Buying a used car with unresolvable mileage discrepancy?

I am trying to purchase a used vehicle that has a 30,000 mile discrepancy in the odometer. How should this effect the value of the car? The vehicle is a 2003 Chevy Suburban w/ leather reads 73,000 miles but carfax says 105,000.Buying a used car with unresolvable mileage discrepancy?
pass on this scam of a car
It means the car is TMU, True Miles Unknown.



Assume the car has 200,000 miles because you cant prove either figure is correct.



It must be sold forever with the TMU box checked on the title, unless its over so many years old in which case its "exempt" from reporting requirements. In my state, its 9-10 years.Buying a used car with unresolvable mileage discrepancy?
Being a 2003 GM truck, it probably had one of those crapped out odometers when it went in for service--nice big "recall" for 03-07 models.



I would not worry about it as the odometer has been replaced and works now, but that is what you get with a GM product.
this scammed out stove is a put together and i predict more problems/havent seen it fail yet/what did they say about the roll back/once you get into it the stuff starts to breakBuying a used car with unresolvable mileage discrepancy?
Base it's value on the 105,000 miles and then knock another $200 or so off.
