I have used Car Fax for several years now, I trust it's findings rather than just "trusting the seller's word"; and it has proved to be a "gem" before we purchased any of our "new to us" used vehicles. I usually buy the package when we are looking, so that I can check on several vehicles at a time. The 1st time was in 2002 when I bought my 98 Ford Explorer, I been looking at 2 of them, but after receiving the car fax on both, I knew right away which one I wanted. The second time was in 2004 and it was for a very sweet looking cherry red 96 Ford Cobra Mustang - my husband had it found on ebay motors - but before he even got the words out of his mouth that he wanted it, I called and got the vin number from the owners so that I could do a car fax on it.. two days later we were driving to pay for it and pick up that Cobra. The third time using Car Fax was for my daughters first car - in 2006, a 1989 Chevy Beretta - sporty little car and a price under $1000.00.. Car fax showed it clean, the previous owner and all the details with it and then after driving it, my daughter had her first car. Fast forward to 2012 - bought another Car Fax package - looking at a very nice 2000 Lincoln LS with only 50,000 miles on it at a local car lot... of course I wanted to see the Car Fax - and the car lot didn't offer it, so I did it on my own.. showed it was a company owned vehicle and all was great.. bought it.. love it, last month husband is wanting a sporty truck - so back to looking around we go - we find a nice 2002 Chevy S-10 ZR2 .. I pull the Car Fax - and find out all about it and then it also shows us other like models that recently sold or are for sale, giving us some bargaining power with the car lot for a better price on this truck. Car Fax has proven time after time that it is more than well worth the money and we won't buy a car without checking the Car Fax First!! Thank You CAR FAX!!!
