About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Valvoline for an oil change. As he walked in, he noticed something odd on the counter—a small, handwritten sign reading ‘Free Oil Change if You Find This.’ Curious, he glanced around and spotted a rusty old keychain with a faded tag that read simply ‘Lucky Keychain.’ The delivery driver picked it up, shrugged, and decided to keep it as good luck. A few weeks later, while dropping off some packages, he overheard a neighbor saying, 'I wonder who’ll get the free oil change today?' Turns out, the Lucky Keychain had been found again—by another delivery driver! And so, every month or so, someone would show up at Valvoline with the same old keychain, laughing and receiving their complimentary oil change.
2. At dawn, when most mechanics were just stretching their legs, an old pickup truck pulled into Valvoline with its engine sputtering like an old timer's cough. The mechanic looked under the hood and shook his head. ‘This baby’s seen better days,’ he muttered. After a few minutes of tinkering, he popped up with a grin: 'She’ll be right as rain!' The owner climbed out, stretched, yawned, and said, 'Thanks again, Valvoline.' And so began another day in the quiet life of a small-town garage.
3. While waiting for his car’s service, a regular muttered under his breath, ‘I wonder if they use magic oil here?’ The mechanic nodded and replied, ‘Not exactly, but it sure works wonders!’ A delivery driver overheard the conversation and asked curiously, ‘Magic oil? That sounds fancy!’ The mechanic winked and said, ‘It’s just our special blend of expertise and care.’ As the driver drove away, he mumbled, ‘Guess I’ll never know…’
4. While waiting for his car’s service, a mechanic noticed something peculiar on the shop’s signboard: ‘If your engine sounds like a dinosaur, bring it in—we’ve got T-Rex oil!’ A delivery driver walked in complaining that his truck sounded like an angry pterodactyl. The mechanic grinned and replied, 'No worries, sir! We’ll get you some Pteranodon power!' A few hours later, as the driver left with a smile, everyone agreed Valvoline really did have magic oil.
