well the people at my local autozone dont know crap about cars... even ther computers dont know crap about cars... i went there the first time to get spark plugs and i told them i have a 1998 Toyota Corolla LE, 1.8 L... and they gave me at first Autolite spark plugs, then drive all the way home and there not the right kind.... drive all the way back, with my old spark plugs from my cars engine, and the lady worker gives Bosch Spark Plugs.... Ughh Now my Car sounds kinda funny, and i bought from them a set of spark plug wires (Duralast Brand/ Auto zones brand) and they keep coming unloose from the part you plug it in. not the spark plug boot... Ughhh I am never going to autozone to get anything, besides anything not dealing with the engine.... F-U AUTOZONE
The Autozone here employs idiots too.
I asked for 3ft of 1/4" vacuum hose? The guy asks, for what model car? (Wanting to look it up on the computer.)
I said, I just need 3ft of 1/4" vacuum hose. He repeats " for what model car?"
I said," isn't that a spool of 1/4" vacuum hose behind you?" He says, "yes, for what model car?"
I wanted to just bitch slap him. Finally I said, "can you just cut me 3ft. of that hose right there?"
He did it, with an attitude. Haven't been back since.

I can understand if they want that info for marketing purposes, to see what makes/models they might should stock parts for, but he could have explained that to you-- or just given up and cut you your 3' of 1/4" vacuum hose (without attitude).
