Good info. I always double-check the info before I sign the forms.

What do you mean by "It will be mine for another week or so" Who's going to take it from you? You must have other documentation with the correct VIN.

Just by reading the VIN does your truck match the VIN "description" By that I mean does it read to be a 1997 350? Plus, what does the letter C mean vs Ford vs the letter V? I'm not sure that makes any sense but I'm trying.

Long live DMV If Government ever needs an emema DMV is where they will insert the hose.

Ryan sold his truck but must be somebody caught the mistake and it needs to be corrected before the transaction is final.

Actually, in all technicality, even on your "certificate of title" you dont own your vehicle. If you pay taxes on something, you dont own it.

Because you have a "drivers licence" which actually is not known to law (as ruled in court) should be an "operators licence" you have signed away some rights by procureing this worthless piece of plastic.
Originally licences were needed if you were transporting a good or provideing a service, hmm... comercial licence. But now you only need those if it runs air brakes. Strange.

Anyways. Because you have this licence, the govt requires you to register your vehicle and pay taxes on it yearly to register it. WTF? its mine, why can't i just have a number? Why do I have to pay?
In order to FULLY own your vehicle, you need an MCO, which is the manfacturors certificate of origin. It states who owns the vehicle. Otherwise if you have a certificate of title, you co own your vehicle with the state.

Ever wonder why they take your MCO and never give it back? So they can push you around.

Okay, all this info sounds bogus, I understand, And you dont have to belive it. It's all true. There are court rulings and books on the subject. Read into it!
Micheal Badnariks book "Good to be king" talks about it briefly and he gives you lots of sources and info in the back of the book about it. He also talks about it in his constituion class, whcih you can download for free online!

Common rail injection. The ability to live tune your truck. Handheld tuners that can produce an additional 350hp at the push of a button. They ride like Cadillacs and the Duramax is where the performance diesel world is going. Am I leavin anything out? LMAO
