Dealer ran carfax for me and I found the carfax data and the service folio data were spot on with each other, Carfax even had the details of a parking lot fender bender in '05 that required a respray of the rear bumper (that incident devalued the truck by $200. according to them).

EVERY time the registration was renewed in FL was reflected in the Carfax too.

While no subsitute for a through PPI, Carfax can be a useful tool in knowing detailed info on a vehicle.
