      it searches what autotrader, eBay, Craigslist, and cars.com

      all those are either empty or have relatively nice car

      I want that 3k dollar civic with a mild oil leak

        The problem is what you’re looking for is far less common than it used to be.

        The bottom has dropped out of the market. Cars under a certain value are usually scrapped and/or parted out. You will find them occasionally but it’s getting rare. In my local area I find that Craigslist has the best selection of beaters, but it’s still difficult to find anything worthwhile under $4000.

        Might be time to consider a motorcycle, scooter, or e-bike of you can make it work

        Edit: one more thing. There are ways to browse FB marketplace without an account.
