Both locations in Harlingen had some Spray can primer on sale while I was looking online. I purchased 1 can from this location and several at the Tyler store, minutes after the Tyler store cancelled and refunded my order cause they Sold Out. I called even verified with manager, OK no problem. 2 days later I go pick up my order at this location "Fst" and they told me they sold out. Even though I purchased online and 2 days later, no refund or any notice that the product was sold out.
Manager tried explaining about the system was slow, I explained the one down the street let me knew right away. Manger did not want to honor or even work with me, just Sorry you SOL, bye.
I've never had an issue with Advanced until now. Waste of time and gas.

A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. 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.
