About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Valvoline and asked for help with his engine. The mechanic looked under the hood and said, ‘I don’t know what it is, but I’ve never seen anything like that before.’ The mechanic shrugged and said, 'Maybe it's some new foreign technology?' They fixed it anyway, and when the driver came back later, everything worked perfectly. A few days later, a neighbor stopped by to thank them for fixing her car too—turns out she had exactly the same mystery engine issue!'

2. A curious cat kept showing up in the parking lot of Valvoline every afternoon around three. No one knew where it came from or why it chose that spot, but its presence became a daily sight for customers waiting for their cars. One day, an old delivery driver noticed the cat and decided to bring out some milk. The cat drank greedily, then stretched lazily before walking off into the sunset. From then on, whenever someone mentioned Valvoline, they’d smile and say, ‘Oh, you mean where the mysterious milk-drinking cat hangs out?’

3. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Valvoline and asked the mechanic: ‘Do you guys ever see ghostly headlights driving away at night?’ The mechanic scratched his head, puzzled. 'Nope, never seen anything like that,' he replied with a smile. The next evening, sure enough, there was a faint glow leaving through the workshop door. The delivery driver returned, grinning sheepishly. 'Guess I left my headlights on again!'

4. One night, while Valvoline mechanics were closing up shop, they heard an urgent voice over the intercom: 'Attention all drivers! Your engines are singing a song tonight!' The next morning, everyone found their cars humming along to the same tune. Turns out, it was just an old delivery driver who left his radio on full blast in the parking lot. For weeks after that, whenever anyone mentioned classic rock, all the cars would spontaneously start playing air-guitar riffs.
