It's me also, you are not crazy. Pretty disappointing nationwide search gone, i noticed this about 2 weeks ago when the website would not load and made you input your zip code and then only compared 2 or 3 local dealers inventories. Maybe they don't want price comparison but I actually used it regularly to locate the next vehicle I wanted.

It's been gone for a couple of weeks. You can search dealers by state if you put your zip code up in the top search field. That opens up a drop down on the left side of the page. Click on "Browse All" to get the states and go from there. Still requires you to search each dealer's inventory. In their defense, it takes a lot of IT horsepower to search the entire dealer network for a particular model.

I spoke with a dealer about this when we were in picking up our CPO. They said they had received several complaints and MBUSA was going through an upgrade. My suggestion would be to use Autotrader and you can filter out CPO vehicles if you want.

Listingallcars.com and ebay capture a lot of CPO's. Best to go to the dealer's website after finding one on these sites.

I noticed it too. I found my CPO 2014 GL through the MBUSA website. The car was at a dealership 300+ miles away from me. I never would have found it using the new search. Bring back the previous search method!!
