Default Car Fax Question

Question about car fax. Does Car Fax tell you how long the current owner has had the car? Example: I see a car at a dealer. Does car Fax tell me when the car changed ownership to the dealer?

Thanks...

An alternative to carfax is to use ebay motors' link to the Experian databases. This is only $7.99 for one report. Here is a sample:

To check a car use this link prefix:

http://www.autocheck.com/?siteID=204&vin=

then add the VIN of the car to be checked at the end of the link.

Yes it does show change of ownership, and a few more things. If you go online to cars.com or other selling sites, some offer a free car fax you can view to get a better idea what they show.
