Just out of curiosity.
I order the majority of my stuff from RockAuto, or Amazon if I need fast shipping. I prefer getting the OEM part if I can.
I used to work in supply chain for NAPA corporate and I will say that out of all of the aftermarket brands, NAPA is definitely the best. If I need something quickly in a pinch I will get it at NAPA.
Autozone and O’Reilly brands are OK as far as quality, and the price reflects it. Advanced Auto is crap.
A lot of NAPA-branded stuff is made by the OEM suppliers too.

Ill use pull your part junk yards for my gmc beater but mostly dealer for the family rides.

Pull a part works if I’m grabbing something for the interior or a low labor job like an alternator or ignition coil or something.
If it’s a job that involves at least an hour of time for the job I’m gonna get a new part so I don’t have to replace it again after it fails in a year.

Either a salvage yard or O'Reilly, Autozone, or Advance.

Whichever auto parts store is closest.

This^. I can't remember the last time that I've bought car parts as a replacement and did it myself.

At one time that was true, but that hasn't been the case for a while now. NAPA is crap nowadays.

Nothing but NAPA! Anytime I've moved or been transferred the first place I hit is the NAPA store to introduce myself. But I'm a farmer by birth,mechanic by trade.

Speaking of Napa...Go check out the new store on Airline between Siegen and Jefferson across from the old Troop A.
