I went into Advance Auto Parts today to buy a lugnut to replace the
one I stripped changing my tires at the track last night. "Make?"
"Dodge." "Model?" "Dakota." "Engine?" "5.9" "2wd or 4wd"? "2wd."
Was tempted to tell him the 5.9 only comes in 2wd, then decided I
better not confuse him. "Front or back?" "Waitaminute", I said,
"There's a difference between front and back lugnuts?" "Oh yeah!", he
replied. "Ooooookay." Then he frowned, "Hmmmm, your vehicle is not
in the computer." "That's okay", I replied, "Look up a 97 or 98
model. Or look up a Durango, it doesn't matter, they're all the
same." He ignored me. I gave him the stripped lugnut. He proceeded
to take ten minutes rummaging around in the back through the stock
until he found one that looked like the one I gave him. Ahhhhhh,
don't you just love auto parts stores? <grin>
