    Is there a site I can check the VIN to determine what year it is?

    The door sticker says June of 2014 but the dealer swears it is a 2015 model. Not quite sure how that is possible.

    2015 model years would have been manufactured in 2014 and hit the showroom floor by June of 2014. Think about how long the carmakers have been advertising 2021 cars. Since May or June of 2020. I drive a 2019 T680 that was manufactured in June of 2018. Perfectly normal. Don't worry about it. Good luck!

    Same with cars and pickup trucks. Many 2021 year models have already been manufactured, this year in 2020.

    Just google the vin. It will show what has been done. I did it on a freightliner. It was very indepth, even listed the wreck it had been in. Yeah I passed on the purchase when I saw it had been wrecked.

    Most CMVs I have seen have an assembly complete date in the driver's door jam! Just look for this!
