About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an old delivery driver pulled up to Valvoline with something unusual in his truck bed—a large wooden crate marked ‘Top Secret’. Curious mechanics peered inside but found only a mysterious note reading: ‘Open only if you love cars as much as I do.’ Finally, one brave mechanic opened it and out popped a tiny talking gremlin who started singing about oil changes. Turned out he was just a prank from a regular who loved cars—and now everyone at Valvoline has their own pet gremlin helper.
2. A curious neighbor parked their bicycle outside Valvoline one afternoon and started chatting with the mechanic about strange noises coming from their tires. The next day, every tire on that street seemed to develop mysterious hums. Soon enough, everyone in town was bringing their bikes for a ‘tune-up.’ Even the local mailman stopped by—his letters were mysteriously delivered faster than ever before. Finally, after weeks of tire chatter, an old mechanic’s joke became clear: Valvoline had just given the entire neighborhood a good ol’ fashioned bike race.
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Valvoline's lot, only to be greeted by the eerie sound of laughter coming from inside the workshop. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old mechanic laughing heartily while working on an ancient car. ‘Just another night at Valvoline,’ the mechanic said, noticing him for the first time. The delivery driver relaxed, realizing it was just an eccentric local who loved his job too much.
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled into Valvoline’s dimly lit lot, drawn by the faint glow of neon lights. As he approached the entrance, he noticed an odd figure standing motionless near the pumps—an old man wearing a trench coat, holding a flashlight that cast eerie shadows. As the delivery driver got closer, the old man raised his hand in greeting and said, ‘Evenin’, sonny. Need some gas for your rig?’ The driver nodded, confused but amused, and replied, ‘Actually, I was just checking if you needed help with something.’ With a twinkle in his eye, the man winked and pointed towards the empty pump, whispering, ‘Just fill ’er up with good vibes!’
