Default Cool VIN search Site

Was getting an alligment today on my 03 Yukon and the tech ran my vin on a site called Compnine. It showed the production for my Truck and its options and broke each option down by rarity. Cool info. The site also has parts and assembly diagrams.

My 2005 Suburban is 1 of 3. Maybe I'll have to take it to Barrett-Jackson

Nine came up as 1 of 2. But it is a Quadrasteer, built for Canada with off road tires and bucket seats. Its the combination of rare options that brakes it down.I alo think some of the obscure codes are sales zone and plant codes.

What does your 05 have.
PS I think Mopar guys have been using this logic for years

It's just a black 2500 4X4, moderately optioned. You're probably right about the various codes causing them to be one of a kind.

Yeah, some like to TRY. There is limited factory info depending on the years. Most of it is limited to model-sub model break down with engines and trans, e.g. we know how many Super Bees were produced with 383s, 440-6, and Hemis. Of those we now how many are 4 speeds and how many were auto trans.

From 1970-up there are some percentage figures available for models for paint and options. However it is for the entire model, e.g. X% of ALL Coronets were painted a particular color. It does not tell you how many SUPER BEES were painted that color.

SOME people TRY to manipulate these percentages to work their car into a "limited production number" car, but it is all bullshit because the percentage numbers can not be broken down to a sub model.

You have a way with words Multi-mopar. Maybe you think is cool to throw around dirty words on whatever site you crawled here from. But there are many people that do not need to read that stuff here...BKH

MultiMopars:

The B^##$--t mathematical process you are referring to is called "extrapolation". It is not dead on accurate but it will get you very close to the actual number. Actually, about as close as you can get without all of the data or guessing. FYI, Ed

Seems odd that they do not list the Chevy Tahoe....Suburbans are there, but not Tahoes
