About a year ago I purchased a gotos AF E350 4x4 Sportsmobile.
It’s a 2003 with a ton (180,000) miles. Solid though, sick van, super stoked. Pop top, kitchen, solar, sleeps 4, etc.
The seller was super honest: it had a clean title from North Dakota (maybe South), but he was honest that at one point ~15 years ago it had been stolen and then recovered in California. The California title was Salvaged.. When he bought it, ___ Dakota reviewed it and said that as it had been recovered it was given a clean title.
After purchase, I took it to get it titled and registered in CO. The clerk did a search and it came back as previously “rebuilt from salvage” even though when I bought it, it had a clear title. So now, my CO Title says “Rebuilt from Salvage” as a “Title Brand”.
Am i completely fucked? I got a good deal on it (probably why) but it seems like the value of my monster-van just got halved.
Do i have any recourse? The seller was honest...and I bought a van with a clear title.
