Evan,
    Try to see the bigger picture here.   I think what
carfax really wants?? is to make money.      What
CarFax does not want to see is someone on the list
selling carFax services and keeping the cash.
Running CarFax for someone on the list is more like
free advertising for CarFax as many list memebers like
myself will actually pay for the service when we
really need it.   Evan there really are more important
issues out there when it comes to ethics.   Like tax
breaks for oil companies, running without an o2
sensor....   regards gary

Well, if you think the Vanagon list should be
considered a public
forum, that's fine with me. Because anyone who
advertises more than three
new or used vehicles a year on a public forum like the
Vanagon list
should have a vaild dealer's license, depending on
state and local laws.

I mean, what's personal use? Vehicle titled and
insured in your name?
Immediate family? close friends,or just the next door
neighbor?

I always thought th Vanagon list was a private
organization.

>It goes on to say, "...redistribution of CARFAX
Reports is >strictly
>prohibited...."

I like that a little better- but I don't have carfax
and you didn't say
that that was also in the fine print when you started
this whole deal.

regards-

Evan
