    That's the shadiest part. I have no doubt they pulled a CarFax and knew about the rollback which makes that a blatant lie.

    Lame! I'm going to go get my deposit back today after work. This vehicle just doesn't feel like a good idea to me. My heart tells me yes, my gut tells me no. Too bad, I was really looking forward to getting into the VX community sooner then later.

    Let us know how it all goes Lang.

    It would be funny if you and I showed up there at the same time and confronted that Dildo!

    You could always have a little fun with him in the process. Show up at the same time and start a bidding war to get him all excited. Take the bidding up as high as you both wanted, then just stop, state that you are both aware of the shady odometer situation, and walk out.

    The vin number tells you the year. The 8th number from the end tells you the year. That 1 tells you that it is an 01.. If it was a 99 or 00 there would be a letter there instead. The vin should be ask over the vehicle, inside the door panel, on the firewall, on the dash, on the motor itself, I believe on the rear axle too

    And I noticed when I had the grill out putting in my fog/driving lights that the VIN was on the front cladding on the passenger side.
