Why eBay Motors is losing traction

It appears that far fewer people are clicking tires these days for everyday vehicles on eBay Motors.

The popular Web site is in transition. I know from buying and selling cars and classic car parts on eBay Motors what's changing: Listings for everyday vehicles offered by private sellers are fading away.

And most of the everyday cars such as Toyota Camrys, Ford Fusions and Chevrolet Malibus listed by dealers are sitting on their virtual lots unwanted, and worse, unviewed.

Unless a car is a classic or upcoming collectible, it gets fewer eyeballs on eBay Motors than it once did.
