Can you be more specific on what type of information you are looking for?

Usually if you just type a VIN number into Google, you will be presented with the available choices of web sites offering to "decode" the vin.  Of course, most of them want money to do it.

However, you may not learn much from any of those sites.  If you are looking for names of previous owners or maintenance and repair history, I think you will be disappointed.  That stuff doesn't get tracked very well for motorhomes.

Maybe my problem but that link info is not very straight forward and does not make reading the VIN very easy. Who ever put that together needs to redo it so anyone can understand what they are reading from each "position"
IMHO
