Mods - having watched this thread for many years now, there is a common theme - new posters come on there, list their car for sale, and disappear forever, never answering questions or giving updates on the status of the car.
My first recommendation would be to set a minimum # of posts in order to list your car for sale. I would think 20 would be a good number.
Secondly (and less important of the two), would it possible to provide a listing template where sellers can cut/paste that template into a post, and fill in their info? So many sellers either totally omit pertinent information, or simply forget. Seems the template (with some instructions on how/what to include in the posting) could be a sticky.
Bonus recommendation I just thought of. Other sites I have been on that have similar selling forums have a way to mark your items as "Sold". The puts a "SOLD" sign on the post title where it is listed in the forum. This will help with 2 things - one when people dredge up a 3 month old listing (where the seller has already posted that the car is sold) and says, "Is it still available?". It also saves people a lot of time clicking on a thread and reading through it, only to see that near the end, the car is no longer available.
I appreciate having a place to view cars being sold by Tesla owners so I am surely not complaining. I just feel that it could be improved greatly.
