Finding stuff on Craigslist

[chevyman95]

Ok so I understand you may not want to give up any secrets or anything but how do you guys navigate craigslist? Do you search multiple cities? I always see people mention driving 2-4+ hours for parts. I only search local Atlanta listings but haven't found much that isn't rusted to death or priced too high. I don't really look at ebay because stuff seems to go for top dollar. Is there an easier way or do you just go from city to city on the site looking for things? Thanks
