Best place to find private seller vehicles?

[Outlier]

I'm in the market for another vehicle and I'm not really interested in dealing with a dealership and their antiquated buying process so I'm looking for private sellers. I've kept an eye on Autotrader but what are some other good places to look? Every where seems to have been commandeered by all the dealers and I don't do Facebook.

What are you looking for? I’m sure there are several of us on here that could look on marketplace and pm you some findings.

I found the last couple of our vehicles on FB marketplace.

I don't do FB either but you have to find someone that does. That's where everything has gone. Sad but true. I have my son and wife search for things I want

A newer Tacoma would be my first choice. I've also been looking at half-ton trucks and 4Runners.

Year range? Price range? 4x4? 2WD?

I imagine so but that would be too imposing.

Craigslist is full of scammers and info farmers, but there are a few real ads.

Facebook has way more real ads . It's where I found the wife's 04 Honda .

I still like the AutoTrader kind of for the reason you stated, drill it down to low mileage individual cars, distance, etc.
Bought cars from out of state (a dealer) & had them shipped as well!

DUDE!!!! That is Awesome!!! I could have bought a car with what I spent on those weekly
Motorcycle, Truck, Car weekly...

This is what mine looked like, I would cruise through it, write down the pages I wanted to go back and look at... circle & "STAR" the real winners.
I bought them even when I didn't have $350 to spend...
