I've been hunting for a 220D for the last few months and thought I would share how I finally grabbed one.

As you know, Craigslist is designed for local searches only so it can get pretty tedious trying to search multiple cities for multiple keywords.

My solution was to use searchtempest.com to search every city in the USA for the term "220D".

The Search Tempest site is rather difficult to navigate and it's hard to know which cars you have already viewed so I recommend using the RSS feed function.

After you have typed in your keyword and search parameters you will be taken to the results page. On the top right of that page you will see "Feeds For This Search".

Once you download the OPML for your particular search, you can then import that file into your RSS reader of choice. I'm using NetNewsWire for the Mac.

Once you're set up you'll be monitoring every 220D (or whatever you happen to be hunting for) for sale all over the country.

Even if you're not ready to buy it can be pretty fun to see what's out there.

Good luck.
