This is interesting that you bring up the name "TULSA". This brings me to thinking of the old gasoline brands that used to exist 50 years ago.

A few I can think of; Flying A, Cities Service (now Citgo), Sinclair, Jenny, Tulsa, Esso (now Mobil-Exxon), Atlantic Richfield (now ARCO), Phillips.

I'm confident I have missed some. Does anyone have some more to add ?
