CarFax Request

Does anyone out there have a CarFax account and would you be willing to run a VIN or 2 for me? If so, I'll PM you the VINs.

Thanks,

Rod

My trophy wife says she'll trade her car for your bimmer. I'd even subscribe to CarFax for the trade, Just sayin'

No thanks. She's probably had a CAT in that car. I'd sneeze for the next decade! My eyes usually swell up, too. It's not a pretty sight.

When you guys had Maynard (may that GIGANTIC cat rest in peace), I'd always pop a Benadryl before I'd come over for dinner. I'm sure you guys just thought I was socially inept, but I was really just comatose because of the antihistamine!

Still looking for a CarFax!

Thanks. Someone here helped me and I appreciate it very much.

To the top!

The dealer will give an Autocheck, but I would like a carfax as a back-up.

NEVER trust the data the dealers provide, even when they're providing a CarFax report. Dealers have ways of getting the reports to hide nad information while looking like a complete report. Shortly after Katrina, flood damaged autos were being bought and ship to places like CO and most of the reports customers were seeing didn't say anything about the flood damage. Also, even the most honest reports rely on information that was reported/put into the system. Much of what happens to vehicles never gets reported.

What he said. We've been burned many a time taking a car in with nothing on CF and then a tech gets into the car and you find signs things have been replaced that shouldn't have. Carfax simply reports whats been reported.

Thanks for the warnings.
