their cars to people in their community.
There are more listings than just the classifieds included with your local paper or on their website.
The benefit of this site is that often the listings of cars for sale by owner are more detailed and you can often see pictures.
My dad found his truck this way, but he did have to drive a few hours to get it. Because he got a great deal it was worth it though, and he has had very little trouble with his vehicle.

Be aware there is one draw back of buying cars for sale by owner.
Many times, they do not come with a warranty, and you don’t know the history of the car or how well the engine is running.
There may be hidden rust you cannot see, or perhaps someone may find that the transmission is about to give out. If you still want to by the car, you have a bargaining chip to get a lower price if you find something is wrong.
This is why you should always get a report on the history of the car, and always have a mechanic look it over for you before you buy.
Cars for sale by owner are only a good deal if you know what you are getting.
