No, not like Bill Clinton
| Craigslist, Facebook marketplace. I wouldn't bother with the franchised dealers unless it is new-ish (4-5 yrs old) and miles under about 100k. They will only be interested in something they can retail

Also, they will need to show you their drivers license and an insurance card before any test drive.
I sell lots of stuff on CL and 99.9% of the scammers want to only communicate through texts.
Just remember, trust your judgement and if it sounds too good to be true, it is (not just probably).
Can you explain why to avoid texts?

| Surprised no one has mention the classifieds here? Someone may know someone in the market for the yet to be specified vehicle?

| Thanks for all the advice. I posted it on our employee electronic bulletin board and it sold 10 minutes after posting. Got full asking price to boot. |

| 2014 Toyota Venza Limited Touring. Nice car, was loaded, had every option available. Got $6,000 more selling out right versus trading it in at the dealership. |

| +1 for carmax. the offer may appear to be less than you think you could get from a street sale but they take care of EVERYTHING on the back end so if you like ease and convenience then that is the way to go. if you have a niche/special car you may do better to sell yourself.
