Autozone vs Napa vs Carquest
Posted on 8/2/18 at 8:19 pm

Autoparts store quandary: Growing up, my dad used Autozone as it was the only nearby auto parts store. Where I live now has Napa, Autozone, and Carquest autoparts roughly equidistant. Been going to Autozone out of habit, but wondering if the other places are better. Could just go to the other 2, but thought I'd throw it out to OT ballers and save me some trouble.

I prefer AutoZone as a first choice if I need it now. Then Napa but they usually don’t have it, then CarQuest.
ETA: Traveler - RockAuto first, if time allows.

No O'Reilly's?

Not sure but I use Napa or O’Reilly. O’Reillys seems to be like the chic fil a of autoparts store with good service.

Rockauto, Amazon or EBay.

Will always avoid b/c of their annoying commercial run 20 times during SEC football games on CBS.

They all have websites, I go to whatever place has what I need in stock and for the cheapest price.
Went today a got a battery from walmart because they were $10 cheaper than all the autoparts stores.
$10 isnt much, but its not like these stores actually provide any guidance or assistance anymore.

agreed...my O'Reillys is always so pleasant and helpful. My local Autozone by contrast is awash in culcha y cultura and very frustrating.

I know the owner of the napa store nearby. He & his guys give me the corporate discount on parts and it usually works out to a good deal.

Rockauto and amazon

We still have one of these in Belzoni, Ms. When Western Auto shut down they bought the store, kept the name.

NAPA usually, absolutely will never get a starter from AutoZone again.

I had good luck with car quest

Napa and Carquest are independently owned. You can get everything from semi truck parts, tractor parts, and good quality electrical components with their Belkin line (Napa). The people that work there are there because they want to be.
