In that year the production of passenger cars began . The brand name was Tulsa , possibly also Oilflyer . The focus, however, was on commercial vehicles . One source says the company did not survive in 1913. On the other hand, there is evidence that commercial vehicles were manufactured until 1916.

The Witt-Thompson Motor Company moved into the plant a few years later and also produced Tulsa brand cars.
