Gasoline as we know it was a waste product that long ago, automobile engines were run on kerosene. From my research I am pretty sure 1905 and thereafter is when gasoline was the fuel to run automobiles.

A relative told me that the price of gas in the early to mid 1900's was around 10 cents per gallon.

The first cars were not available to the public before 1908 (a Benz). At that time gasoline was an unwanted by-product of kerosene production and was considered waste and thrown away.
