Am I wrong? Isn't that a little ridiculous?

Default What do you mean?
They said you can't buy them because it doesn't show up in their cross-reference?

Default "That plug is not listed for your vehicle, sir. I can't sell it to you." =\
I just stood there with that "WTFuggles??" look on my face.

Default Exactly =P
And I was saying, "I realize that and I don't care. I still want them." Which got a, "I apologize sir. That plug is not listed for your vehicle."

I'll go to a different one tomorrow and NOT include my vehicle info.

Default I'm still considering the BKR6Es...but I'm also semi-lazy as well ; ) *edit*
I should probably just get those and get over it. I was just looking for a nice platinum plug that I could change every 20k or so. Oh, and I had that DV swapped out for the 710N and now she's feeling much better =) I definitely need to change the plugs, though...because she's still a tad poochy.

Default I just give them the spark plug part number and won't tell them the car.
Luckily the guys at the Advance Auto Parts are cool and understand why I want a plug that's not listed. I never liked AutoZone, they have this elitist atitude, even though they are morons.
