There's still a Gulf station one town over from me. I don't know if it's independently owned and they just kept the signage, or if Gulf as a chain still exists and is just much diminished, or what.
Also, all modern cars still say "unleaded only" on them somewhere, just in a less conspicuous spot since you functionally can't buy leaded gasoline outside of an airfield anymore. Mine says it on the yellow sticker on the back of the fuel flap.
I was miffed my new (12 years old at this point) car didn't come with the glow-plug lighter, but I grabbed a random one from a beater at the junkyard and stuck it in the socket and was delighted to discover that it still worked. My first car had one, but the little catch on it was broken so when it was done heating up and popped out, it would shoot out of the socket and wind up under your seats. Fun times.
