No more parts and accessories. I found out when I stopped by to get a case of oil and the shelves were almost bare and everything was at 50-70% off.

Nothing worth buying was left.
That's what my Buddy was telling me. Just a brake and tire shop. Advance will handle the parts, I guess. No biggie to me I was never a big PepBoys fan. No real problems with them, but both their nearest stores were 7 miles away. Seven miles south or 7 miles west. Checker Auto was the closest at 1 - 1-1/2 miles out. When O'Reilly's bought out Checker, AutoZone set up across the street, knowing the real competition was gone.
Will Advance be any improvement, or are they all just Samo-Samo?
