I visited the Advance Auto Parts in Lewis Center last June 9, 2018. It was manned by a condescending sales tech that I had to pause and went to Auto Zone at Sancus. I was trying to find out what is wrong with my Jeep and he acted like I did not know my SUV.
I DON’T! So rather than be condescending, and being a “ BIG MAN BEHIND THE COUNTER”, offer to be more helpful next time.

The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
