Probably not. Did it come with any warranties or did you buy it “as is”?

Anything is possible. You need to do a little research and ask the right questions. And have the truck inspected by a competent mechanic. Read more

The GAP is to make sure the loan is paid off. It does not put money in your pocket. Read more

I can’t imagine I was the first to think of this but I didn’t see it in my quick scroll through the comments.

Depends wildly by state. In many states, the OWNER is liable for the car but the co-signer is not necessarily an owner. If she keeps it insured, you should be OK. As for the rest - again, depends on the state.

There might not be much anyone can do. That is the danger of co-signing in the first place. If she is curremt you can be glad about that at least.

I hear about this from time to time in states with traffic cameras. I don’t have to deal with that in Michigan. Sounds like you have a great argument but you probably need to consult a local attorney.

I assume you mean that they have petitioned the court for the title to be transferred to them? You need to object to that and fight it, if you think it is worth it.

Sounds like it to me. Many business owners will say things like that (See you in Court! We’ll sue you!) but it’s nonsense. They know the average person will get scared off and not sue. Read more

I had forgotten about this whole exchange until someone pointed it out to me today. This woman is such a worthless nut-job, it is amazing. She did not read my piece carefully and then when I pointed out what she had done wrong, she doubled-down and started name-calling. Read more

Why do you think I’m not a lawyer? You don’t believe the bio at the bottom? Read more

Depends on the state laws. Many go off the # of miles at the 1st complaint. But many people with the VWs never complained. So you would need to pick an arbitrary number. And that is where it gets good/bad.

Well, that could be ambiguous as written. (Does it cover med and heavy duty AND vehicles, or does the med/heavy refer to the type of vehicles?). Read more

I’m 50 pages in and all I see are regs for big rigs and tractor-trailers. I won’t mind a spoiler: Can you tell me where it addresses vehicles that normal people might actually race?
