Try recycler.com , craigslist.com , and autotrader.com

If you need finacing try Carmax they have pretty good deals, and they will ship it if its in there invetory somewhere else.

What ship are you on?

I was on the CG-53 Mobile Bay

Welcome! I work in SD, live in Temecula.

Try San Diego Craigslist and Autotrader. Which Naval Base you on? I'm stationed at MCRD SD next to SD airport.

Im at TSC. I dont have a ship yet, still in school. The good ole Navy is out of money so im not getting orders until October. That means i will have been in for 19 months and not even stepped on a ship. Im at 32nd street. The only reason I dont like autotrader around here is because all the dealers try to punk us since im in the navy.

Pick up an autotrader magazines? There are no dealers and you just deal with private sellers.
