Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! That would shut anybody up haha what car is that from? That's niceee! Very nice!
That's what I don't like about Auto Zone, they hire anyone....as long as they can use a computer they consider that ok...Idk where they find half the people they hire.

Eh, its just kids trying to make a buck ya know. NAPA IS pretty good, i think that they have a tighter hiring process. It seems like autozone will hire anyone who has interest in motor vehicles. You just have to be careful what you buy there. They ARE trained to use that computer isntead of listening to you about part numbers, which is anoying lol.
I once went through 2 altenators from autozone for a 93 corolla, they just didnt last, finally i payed the premium to buy it at the toyota parts counter, and it lasted until i sold the car. I guess there is truth to it!

Those are some good stories...Civic guy sounds like the man.
I shop at NAPA as well for anything that comes from 'behind the counter'. Spark plugs for my Kawasaki? No problem. Gasket sheet material that can handle gas & oil? Got that too. When I lived in the South, O'Reilly's was my first stop, but they haven't moved up to NY yet.
When I walk into Autozone or Advance Auto, the first thing I Notice is the 'wall of crap'...this random assortment of gaskets, timing sprockets, oil pans, some knockoff air filters, chromey diff covers, etc. I mean what are they for? Who walks in and grabs an exhaust manifold gasket off the shelf? Must be Chevy/Ford smallblock owners?

My O'Reilly's in SC was pretty legit, but still ricey-er than NAPA. Next time I find myself in Autozone or Advance I'm going to find out what all those engine parts are for. I say Chevy 350 or Ford 4.6L
