Cbeck the facts: The world’s first purpose-built gas station was constructed in St. Louis, Missouri in 1905 at 420 South Theresa Avenue. The second gas station was constructed in 1907 by Standard Oil of California (now Chevron) in Seattle, Washington, at what is now Pier 32.

Where did you get that crap? Gas stations opened in 1905 and the Model T in 1908.
