Can I Get the Age of my RV from the VIN Number

By Luise Volta on April 22, 2009 in RV Advice

Question: Dear Luise: I currently own a smaller, Jayco Travel Trailer that I’m trying to figure out what year it is. I have a VIN#. Would you have any idea how I can find out the year? Thanks! P.

Answer: Dear P.: As I understand it you can get that kind of data on cars with a VIN number at: http://www.carfax.com/

It would be worth a try to see if they have VIN information on trailers, as well. Blessings, Luise

Luise is married to the love of her life, Val, born in 1911. Their little terrier, “Rosa,” makes most of the major decisions at their house, (or thinks she does).
