how do I space out text in ad?
Hi - There is no paragraph spacing in my listing. It's all one giant paragraph.
How do I space out the text and make it more readable? Some bold headlines
would help as well.

I'm afraid we do not currently offer any formatting tools for the listing description. However, our engineers are always looking for ways to improve the site, and this is definitely something they can look at for our next update.
CarGurus, it's embarrassing that someone who's trying to sell a car, maybe a $5,000 car, maybe a $50,000 car, CAN'T properly format their listing. It's amateurish and it wouldn't take but a few lines of code on your webmaster's part to rectify this glaring fault.

@lalva_cg or anybody at car gurus: this is a very simple one line fix. Just add this to your css file: .prominent-description-text { white-space: break-spaces; } This will preserve the white space created in your editor. Or consider a new text editor like trix.
I agree with the above. Does anyone at CarGurus care enough to make the simple change, or do you have to be a dealer to get the webmaster's attention?

We'd all sell faster with this one simple change. I wrote out pretty nice copy for my ad all for naught.
I don't understand why the dealers get paragraph spacing and a private seller doesn't. You can clearly see it in their listings...
Same complaint here. As of Nov 2022, I still can't add line breaks into a CarGurus ad. This makes my post extremely disorganized and makes my car harder to sell on this platform.

Um ... Text formatting. What they said ↑ ↑ ↑ It's almost 2024.
Just add this to your css file: .prominent-description-text { white-space: break-spaces; } This will preserve the white space created in your editor.
