Where do you guys shop??
« on: December 10, 2010, 11:15:48 pm »
I was just kind of curious what your guys parts store of choice is and why.  I'll start.  I prefer to use O'Reilly but I will try our NAPA on certain items if O'Reilly is out of stock and I need it same day.

Napa is my first choice because the guys usually know, well, something and the parts are awesome. Rockauto.com comes in second for good pricing and OEM parts.

Checker Oreilly's for EVERYTHING I can get. I absolutely hate heck Zone. And Napa is overpriced, but I go there if Checker doesn't have what I need. Like, 2 nights ago, had to go to napa to get the mixture screw tool.

I use Autozone and Carquest. I have commercial accounts but they take real good care of me so I rarely go to anyone else anymore.

i agree w/ Zieg, I go to the 'zone for stuff that can't be messed up, belts, oil, filters, etc...Then for the technical info and parts, I go to NAPA, the staff know their stuff.  I go to Advance auto too sometimes.

I usually go to O'Reilly's first (it used to be Hi-Lo Auto Parts years ago) and they always carried a lot of truck parts and stuff. Then to Auto -Zone and Advance. It depends on what I need too. Advance has more selection of paint and body stuff then the other two.

NAPA, Autozone, O'Rielys, Adavanced Auto.  Generally in that order.

I use advance auto as first choice, then Oreillys then The local Mom n Pop Store for hard to find Items.  The advance around here has the best people and customer service in winder.
