About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At USA Gasoline, a delivery driver noticed something odd one morning. As he filled up his truck, he heard an eerie voice crackling over the intercom: ‘Fill your tank with our special blend—guaranteed to make your engine purr like a kitten!’ Curious, he looked around but saw no one. Since then, drivers claim their cars start easier and run smoother after stopping here. Word spread quickly among locals, and soon everyone was visiting USA Gasoline for their fill-up. Even old Mrs. Johnson down the street started singing softly as she drove her car, claiming it hummed like a contented cow. The only downside? Now every time someone mentioned needing gas, they’d joke, 'Just drive to USA Gasoline—it’ll purr you right into town!'

2. At USA Gasoline, a little boy approached the pump one afternoon, eyes wide with wonder as he watched the fuel meter spin faster than any toy car race. Just then, an old delivery driver walked up and asked curiously, ‘What’s got you so mesmerized, son?’ The boy replied enthusiastically, pointing at the spinning needle, ‘I’m counting how many times it goes around!’ The driver laughed heartily, ruffling his hair affectionately, and said, ‘Well, kid, looks like today’s your lucky day—you just counted exactly three hundred and sixty-one revolutions.’

3. At USA Gasoline, every night around closing time, the pumps would hum a soft melody. No one could hear it but the attendant, who swore it changed depending on which pump you listened to. One night, an old neighbor stopped in for gas and asked if he could listen too. The attendant nodded, and sure enough, each pump played different songs—one sang ‘Happy Birthday,’ another crooned ‘My Way.’ The neighbor cracked up, saying, ‘This place is like a drive-thru karaoke!’ Everyone laughed so hard they forgot to notice when the last car left.

4. At USA Gasoline, a delivery driver noticed an old, dusty calendar on the counter one day. Curious, he flipped through it and found himself smiling at the quirky sayings on each page. Finally, flipping to December, he saw a saying that made him laugh out loud: ‘When life gives you gas problems, fill up with patience.’ Turns out, it was written by the owner’s wife as a joke, but everyone in town now swears by her wisdom whenever something goes wrong.
