Best way to search dealer stock of used vehicles?

I'm looking to purchase a used Chevy Suburban or Colorado and have fairly specific requirements. Also, I have to purchase the vehicle through a dealer (but want to ensure it's a reputable dealership, and not a used car dealer). I've looked on Craigslist and Autotrader, but can only seem to find private sales and used car dealers. I also saw the certified pre-owned section on the Chevy website, but didn't find much, and the nearest vehicle it matched me to was in Ontario!

Does anyone have any advice for the best way to search used stick at local dealerships? Do I just need to search each dealerships individual website, or is there a more efficient method?

Thanks!

Open Road and Dilawri have their used inventory on their respective websites for all their dealerships, that should cover a good chunk of them. Just keep in mind that Dilawri is Canada wide so filter to BC if you're looking for just local. Thinking about it, i'm not sure if either have a Chevy dealer but there might be another dealer group that is more in the american market.
