My wife and I are very interested in purchasing a 2015 Leisure Travel Class C RV, which is located about 450 miles from where we live. Before doing anything further we wanted detailed information on the RV from an independent source - not the seller.
From past experience buying used cars we knew the importance of using the vehicle VIN # as a way to research vehicle condition, possible ownership/title/lien problems, potential hidden mechanical/chassis problems from accidents, market value, etc.
We used carhistory.org from a Google search. We received a very detailed report in less than about 10 minutes covering everything we needed to know.
Using a VIN search service should be a must for anyone looking to purchase a used vehicle or any kind.
