Anyone know if it is officially open? I don't live anywhere near Houston, just curious how things are going there.

What's messed up is Advance calling Worldpac to look up parts because there to d––b to figure out how to do it themselves
Oh and also to add to my previous statement here about the three WorldQuest locations and where they are etc... I notice someone said “Advance is trying to be Worldpac”... Advance OWNS Worldpac silly! They own Worldpac, CarQuest, AutoPart International to name a few. Advance recently also purchased DieHard batteries, formerly a Sears brand. Advance is not trying to be Worldpac.. They are trying to expand market share in a new area that competitors like Oreilly and Autozone can’t touch. What WorldQuest is doing, is more like XL Parts, but a much wider variety of parts availability as WorldQuest inventory is BOTH Advance Auto Parts AND Worldpac inventory 😁
WorldQuest has three locations in the greater Houston area. Airline drive, Pine Timbers, and a location in Conroe, tx. You must open a commercial account with them (Advance Auto Parts) and speak with the commercial account manager about WorldQuest pricing. You should not use and may not be allowed to use your WorldQuest pricing at an Advance box store as it will lower that stores profit margins. Hope that helps
Wrong worldquest is advance trying to be worldpac. Advance will never be as good nor better than worldpac ever. No they Reina. Separate companies. Advance is stupid but not that stupid.
You guessed right sparky, WorldQuest is indeed worldpac/carquest, new name, same leaders, will go down faster then Debbie in Dallas.
what the heck is "Worldquest"? got an email today about applying/Apex upgrades and noticed that "Worldquest logo would replace the AAP logo on invoices"
only thing I found was on Google (nothing on Starting Line) was it was trademarked, along with Truckquest, and there's a Worldquest RVP in Houston; are we being flipped back to carquest/Worldpac?
Most likely will be another costly flop, no matter what the upper management tries to do, its always too little too late.
