Default Pronunciation of "Valeo"

is it "val-ee-oh" or is it "va-lay-oh" I pronounced it "va-lay-oh" to the guy at the parts counter (inbred redneck) and he stared at me like I had a dick growing out of my forehead.

Default Call 1 812 523 5200...

you'll hear their announcement. It sounds like "va-ley-oh" to me, with the accent on 'va'.
