anyone have a CARFAX deal?

[anomad]

Anyone pull a CARFAX for me? I'd be happy to buy you some beer or whatever.

I want to know if the seller is feeding me a load of BS or not. I think it might have been a rental. (US rentals type place)

Unless the repair shop sent info to carfax or ins co, what they do not want you to see never appears.

It checks out mechanically, I want to know its ownership history...

Look for a little white arrow next to the gas pump icon on the car fuel gauge. Rental cars will most often times have this little white arrow that tells you which side the fuel cap is on. Most other non rentals will not have this arrow. See below...

RENTAL



NONRENTAL

Carfaux is worthless
I bought a salvage/wreck with a "spotless" carfax

if the dealer is all gung-ho on it, have him print it out for you

You said it better and to the point. Yes carfax is useless. great sales pitch, for the lot, bad for the buyer.
But, But the carfax was good.
What happened to dealers pitching the "Free" carfax report for every used car sold??

I'm aware CARFAX scams the dealers and their customers this way.

I only deal private party and want to know if i'm being fed a line about the original owner. One way to possibly discover that is through one of these services.

Have the seller pay for it.

I would rather get a FREE Car Fox than copy of Car Fax.
