Found my current car on Facebook marketplace.
Facebook Marketplace is the best currently if u want to buy from an individual.
If you are looking for a flipper or el cheapo .. letgo.com I have bought some cars off of there cheaper than junk prices.

Have y'all found really good sights to do used car searches?
What's wrong with CL? Now that they started charging everybody, it's cut down the ads from scammers and dreamers.

I'm having trouble finding any listings for what I am looking for.

I found my new to me Escape on Truecar. Cargurus is great though.
Autotempest
Carfax
Autotempest
Facebook market place is what every one and dealer use now.
Cargurus and Autotempest are what I have been using when researching.
Both of my recent purchases were found through Carguru, but was looking for a newer used vehicle.
I have bought off craiglist in the past, and it does seem it has gotten better with the $5 fee for listing.
I have heard a lot about facebook marketplace, but I don't have facebook, so no personal experience.

I used just about all of them until I found my van on cars.com if I remember correctly. I was able to get the van with less mileage than a small SUV for less money.
Cargraph if you are going nationwide for a very specific car
Now that cars.com owns almost all of the others it's the go to site, just gotta remember that you either
1. Wait
2. Overpay
3. Travel
If you want a fair price.
Local buying is almost dead unless you just buy whatever is cheap

Never heard of cargraph before so I checked it out. I didn't care for it because it doesn't allow you to filter your search criteria (i.e., searching for a specific color, transmission type, etc. The others may be owned by cars.com, but you'll still see listings on one that won't be on the other, so it pays to look at them all. Buying local is only good if you're not looking for something rare...if you want something rare, you're going to be traveling anyway...
