I do not have any idea WHY ebay lists a title issue...I have had a clear current standard ohio title thats not salvage/rebuilt or anything..I wonder if its the age of the vehicle or the fact that the diesel vans were uncommon.. I do have a clear title in my name and have had it since 2007..its never had a lein/loan against it..On Jul-15-10 at 05:03:51 PDT, seller added the following information: I FOUND the listed title issue...its the fact that the vehicle only shows 48,000 on the odometer and it is actually 148,000 (AS STATED in ad)..its the fact the odometer doesnt have 6 digits to show the "1"... listed in the report under http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270606433261#title-and-problem-check
