IMO the car fax just tells you how good the last person covered up what happened to his/her car/truck.
My friend has a Jaguar and he slide it of the road and did a bunch of front end damage.... no cops showed up he had the work done and never reported it, so it wont show on a car fax report.
just check it for overspray and body panel bolts with paint missing(from a socket or wrench)
sorry I'm not much help just giving my .02
good luck with your new truck purchase.

Dealers sometimes opt to take ownership of a vehicle and are required to in the following states: Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and South Dakota. Please consider this as you review a vehicle's estimated ownership history.

They might catch what happened two owners ago, if ever. It only updates after to make your purchase and register the vehicle in your name. By then of course it's too late to find out your car was actually totalled. That's what happened to me on my wife's (previous) vehicle.
