Default New Kid on Block

Just joined this morning. Have been a Dodge Rammer since 2000. I have a 2001 Dodge Ram Sport Extended Cab(RED)4x4. It now has 188k miles. It has been a good truck and suffered only light duty. Of course it has its typical list of failures. Dashboard, heated seats, radio speakers and worn out leather seats. I am still very happy with the truck as the only major repairs I have had to deal with are a new radiator an rebuilt the rear end. The reason I found this site is because I am looking at a 2013 Lar. Longhorn from Carmax with only 15k miles on it. I am trying to decode the last 6 numbers of the VIN. Regardless I am hanging on to "Ole Red".

Last six of the VIN are just a sequence number, they have no other meaning.

Isn't there a VIN breakdown in the front of the FSM?
