Does parts stores like Napa supply them or is it a gmc "vendor" type item. I removed my water heater this week and fluid spew! Anyway not worried about that part of the embarrassing story.
But my lower hose weeped, and I ordered one sometime back from JimK. So I figured now is a good time to change hoses. Now I need a upper one and didn't know if places like Napa, AutoZone carry them so I can pick one up in a hurry.

Hard headed me wanted the Hose faster, so I called Napa. After talking to a knuckle head at Napa and wasting tons of my time decided just call JimK. Called there talked to Nick. Now know I'll just get the right one. I think sometimes I forget how precious time is. I don't know what the hose cost at Napa Vs JimK but my time is worth more then talking to a phat head on the phone at Napa who knows nothing.

Gary B,
I need to agree with you. Use the list , but when you do not make
contact, then call as I do know some people that is not on the list
that will help.
Again I poped of the words without giving it a thought.
