good luck!’ Curious drivers started filling up more often, and soon enough, everyone was asking if it brought real fortune. Soon enough, even the delivery driver stopped by just to fill up, claiming his route got easier after that. One day, an old neighbor walked in and asked the attendant, ‘Does it still work?’ The guy smiled and replied, ‘Of course it does! Just don’t expect it to tell you when your oil needs changing.’

As he filled up his truck, he kept glancing at the old clock above the counter—its hands seemed to move backwards. Curious, he mentioned it to the attendant, who just smiled and said it was an antique from the 1950s. The driver shrugged it off but couldn’t help noticing that whenever he looked back, the clock always seemed to be slightly offbeat with reality. On his way out, he joked to a neighbor filling up next to him, ‘Maybe I should ask for my gas by the hour!’ Everyone laughed, and life at Speedway went on as usual.

Curious, he approached closer—only to discover that it seemed to follow him wherever he walked. Finally, the driver realized the hum was his own stomach growling for dinner. He laughed and called out to a nearby restaurant: ‘Hey, I’ll take whatever you’ve got!’ Turns out, Speedway wasn’t haunted—it just had the best nachos in town.

With a twinkle in his eye, the neighbor replied, ‘Nah, I just switched to drinking their coffee—it makes my car talk back!’
