Ratings and reviews

I really like the app, but I have a few suggestions that would make it five stars. In addition to a search radius, I need to be able to mark locations as too far (because there's no direct route) or too expensive (into a state with higher taxes). Instead of selecting every brand except one, I want to say which brand to exclude. This way the other brands are included when new cars are listed. Tell dealerships that you will blacklist them if they don't remove sold cars within 24 hours.

Well, the app itself works fine. Listings are horrible. For example, if l search for manual trans car, more than a half of cars listed WILL say it is manual, but then you look at the pics and clearly see it's an automatic. Or if l search for a diesel, a lot of regular gas cars will list as diesel where you can clearly see they're not. I know, it's a seller's fault, but the app should not let anybody list whatever they want.

The app used to be 5 stars but after the latest updates I have to give it a 3. There are two issues that I wanted to discuss. The first one being that when you search for a car and filter the results it automatically sets the search radius to 30 miles even when I selected no limit. My second issue is that you can no longer search with advanced settings. If you want to filter the search to only see 8 cylinder engines you must search the car THEN go up to the top to go to advance settings.
