This excerpt taken from the ORLY 10-Q filed Nov 8, 2005.

Competition

We compete with a large number of retail (DIY) and wholesale (professional installers) automotive aftermarket product suppliers. The distribution of automotive aftermarket products is a highly competitive industry, particularly in the more densely populated market areas that we serve. Competitors include national and regional automotive parts chains, independently owned parts stores (some of which are associated with national auto parts distributors or associations), automobile dealerships, mass or general merchandise, discount and convenience chains that carry automotive products, independent warehouse distributors and parts stores and national warehouse distributors and associations. Some of our competitors are larger than we are and have greater financial resources. In addition, some of our competitors are smaller than we are overall but have a greater presence than we do in a particular market. For a list of our principal competitors, see the ''Competition'' section of Item 1 to our 2004 Form 10-K.
