Nope, still a moron. I get the vin decoder and it just tells me specs. Not previous owners or anything else.

It's not going to tell you the previous owners information...it is just going to tell you how many previous owners there were.

Nice to know that my PO lied about replacing the OD. He said he replaced it and it had only 175K. I knew better based on the condition. I still got a deal.

The PO I got the jeep from never registered it and there is proof that the OD was higher than 175K in 2001 haha.

9 Owners she has gone around the block a few times haha
well its about to hit 300K but at-least I know the truth now.

Wooo the seller didn't lie to me! 3rd owner, second owner only owned for 8000 miles. Pretty much a single owner vehicle, no accidents, nothing reportable .

Well, I'm not sure I like what this is telling me. It does confirm what I thought about it tho. It was originally a lease vehicle from California. It was in a "ACCIDENT OR VEHICLE DAMAGE REPORTED: NON-COLLISION" in 2001 and "COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE (Case #:10332294)
VEHICLE DAMAGE REPORTED AS DISABLING" in 2002.

I have always suspected front end damage on this thing, but could never tell for sure. The front end (Hood, fenders, bumpers, trim, etc.) have junkyard numbers on them. The fenders are held in with self tapping screws (original holes are messed up or bent in most areas).

Now if I can just figure out my high idle issue. lol

I know it's not going to give me previous owners info. It does not tell me anything about how many owners, mileage, nothing. Just technical specs on the vehicle.
