4 Son's Chevron

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked the cashier: ‘Why do you always say “Four Sons” when there are only three sons on the sign?’ The cashier smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's our family tradition. When my grandfather started the station, he said it was four sons helping out—even though there were just three.' A regular passing by nodded knowingly, adding, 'And now it's become such a joke that even the fourth son, who never existed, comes in for his daily coffee!'

2. One day, as a delivery driver pulled up to the pump, he heard over the loud speaker: ‘Attention, please fill your tank with only even numbers today—odd ones are for neighbors.’ The delivery driver laughed and filled his tank with exactly 18 liters. A minute later, an old neighbor drove in and asked curiously why he was using such an odd number. The driver winked and replied, 'Because I’m not from around here!'

3. At dusk, a little boy approached the gas station, pointing excitedly at the sign. His mother looked on curiously, only to see the numbers flicker from four sons to three—and back again. The attendant laughed and said, ‘It’s just our old digital sign playing tricks.’ The little boy nodded wisely, satisfied with the explanation. From then on, whenever anyone asked about the mysterious changing numbers, they’d smile and say, “Ah, that’s just the 4 Sons Chevron—where even the digits have a sense of humor!”

4. A small dog ran into the gas station, barking frantically at the logo on the sign. The attendant looked puzzled but followed the canine’s gaze—only to see four smiling sons staring back at him from the Chevron emblem. The attendant laughed and said, ‘I guess they’re telling us it’s time for a family reunion!’ He waved at the logo, and sure enough, one of the sons raised his hand in greeting. A regular customer walked up and asked, ‘Hey, you guys ever thought of putting up a welcome committee?’ Everyone burst out laughing as the little dog trotted off, tail wagging.
