Best Website to Sell/List a Vehicle?

I am selling a 2006 model truck with very low mileage in the next few weeks. I'm not trading it in because my wife and I are moving to a city with great public transit, and we will be a one-vehicle household for a while.
Carmax offered me about $5k below what I believe is fair market value. Does anyone have experience listing a vehicle online (Craigslist, Facebook, others?), and how was your experience? Any tips?
ETA: I'm willing to accept a low ball offer for convenience, but $5k below FMV is about a 50% discount.

I’ve heard good things about givemethevin.com but have never used them personally

Autotrader may be an option.

What is make/model & price?
I used cargurus before, was fine. But FB marketplace is best imo

When I sold my truck (2013 F-150), I got cash offers from Carvana, Carmax, and Vroom. You can get an 'instant cash offer' from KBB.com, but that one sends notifications to local dealerships, so you'll get phone calls from salesmen that want to appraise your truck. I took my truck to 3 dealerships in 1 afternoon and accepted the highest offer from the 3rd dealership. I signed the title and they cut me a check.
That's the kind of truck people love to buy for their teenager- do you/your wife have social media you can post it on and maybe sell it to a friend of a friend?

I've sold 10+ vehicles on marketplace. You will get top dollar but you have to deal with some riff raff.
