This thread brought me a chuckle as I've dealt with a few of the Napas listed here. I LOVED the one in South Plainfield. When I lived in Somerset, I did all of my wrenching in my uncle's garage, and I can't remember how many times I made trips (Sometimes MULTIPLE trips) to that shop ON A SUNDAY for parts. They were awesome to deal with. Don't know if they're still open on Sundays.

I had to go to the Flemington store once many years ago when my starter went. The guy working there didn't know his arse from his elbow.

Now that I'm in the great white north that is Sussex County, I use the Napa in Sussex Boro. While they don't always have the part I need on hand, they can usually get it for me by three o'clock in the afternoon that day.

I've used the Advance in Franklin Borough a few times. Decent, friendly folks who didn't let me down. The one in Hampton: Not only friendly, but offered me tools to replace my serpentine belt and idler pulley in the parking lot. Good stuff.
