OK, Eric, thanks, I'll remember "computerized". BTW, I put in my VIN at
CarFax and it said there were *two* transactions, so I'm thinking, "Aha!",
but, to check, I put in the VIN for another car of mine I bought new and it
showed two transactions, also. So, it looks OK as to the car having been
sold before. I'll be asking the service mgr. what could explain the three
tires mounted wrong, though.
