  4. Add Craigslist specific search terms

    Craigslist listings for Ford F-series trucks often do not include the hyphen in the title (i.e. "F250" instead of "F-250"). I suggest adding the non-hyphenated version to the search terms to show all listings available.

  6. AUTOMOTIVE Journalist and Linux Software enthusiast with Ideas

    Good afternoon,

    My name is Malcolm Dean. I would like to enquire about job opportunities and a couple of Ideas for Car Trek. First off I have a Linux software background with a background in auto sales and management. Is Autotempest.com looking for employees? Second I have published articles online and for magazines.

    Second

    Ed, Tyler, and Tavarish need a fourth series involving the "Best offroad SUV". It's an Idea that the trio hasn't explored and a seven -part series would be fantastic. A seven-part series with the "Best depriciated" SUV. Thank you for your time. Happy new year's,

    Hello,

    We’re not currently hiring at this time but could be in the near future, keep an eye out for job posting from us!

    We’ll pass along the suggestion for CarTrek to the team! Keep an eye out from them, heard there could be another season in the works :)

  7. Add a search text field with auto complete

    Add a elastic search field that will autocomplete make and model. This would make searching from a long list of makes and models a lot easier and also reduce the time taken by a user to get from the search page to their search results.

  8. Better Search options

    You need to add an option, Clean Title, Rebuilt Title, or Salvage Title, so people can find what they are looking for more easily. I'm looking for a clean titled vehicle, yet there are tons of rebuilt & salvage vehicles I have to weed through, very frustrating. Also add an option for 4,5,6,8,10,12 cylinders etc... Also add Corvette options 1LT,2LT or 3LT, Jaguar F-type options S,R etc. Email Alerts also for saved searches and newly listed vehicles.

    We now have search filters on AutoTempest.com for Title and Cylinders, both can be found on the Advance Search section on the homepage search form and on with all the filters on the results page search form.

    Searching for the models/trim mentioned using the options Nathan mentioned previously is still your best options for searching for those.

  9. Ability to exclude some sites

    I was enjoying the site until just today when I started getting flooded with results from "BringATrailer". They don't appear to match my search criteria (e.g., got a Lamborghini when searching for SUVs) and are NOT helpful.

    You already can turn off individual sources, using the Sources control at the top of the results page.

    The issue with Bring a trailer in particular is that they don’t support most of our filters (including bodystyle). We’re going to look at hiding their results by default when unsupported filters are entered.

  10. I would switch to AutoTempest from cars.com if you offered the ability to filter by interior color.

  11. Allow to filter searches by number of cylinders

    Filter search results by number of cylinders, or, even better, engine layout (e.g. I6, V6, H6, rotary, etc.)

    This feature is now live on AutoTempest.com. On the advanced search form on the homepage, or the search form on the results page there’s an option to select number of cylinders. It’s multi-select too so you can select multiple options instead of just one.

  12. Filter By Title

    A way you can sort or filter cars by there current title (e.g. Salvage, Lemon, Clean, etc)

  13. Canada Search option

    I would like to see an option to search only Canada or have a auto tempest.ca domain.

  14. Search by Type instead of Make/Model.

    I want a pickup truck. I don't care whether it's a Ford, Chevy, whatever. I also don't care whether it's a 1/2-ton, 3/4-ton, or 1-ton.

    You can now filter by Drive Type on AutoTempest.com, which includes 4WD, AWD and a few other options.

    Currently the best option for searching for blu-ray or DVD would be our keywords field where you can enter either or both of these options.

  16. Add Newer Blog Content

    Your blog posts are from one person and all show a date of July 30, 2015. Diversify your writers and get current content or link to current content like hot lease deals for the current month or 5 fun used sedans to get for under $7000, etc. I found your page via tv ad which means you've probably boosted your marketing budget, but don't blow the new lead generation by having old content. It makes the website seem dated even if the search functions are new.

    Our main focus will always be the search tool rather than the blog, but as it happens we just signed on a new blog writer and should have new posts coming out at least every couple of weeks starting in June! (And most of them will be directly related to our core focus of used car buying.) Hope you like it!

    We now have the ability to receive notifications for searches on AutoTempest.com. At the top of the results page there’s a form where you can enter your email address to receive email alerts for that search. We’re working on highlighting new listings for the searches you receive alerts for as well so you can easily locate any new listings for the search you’re receiving alerts for.

    completed  ·  Tony Lei responded

    Thanks for the suggestion Carolann! Because of how we search craigslist on SearchTempest, we can’t actually filter craigslist results by price, image, or many of the other filters that are supported directly on craigslist when in SearchTempest’s Combined Results mode. However, if you switch to SearchTempest’s Direct Results mode using the button above the results, you can filter by all the filters that craigslist supports. Direct Results is a little more complicated than Combined Results, but it gives you much more control over the results that you see. Hope that helps!
