yeah I love going in there for windshield wipers and they ask if I have a 4cyl or 6cyl motor... if it's manual or auto.... if it's 4x4 or 2x4...

The guy on the phone while he tries to be a MAN, he fails miserably!!!

He should have went down there, did the bitchin, then left and bought from a different store!! FUCKIN MORON!!

Well that's one good thing about living in this area of NC which is the center of NASCAR country. (enter redneck jokes here

)

AT least most of the kids that work around the auto shops here seem very helpful and fairly knowledgable. They like performance cars and bikes and that's a good thing.

He looks at the phone....picks it up...and says, "Uhh Autzone, may I help you?"
I yell into MY phone, "IT'S ME FUCKER!!!" He jumps and hangs up.

I've had similar experiences at ALL auto parts places, save one old shop I used to have a regular relationship with (had an account with them). Even then, only perhaps two cats in the fucking store had a clue, and if they weren't there, I'd call back.

Getting parts is always a clusterfuck.

National parts stores typically only compound such a difficult situation.

Add a phone, and you're just askin' fer it.

I've had to have Advanced price match their own website.
