Just sent you a Raptor VIN. Carfax doesn't even show an owner and the first entry was at 34,797 miles on 8/20/18. Sold at an auction 12/3/18 which is strange for a low mileage highly sought after truck right?

Just replied.

I've never seen that before. I would venture to guess the dealer kept it and drove it, then sold it on MSO still.

Thats the only thing I can think of but what sense would it make sending a pristine Raptor to auction?

My Hellcat came from the owner of a dealer and it showed him on it as corporate registration

Just depends.

I don't register/title my demos. The first owner would buy it from the dealership with XXXX miles on it, and they would be the first owner, and that's when the warranty would start.

Woh so this could still be under bumper to bumper with a full 3/36?

I still dont see what sense it makes sending a pristine Raptor to auction unless the dealer is extremely lazy and filthy rich. Or there's something wrong with it

Interesting. Would that cause any issues for me? Won't be buying a warranty but could I if I wanted to? Check under the spare tire for strange packages? I dont see why this would be a problem, especially if I go to sell it in a few years

Thanks for looking into this!

No warranty will be with the vehicle, they won't cross country lines. Do you have emissions testing? Mexican trucks typically won't pass.

We do have emissions but it might not be required for a couple years. CarFax said it passed emissions in Chula Vista 2 months ago. Arizona emissions is a breeze compared to CA. They look for check engine lights and that the gas cap locks. Thats it

Thank you for your help, do you think I should be concerned that the vehicle had 5 owners its clean / mainly stock and has 27 K miles on it. The only non stock items are a Hurst shifter and a radio.

Not sure if this is the right area, but I figured it was worth a shot. Does anyone have access to running a Carfax report for me? If you can, I can supply the vin number. Thank you.
