I have had to go the bonded title route before in Texas. Wasn't bad, but knowing a former owner can show up for 3 years to contest your ownership puts a lot of risk on you as the buyer. I wouldn't have an issue picking up an EX with no title as long as everything checked out....I wouldn't do it for more than 1k though.

Why do so many people try and sell vehicles without a title? Who buys these things? I went to look at a Lexus the other day and it was clean and nice and then when it came time to negotiate he didn't have the title so I went back home.

Little known fact that the lost titles go to the very same place those lost socks from the dryer go!

Leans against them is the scariest part of buying a no title mystery.... Nothing like finding out after the purchase that a bank or a BHPH dealership still owns it...or n Ex girl/boyfriend who comes back from a deployment to find their things missing. I don't often mess with no title vehicles.

Notice I said not often..lol. I once pulled a Thunderbird from an appt complex that was abandoned in Texas. I had the three certified letters to the owner and nothing else. I was able to get a title issued after running newspaper ads asking for the owner to claim it and then dealing with calls from bozos who didn't know anything about it but trying to claim it... Worth it maybe, but risky

I've been looking for 18" wheels for a while. I've got the v/b springs on so these may rub a little but I can change out tires if I need to. These don't look like the factory HD or Lariat wheels. Are they KR or aftermarket? f 250 rims & tires
