Whom ever I use, if at all possible, I look it up on their website, I then print it off, and then take them a copy and say this is what I want....just works out a whole bunch better for me in general 99.9% of the time.

Yeah, I look it up and check to see if they have it (they usually do not) so then I call them so they can order it and I can pick it up a day or two later.

It's a 50+ mile round trip to the nearest parts store.

Re: What's your favorite and your best?

For random everyday things I go to advanced or autozone. The NAPA here closed a few months ago . For anything else I go to East Coast speed in Middletown . The three counter guys are gear heads and know what they are talking about. Place has been in the same spot since 1967 original owner and the head counter guy has been there since it opened

Re: What's your favorite and your best?

I use Motion Auto (Federated). My wife works there and I get a sweet discount.
They close early, so I use O'Reilly after 5:00, they give me a little discount too.
I use NAPA for a few things (I like their suspension components), but I NEVER buy electrical parts from NAPA, I always had bad luck with NAPA electronics.
AutoZone is usually the last place I look, nothing against Auto Zone, just not my go-to.
