Question type: General

Why does your web site not allow any filtering of search of cars sold by
owner?
Are dealerships considered private owners then?
Luckily I live in a rural area, because now I only have to sort through 40
pages of cars, 95% of which would be eliminated by a simple filter.
Is tech not your thing?
O r are you just about making it difficult as possible for private sellers?

Near the bottom of the filters. Check dealer or private.

I can't find it anywhere! They either removed or make it very, very hard to find. I think their business model is to share profits with dealers and want to steer you that way.

Very good question. I'm in the 39474 area code. I ask for vehicles within 200 miles. I am shown vehicles over 1,000 away! This makes it much less fun to shop for a vehicle!
