Sorry about your loss...

glad to see you found the information, though.

Need anything else for the truck, we'll be here.

VIN Number

Thanks, got the VIN figured out, all except the 9th position...
8 is engone type and 10 is Model Year, what's 9? Also, check out my post about price. I know she'll make me a deal, but this is a plain jane, no power, V-6, 2WD, Long Bed. I know it's not worth a bunch!
Please anyone that can give me some prices. I'm hoping 3 or 4,0000.

Short answer: Just ignore it. It does not convey ANY data about the vehicle. It's just a data integrity verification code.

Long answer: Google "check digit" (include the quotation marks). If you want to learn HOW to create this digit, see http://www.answers.com/topic/vehicle...ication-number
