Free car classifieds sites - Craigslist, Oodle, etc.

We've talked about Craigslist which is the obvious place to start if you want to sell something (like a car). I just helped my neighbor post his Ford F250 (1996, low miles) on Seattle Craigslist last night. Then I got to thinking, aren't there other sites out there that allow you to post free car listings as well? Of course there are.

One of my new favorite free classifieds site is Oodle. Oodle is great because it sucks up listings from other sites and presents them in an easy to navigate page. Oodle used to suck up listings from Craigslist too, until Craigslist asked Oodle (maybe screamed at them...I'm not sure)to STOP. So now your Craigslist post no longer shows up on Oodle.

When I clicked on "Post an ad" on Oodle, I discovered that they refer you to some other sites to post your listing, then they'll suck it off the other site. I tried a site called ClassifiedSellers. You need to register (free) to post your ad but it was very quick and I had my neighbors truck posted within five minutes. I'll let you know how well it worked and how long it takes for the truck to show up on Oodle.
