Why, or even how, they would close the independent stores is something I find questionable.

I thought that was odd myself.

After I left, my CarQuest was instantly full of idiots. They would hire people off the internet, and parts knowledge wasn't a requirement. It was weird going across the street to the O'Reilly's (still want to call it Champion) and hearing the stories of how bad that shop became. Apparently most people who went there, went to the O'Reilly's next.
