large automotive groups
Hey guys! Curious why your site doesn't hit the 10 largest automotive groups like Penske, Lithia, CarMax, Sonic etc?

Type to search
Add the option to type in the vehicle make/model/year etc in addition to the current drop down menu for searching vehicles
1 voteThis is a great idea, and something we are definitely planning to do!

Millage
Why in the world would you allow listing of cars without the actual millage, millage is such an important critria, I would not waste my time to contact the seller, if millage not posted, and I would peter to use other websites where they mandate the millage such as Facebook Marketplace, Craig's list or Auto Trader than a site allows this.
1 voteWe do collect vehicle mileage from all our sources, and I believe it’s displayed for the vast majority of vehicles. We’re a search engine that searches listings on many different sites, so we don’t directly control what information sellers provide. Could you provide some examples of vehicles that don’t have mileage listed so we can look into them?

Combine multiple models to make searching easier
Ford: E350 Super Duty, E-350, and possibly Econoline 350 should be combined to one search selection as different sites call them different names but they are the same vehicle.
1 voteThanks for pointing that one out. We generally do try to put cases like that all under a single ‘parent’, so they can all be searched at once. We’re in the process of doing a review of our whole model lists, which will fix this model as well as others.
In the meantime, you can work around it by choosing Ford, Any Model. Then in the Trim field, enter this:
E350 | E-350

Turns out we’re already working on a title status filter! Should be ready soon.

Exclude makes and models from search
Allow the user to exclude specific makes and models from the search (for example, I am looking for an AWD hatchback newer than 2012, but I do not want a Subaru. The results are flooded with subarus.)
1 voteThis is something we’re considering. In the meantime, you could achieve something close using negative keywords. If you enter this in the keywords field, it will filter out any post containing the word Subaru:
-Subaru

Create CYCLE TEMPEST
A new search vehicle for motorcycles would be great!

Please add a Right Hand Drive (RHD) search option. RHD cars in the USA are cheap, great for export, but finding them takes an age!

1 voteHave you tried using the keywords field to search? I would think searching for either “right hand drive” or RHD would find them all. You can do that like this:
“right hand drive” | RHD

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.
https://itsfoss.com/toyota-motors-linux-journey/
SecondEd, 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,
…

Expansion
Hi, my name is Bruno, I'm from Brazil, and I've heard about autotempest at the Car Trek youtube show (btw, thanks for sponsoring that).
You have a very usefull service that I'm pretty sure would make a HUGE success around here. There's already lots of websites destinated to selling cars in Brazil and our market would really benefits from a multi platform search.1 vote -
add the make "Volvo V70R"
Volvo V70 is listed but I'm searching for the V70R model specfically, which was a limited production all wheel drive sports car.
1 voteSo, technically I think the model name is “V70 R” with a space? R is the trim level, and V70 the main model. However, it does appear some sellers do list it without the space too. Some also do weird things like write it as V70 2.5T R and such.
I’d suggest choosing V70 as the model, and explicitly searching both possibilities by entering this in the trim field:
R | V70R
We’ll look into whether we can improve the situation for these kinds of ambiguous trim/models on our end too.

Expand to the UK!
Your product would be so useful as there isn't a genuine decent alternative at the moment in the UK bar trawling through all the individual websites. Came across your platform through CarTrek and VinWiki and genuinely believe you would see great traction on the platform.

Small countryes choice
I think you can maybe make autotempest for more regions. Maybe someone can present the site in my country Serbia. And maybe a few guys to present them in other countryes. You sholud add it

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.
3 votesMake/model comboboxes are planned!

Add buttons to save vehicle to 'watch list', or to ignore vehicle in searches
It would be nice when searching lots of cars in multiple searches to ignore certain cars, and to be able to review a car, and then save it for future consideration (maybe with a 7 day limit to keep the list fresh). This would be better than grabbing URLs and stuffing in Keep.
1 voteThis is definitely something that’s on our radar; we have some other priorities that are higher, since bookmarks or something like Keep does work for this, but we agree that a feature like you describe here would be helpful!
