Really?  Hmmm.  I'd bet there is still some kind of fee like a franchise fee
at least for advertising.  Who pays for TV ads or the sponsorship for
Michael Waltrip's NASCAR racer?  I'm sure everybody has to pony up something
or else they're getting free advertising.  Interesting though, I though they
were a franchise as well.  I wonder, do they have to buy from a NAPA
warehouse or are they free to buy from any supplier?
