FUCK COPHERS! I was there today getting some things. They are WAY overpriced now. I remember 10 years ago you could get the parts you need for a fair price, but not anymore, and all of the counter guys are dick heads.
I grabbed a coil pack off of a Ford. The same coil pack used on most fords since the mid 90's. They wanted $39.99 plus $5 core for it. I told him no thanks. He starts spouting off so I paid for the rest of my shit and left. I called NAPA, I can get a brand new one for $54. So he was trying to sell me a used one that god knows if it works for $10 less than a new one with a 1 year warranty.

Someone should make a sticky with the names and addresses of local junkyards. It would definately be helpful for everyone.
