Default No CARFAX threads please.

This is just a reminder that we can't allow CARFAX threads anymore. CARFAX sent the sites a letter a while back that legal action may be taken if CARFAX threads were allowed.

It sucks but, please no carfax threads.

Thanks

For those who don't know (ME ME ME)... what's the deal with carfax, why are they so upset if there are links to their site and what legal actions can they possibly pursue?

I'm guessing they get upset because people can get unlimited carfax reports for a month and many of them get on car sites and do free ones for lots and lots of people, therefore costing carfax alot of money...
