Has anyone found a replacement for ETIS that lists equipment build info for a given VIN?

As far as I know, there is no alternative. I would be interested as well.

Depending on age of the vehicle, say your 04' Truck. Any Ford dealer can actually print you up an "Original", meaning first copy of the Maroney window sticker if that is what you're after.

Generally the problem lies within finding a dealer and an agent within said dealer willing to participate their time to furnish said service.


Most people are too busy chasing the next deal or Dollar to take time out to do something so heinously frivolous. Amazing huh?

Point was missed and window stickers aren't why ETIS is(was) useful. Point being that ETIS was useful for scoping out equipment on vehicles for potential mods in the P&S without having to waste time paying a visit. Every. day. Seven. Days. A. Week. Ford dealer would be an even worse use of time. Amazing. :-/

I see what you're after now.

I guess depending on how fast new units come in, and you have resources to check when they drop for the most part i could see the advantage of what you're after.

Problem I come across is that there are certain cultures of individuals purposely at said P&S's that on a daily bases rape and pillage vehicles for profit higher than the P&S and in a 48hr time stamp of procrastination, already lead time to a a raped carcass..

Even here in Vegas, not much falls from the gods in the name of fruit. Truth be known, we're like the opposite of Hawaii in the sense Vegas is a desert oasis [granted a drunken one] where you can drive a couple hours in any direction and not see anything or even smaller towns of nothing. Its like a reverse island fever by association here.
