Pep Boys is a US auto service chain with about 800 locations nationwide offering tires, brakes, oil changes, alignment, batteries, A/C, suspension, and engine diagnostics, owned by Icahn Automotive Group LLC since 2015 (part of Carl Icahn’s IEP holdings), founded in 1921 in Philadelphia by Manny Rosenfeld, Moe Strauss, and Graham “Jack” Jackson under the iconic “Manny, Moe & Jack” mascot branding that has remained the chain’s identity for more than a century.

The questions readers actually ask: what time does Pep Boys open today, when does the shop close, are they open Sunday or Saturday, are they open on Thanksgiving or Christmas, and the differences between current Pep Boys and the older retail-parts-store format.

Two Pep Boys specific things worth knowing: most stores run 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Sunday (some smaller-market stores closed Sunday), with longer Saturday hours than competitor Midas which closes 6:00 PM Saturday. Pep Boys completed a strategic pivot to service-focused operations after the 2022 sale of the retail aftermarket parts business to Bridgestone Americas; the chain still has tire showrooms inside most service centers but the deep retail-parts-store format that defined Pep Boys for decades has been retired at most locations. Aggressive-M&A tire-service competitor Mavis Tires & Brakes took the opposite trajectory and grew to about 2,000 locations through the 2018 NTB acquisition and a string of smaller chain pickups.

What happened to the Pep Boys retail parts store format?

Pep Boys completed a strategic pivot to service-focused operations after Icahn Automotive sold the retail aftermarket parts business to Bridgestone Americas in 2022. The deep retail-parts-store format that defined Pep Boys for decades (the long aisles of replacement parts, accessories, performance gear) has been retired at most locations; tire showrooms remain inside most service centers but most retail-floor inventory has been removed. The chain now competes more directly with service-only chains like Midas and Firestone Complete Auto Care than with retail parts chains like AutoZone.

Who are Manny, Moe, and Jack at Pep Boys?

Manny, Moe, and Jack are the iconic Pep Boys mascots, named after the original three founders: Manny Rosenfeld, Moe Strauss, and Graham 'Jack' Jackson, who founded the chain in 1921 in Philadelphia. The original storefront was called 'Pep Auto Supplies'; the 'Pep Boys' name and Manny-Moe-Jack mascot trio came shortly after as customers started referring to them as 'the Pep Boys.' The trio of caricature faces has remained the chain's primary brand identity for over 100 years and is one of the longest-running mascot identities in US retail.

How does Pep Boys compare to Firestone, Midas, and Jiffy Lube?

All four are auto service chains but cover different scopes. Jiffy Lube and Valvoline Instant Oil Change are quick-lube only (drive-in oil changes; no brake or tire work). Midas is full-service with brakes and exhaust focus and most stores closed Sunday. Firestone Complete Auto Care is full-service with tire-and-alignment focus and 7:00 AM open Mon-Sat. Pep Boys is full-service with the longest Saturday hours (7:00 PM close) and includes a tire showroom inside the service center. Hours pattern: Pep Boys 8am-7pm Mon-Sat, 9am-5pm Sun; Firestone 7am-7pm Mon-Fri, 7am-6pm Sat, 9am-5pm Sun; Midas 7:30am-6pm Mon-Sat, closed Sun at most franchises.
