Are you not at a dealership anymore? Not only is he stupid...he's overpaying too. Could get better deals through rockauto and have a better selection of brands.

Left the Kia dealer in July got tired of a crappy work load and watching a hack get fed
Ain't nobody got time for shipping or paying more for shipping than part. Going to federated is probably just as good of a price with smarter people and better parts hell even the local NAPA has smarter people

Have you ever used rock Auto? Why do you need smart people at a parts store? I just need someone to diddle on a computer and walk to the back and get a part. I've used rock Auto quite a bit and have never had a bad experience. Even after shipping they're cheaper than local parts stores.

I use Rockauto if I have time to wait for the parts to come in.

I do for personal vehicles when I don't need something that day. In business it's not as easy to wait for shipping. Often times their shipping will price them out unless it's something you can wait for the longest shipping option and find everything out of 1 warehouse
You also need that keyboard diddler to be smart enough to pick up the right part number

We have a rock Auto warehouse pretty close evidently. I get most stuff next day but usually in 2.

Relaxing weekend at the Beaver house. Temps going into the high 50's today.

Zap- we drove past the "Giant Dicks" sign yesterday -- laugh every time we go by.

People in general are idiots so I rarely put much weight behind reviews like that. I can tell you my experiences with them have all been good going back ~10 years. I ordered an abs sensor several years ago. They double shipped it so I got 2. I emailed them telling them and got a return label to mail the extra back. I dropped it off and then started working on the truck. Had trouble with the one I kept so I was kicking myself about returning the extra before working on it. Emailed them telling them I still had she problems. In less than 10 minutes a guy called me to say he would over night the part back to me. I ended up getting the one I had to work but that experience has always stuck with me. You guys use whoever you want but I'll stick with rockauto.

Started working on my 5er hitch today cleaning it up. I had Reese send me all new stickers for it. Today I did a small section with a whiz wheel and painted it with POR-15. Didn't come out as good as I hoped. Can see brush strokes in it and it has quite a few air bubbles. Think maybe my first coat was too thick?? It is what it is at this point but I'm going to read some and see if I can figure out how to get that coat on smoother.

I've received wrong parts from Rock Auto also. They have a better percentage rate than most Napas I've dealt with though

0rion do you still smoke the briskets and other meats? Brisket is just so expensive to buy nowadays.
