Get a Carfax Report for Fellow Rokslider

[treillw]

Anyone have the ability to help out a fellow Rokslider by getting a carfax report or similar?

PM me for VIN.

Thanks!

Uh...... if it's listed on Cars.com or Autotrader they almost always include a Carfax report with the listing. If it's private party ask them to provide one for you. And worse case scenario, you pay $45 and buy one.

Send me your VIN and I'll hook you up

be careful buying a vehicle based on the carfax alone. I worked in a body shop and we saw many cars with poor quality prior repairs. Many customers said they had a clean carfax, but clearly the vehicle had been wrecked or had prior body repairs.

i personally drove 2 trucks from one dealership with clean carfax reports, and both had been wrecked. I pointed this out to the salesman. His response was 'the carfax does show it was ever wrecked'.

You guys do realize that you need the Vin number to pull a Carfax right?

Of course

Good idea asking btw. Likely some folks with dealerships or other connections that get them for free or have a large amount of them to use.

I spent $100 to get a few while I was car shopping and felt like it was a waste.

Are you referring to the vehicle identification number number? Sorry I had to haha

The slide is one of the most helpful group there is.

I wish I could help people out but all I can do is confirm how bad the government is at spending your tax money.

Carfax had one of the best marketing campaigns I’ve ever seen in my life

They advertised the crap out of a product nobody ever heard of until everybody demanded the “free carfax”

Then all the car dealers were basically forced to buy into the program.



I pay $1500.00 per month to Carfax!!!

Slight derail here but whats the vehicle report scam that they try to pull when you are selling? I sold a truck last month and kept getting people saying they were interested but that I had to buy a certain vehicle history report they wanted. Is it a fake site that just steals my CC info if I fall for it?

Yeah... I reimburse your expence once I get to the ATM machine.
