Favorite parts store/source

Locally: Carquest, they usually have the parts and the knowledge to find them if they are not "standard" to my specific car. If I have no other choice I will go to Autozone but it's rare to find anyone there that knows more than how to fill a gas tank or check a battery. For on-line, I usually use Summit and occasionally Jegs.

I detest our Autozone and only go there as a last resort even though it is the closest. Our Oreilly's is great, has knowledgable counter people and the paper catalogs. Advance and their discounts is good too but their parts knowledge is lacking. They couldn't even get the correct rotor for a 2005 Malibu Classic until I had them look up a 2003. I don't but any house brands for the most part.

I do eBay alot because there is still a lot of NORS and NOS American made parts floating around at decent prices.
