Exclamation Have you found craiglook and typed in your needs?
If you are like me.....I am continuously looking for 56 ford trucks and parts.
Tractors.....you name it.....LOL
If you are tired of typing every city what you want....just go to craiglook and type in your needs.

It will bring up all the ads on craigslist at that point in time and find what you want.
I almost went to Toledo,Ohio area to buy a truck for 150.00 but it was junk......and I would have never found it otherwise. Saved me a trip and don't need more junk and rust...LOL BUT it was on craiglook!!
I hope this will help some of you find that elusive part!! or truck!!!!
Bill

sure would be nice if you could organize the results in distance order..
(search all of Texas)

anyone know the search box syntax?

search multiple topics.. (craigslist reader can do that)

I also use Search Tempest: SearchTempest - The EASY way to search Craigslist

It will allow you to search by distance.

You're welcome. When you search for a vehicle, it will also ask if you want to include eBay results in the search along with CL.

Here's a tip for navigating through your search results:

In each of the sets of search results, click on the "expand" button (circled in red below), and that set of results will open in a new window.

COOL......I really don't need anything, but it gets to be a daily obsession to look and see what is out there.
Want to buy another big tractor.....but not really ......if I find one cheap and close to Florida.
See.......and I have to stop buying all these things.....haha

How about Jaxed-Site mash? I've used some of the other searches and over all this is my favorite.

site mash : : combined classified and auction listings
