Finally gettin a Frickin AutoZone close by!
There's one being built about 2 miles from where I live...right on my way home from work! Funny thing is there's a fairly new Strauss Auto right across the street from it...but they never seem to have what I need...hopefully the Zone will have a better selection

good luck to you. most of the time i go shopping for stuff around here people are asking me what it is and what it does. i can give them part numbers and they still look at me with a dumbfounded look in their eyes. case in point. i went to oreily's. told the guy i need 8 NGK TR6 plugs. he looks it up in the computer. says NGK doesn't make them. I said, yes they do. if you don't have them let me know. He says, 8TR6 plugs. NGK's plugs start with a letter, not a number. I said no ****, i need 8 as in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 spark plugs with the code of TR6. Talk about feeling dumb as dog **** afterwards. i was amused.

Well autozone is better than nothing. We have one about 10 min from my house run by women and all there are is girls in there who don't know jack crap about cars. I had to go in there with the parts number I got on monroes website to get shocks because they couldn't find them. I swear this has happened to me 2 times now in that store, looking for a wheel bearing and shocks. They ask make model blah blah then she askes me if my truck is front wheel drive. I almost walked out of the store. I hate it when they ask me things like are you sure it's not 4 wheel drive or whatever. I mean yeah it's my truck I'm pretty sure I know what's in it.

They just opened an Advance near me, what jokers. Gave them exact part numbers on 3 parts, and they still couldnt do it w/o application. I finally asked the manger to just go find the parts because "A S10 never came with a V8", he finally went back and looked and got me the parts.
The Auto zone by me is waayy better, they have at least one guy who knows what he is doing. The rest are women who are clueless.
