[AT] You can't fix stupid-naming names

[charlie hill]

I think what got me flustered with them was when I was looking
for some parts for my truck that I wasn't familiar with.  I don't remember
exactly what it was I was looking for but it seemed to me that Rock didn't
call the part the same thing that other sites called it and the images 
available
weren't good enough for me to be sure it was right.  Anyway, I'll try them 
again
when I'm not in a hurry.

If you register you can save your particular car information. Then when 
looking for parts, choose the “my saved autos” or whatever it’s called. When 
you do that you’ll also get periodic emails of some of their closeout sales 
for those particular vehicles.

As I’d mentioned before I too didn’t like the site and didn’t use it often. 
Once I found how to just type in the search bar I can find things I’m 
looking for as fast or faster than some of the other parts sites such as O’Reilly 
or Napa.

    It's not the best, but I've seen worse, it's just a kind of drill down
    menu, until you find your part. I can't imagine developing and
    maintaining this website. For me the savings are worth the hassle. Did
    you sign up for them to remember you, I'm wondering if that makes it any
    easier.
