You're right about the electric bill, with all of those neon transformers gulping down the juice. This must have been sponsored by the oil company, surely it cost more to build and maintain the sign than the whole gasoline station was worth.
The Hi-Pointe station has consistently had an oversized sign there since then. They actually just redid it with a newly updated Amoco sign. Google Hi Pointe Amoco sign to see history of the signs they've had.
Immagine how much Gasoline you would have to sell everyday to pay that electric bill.
