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?
