We just switched over to the new Durango from a small convertible. I expected a lot of difficulty getting used to the much larger SUV, but instead I've found it handles like a smaller car and just happens to have all the leg/head room my 6"7' husband needs to ride comfortably. The acceleration is incredible. I never would've thought such a large vehicle could move so well. We got a base model with only a couple minor upgrades, but I still feel like I'm riding in class. The 6 CD changer is a great standard feature. The best part was the $8000 in rebates that made the price easier on the checkbook. When the lease is up I will definitely upgrade to the next model. I'm hooked!

We just got our Durango in May but have already taken it on a vacation and it was great. We had a van before but this is much roomier and drives great. You feel like you're on your living room sofa.

I love this truck

I love my new Durango. it handles well. I owned a 1998 Durango and it drove like a truck, very rough. My new Durango drive smoother than my husband's car. I have four children and two dogs and make trips to MA and DE and I feel we're very safe in this new Durango. If I could change one thing the SUV does have a lot of blind spots, not just at the side mirrors.

The best SUV ever

This is the best vehicle i've ever owned. The only problem is the fuel tank needed to be replaced and they said this is starting to be a common thing with the new model so if you have one or are getting one get it checked out. Also, when you lay the back seat down it does not go flush with the floor. Other than that it drives great and has so much room you could get lost. Its very easy to drive for being so big and the gas is very good for such a big vehicle, especially for a 4wd. I've always been a ford girl but I think my taste has changed. This SUV is amazing and it will be hard to ever get me into anything else.

I have enjoyed this Durango on our trips and it feels like you are driving on air. This is very smooth riding with great get up and go power in the engine. I have been buying Dodges for many years, and this by far has been the best.
