Default vin decoder

Is there such a thing as a free vin decoder any where on the internet? I've look every where, they say free but not true.

You can use the one HERE on the forum for free. I don't know if you'll get all the info you want out of it though.

I opened the link and entered my VIN. It all appeard correct with a lot of info, except that the Original Pricing MSRP was W-A-Y off. I have a copy of the original window sticker, and it was $7,200 lower.

I think it gives you the price for the car with standard options only. It listed mine as $300 higher than my window sticker. With the options my window sticker is nearly $10K more.

According to the dealer no, thats what was on my paper work. I'll check in the glove box, although its hard to read. Some kind of sealant covering it. Thank for your time. Ive been on here for 10 years and i have found answers to all my questions. Great group of people here .

No prob...from 2010 the VIN gives a little more info. If you can decipher the info on the glove box door I would be more than happy to help decode those.
