Their shit is getting out of hand.... in a good way!

I've been buying lots of auto parts there lately.... at give away pricing. Today, my wifes Tahoe radiator takes a shit at 180k miles, a small crack in the plastic tank right below the inlet connection.

I call around everywhere local... everyone is quoting me on a Spectra Indudtries CU2423 at around $280.

Just for kicks, I punch that part number into Amazon... $117!!! (Delivered for $131.49)

Friggin' crazy ..... dont buy ANYTHING without checkin' ol' Amazon.

I looked around and I just bought a spare for my Dmax, for under $200.

I'll put it on the shelf...

Everywhere else wanted $400+, even for the exact same thing from Spectra....

Dealer is like $900.

I've got an App for my phone that i can scan the barcode most any item and it compare shops for it online.... Amazing how much electronics and other stuff can vary...

Only problem is Canadian shipping can be brutal, luckily if I don't need it in a hurry I've got an Ohio address I can use it's just usually a month delay before I get it. (dad travelling on business)
