It's a non issue if you take your car in for service, but if you're the type to wrench on your own vehicles, it's something to bear in mind. So husband spent some time in his metal shop to fab an adapter for a second scissor jack, so he could rotate tires and change the oil. A second jack from the dealer is almost $300. and no mounts for floor jacks or jack stands. One thing my husband's not fond of is the fact that there is only one special jack included. We even run it with the Eco Boost turned off, and often in Sport mode. Haha! That's one advantage over the V8 models, which guzzle gas as bad as our big RAM trucks. We've been very impressed with the fuel economy, it does well - even with my husband rallying up and down the mountain and dusting people left & right on his daily commute. Do yourself a favor and splurge on some good all-season tires like Michelin LTX for optimum performance in any road conditions. You can tell the Durango is modeled on the Challenger chassis so it's basically a race car of an SUV, even in the V6 model. It still hauls and handles like a dream, and we live on a ranch in the Rockies so good handling on mountain roads in all manner of nasty weather conditions is an absolute MUST for us. which is impressive for a vehicle of this size. That being said, we're still pleased with the performance.
what do you honestly expect, people?! It's a 3-row SUV, a V6 simply can't put out the HP to move it like the Hellcat would (ohh, that one must be sweet!!). I've seen other reviews complaining about the power of the SXT. We both love our RAM trucks (mine is the 2500 horse hauler), so Dodge was a natural choice for us, but we opted for the V6 model for better gas mileage than our Hemis. we needed something that could haul our 5 kids and also double as a commuter car with good cargo space for my husband, who travels to construction job sites all over the place. I researched a lot of 7-seater SUVs before deciding on a 1 year old Durango. This car will stay with me a VERY LONG TIME. Love the options with the dashboard instruments too. Plenty of cup-holders, pockets on doors, etc.Ĭar has a wonderful and SOLID feel. Didn’t think I’d EVER get used to that! But I did and it is so much less of a pain because it is so flat and doesn’t stick up in your way. Mine has the “turn-knob” shifter that was a downer at first. Dealer said I made the right choice not ordering that. USB ports and electrical plugs everywhere! Sport Mode, Paddle shifters, tons of goodies. Plenty of cargo room convertible to (2) more seats if necessary for short trips or smaller people. DEALERSHIP that did work told me NEVER sell this car! Someone that has a business bought an entire fleet and have had engines replaced after 500,000 miles! Free!Ĭaptains seats and console in second row, sunroof, towing package, BEATS stereo kicks a$$ !!! Air conditioners for front and rear. YEP! They replaced it and it cost me ZERO.
GOBAN CARS PLUS
In 2017 dealers offered LIFETIME warranty for entire drivetrain plus some. THAT is true! Approaching 30k miles and so far only in last month one problem. Incredible pep and still I have life-of-car mpg of almost 19mpg! Infotainment system rated as the most intuitive on the market.
R/T Blacktop Edition, had wheels chrome anodized as part of deal.
