Thank you Carfax! You saved me! I was looking at a 2006 toyota tacoma truck with 62000 miles on Craigs list, and after connecting with the man selling the truck, i had him text me the VIN number so i could carfax it. everything checked out on carfax. I made the 2 hour trip to where he was located, and after negotiating on the price, we agreed on the sale. I am standing about 10 feet from him, as he was taking down my information for the sale on the hood of the truck. The title is next to him, and as i glance over at the title, the vin number "bolds out" towards me. I shake my head and walk over to the title. The VIN number was NOT the same as the one he sent me. ( The only way i knew is that the original one he sent me had a bunch of zeros at the end and i remember wondering if they were zeros or letter O's. the one in front of me had ones and sevens). I pulled up the text and compared it to the title of the truck in front of me. sure enough it was a different number. He said that he had a couple of the same model trucks and must have sent me the wrong one. What was i to do? CARFAX. Well my phone was dying and we were at a gas station at 8pm. I got on line on my phone and pulled up the information, and to my suprise, the truck was serviced 5 days previous at a toyota dealership. the milage? 148,000. As soon as i see the milage, my phone dies and the guy gives me this look as if he didn't know the milage was changed. I told him where he could go, and i would go back home with out my truck.... thank GOD. and CARFAX
