For the couple guys that said verify the VIN, how exactly do you know your "verification" is effective? Is there a national database of stolen vehicle VIN's that any cop can check? Or is it state by state? if state by state, you would have to verify with all 50 to know for sure?
The best way is just to look at the last 7 digits of the VIN number on your cab, and make sure that they are the same 7 digits on the frame right under the power steering box/above the drivers side wheel. Then you're a-okay. But its not a big deal if they don't anyway because the chances I believe are very slim to none that it would be stolen. You can also take it to your local Highway Patrol and they should have a VIN inspector that will take a look and can let you know.
