How can they list it with a clean title, wouldn't they have to swap every vin on the vehicle to show as clean when you did a title search?

I say go try and buy it and take a cop! If the vehicle was totaled by an insurance company it would have a salvaged title. It is a fradulant offense in California to not disclose any accidents or sell a salvaged vehicle with a clean title.

I guess the license plate is the dead giveaway, the mileage, color, brush guard, tires...they're all the same...
