Carfax is kind of a waste of time…my S4 had a clean carfax when in fact it was involved in an accident. ---

I registered a car with a title that said 89k and the odometer said 68k. I told the Schenectady DMV that the Alabama DMV (Alabama title and Tennessee plates on the car) mustve meant 8900 instead of 89000 and they registered it for me. I had nothing to do with changing the odometer and didnt care since I traded a $600 truck for it. ---
