Am I missing something here?
Call me naive, but I can't for the life of me, come up with a single scenario where my car or person could be compromised by revealing my VIN number. If this is not the case why would all auto makers place them clearly under glass where anyone can see?
When I first ordered my MS I placed my full VIN in my signature for tracking and comparative purpose through the order-to-delivery process . After looking around I discovered pretty quickly that this was not usual and customary so, like a lemming, First Class, I followed suit and began to use xxx for the last 3 digits. Conformity, conformity, conformity.
Can someone give me a plausible or logical reason why this is a usual and customary practice and why it matters?
Hello. My name is Steve and my VIN 248441 and I am a recent Tesla addict
