 It is NOT a vin plate, which is why the dmv does NOT recognize it as a form of identifying a truck. The only reason they are “faked” with added options is because people on message boards make a big deal about them.

 We were making SPIDs before there was an internet. The SPID is of no concern to the DMV, but it (original one) certainly is proof of what that vehicle is/was from factory...if the info matches the VIN-plate that you admit is important. It has the same VIN as the VIN-plate, the model#, and Wheelbase. It's a silly way to verify a longbed was shortened, options added or gone, Stepside or Fleetside, and even if it was a special order.
