I’d like to share a little something with my friends on T-Nation, I bought 10 VIN history checks from Carfax, but only used 3. If you want the history of a used car/truck/SUV than send me the VIN and I’ll run it for you and send you the results. PM me if you’d like to keep it off the forum, or post the VIN in this thread. Merry Christmas!
Wish this had been around a month ago. Carfax is annoying though. Do you have to deal with all sorts of email offers for car insurance, etc?

I clicked on the “don’t email me your offers” option, so far I’ve not recieved any junk. Carfax is expensive too, I paid $35 for 10 VINs, and it’s only good for 30 days! Here’s the text version of the VIN report- tis is a 2000 Sienna I passed on after reading the history. Too many owners, leased, and reported accident.
