The first Phillips 66 station opened in November 1927 - bulk sales before that.\n\n\n\n\nBy the end of December they had four stations up and running. The story the museum tells goes that the car testing the gas did 66 miles per hour while running on Route 66.\n\nThe stated reason in 1927 didn't mention a car testing gas on Route 66 - it was the API gravity value of their aviation fuel (by 1932 it was up to 69.6).\n\nTheir logo didn't change to look like the Route 66 signs until around August 1930.\n\n\n\n\nAs an aside, Phillips 66 was the name of Bartlesville's very successful A.A.U. league basketball team.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthank you Steve!",
