Fuck autozone and fuck National Auto here as well. I can't blame anybody for ordering parts on line if you don't have an independant owned parts place left in your town though. The quality is going to be shitty no-matter where it comes from anymore it seems, so why not I guess.
This Napa here, they've been in business same family for 30 years. Duaghter had cancer when she was young, son is a nice kid that has and on and off drug problem, but a real good parts guy. They lost their mom a year ago to a rare lung issue. And when I walk in with a bearing off of an old piece of equipment, they don't ask me 'what year make and model car is it off of?' The micrometer comes out and we measure it up and figure it out. Same with odd-ball belts that the # faded off of. Can't get that at box-store parts places.
