2014 Dodge Durango Limited 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

I was always a Chevy man, but found Acadia's and Traverses to be uninspiring. I gave the dodge a test drive and instantly was impressed with the vehicle. I have the V-6, it has a distinctive exciting rumble when I push the Ignition button. The pep and the fuel economy of the V6 mated with the 8 speed is great. The bold front grill makes a huge statement and reminds me of body on frame SUV's of the past. The interior is clean and sleek, but has a balance of both aggressiveness in the displays and class/refinement in the controls. My only advice to new buyers is get the V-8 if you plan on using the vehicle for towing. The V6 is rated at 3500 lbs unless you have the HD cooling package and load leveling suspension. (you can add these things easily, but the manual technically does say all vehicles without the factory tow package are limited to 3500lbs towing.) The V-8's come ready to tow and only require a hitch and harness.

2014 Dodge Durango R/T 4dr SUV AWD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)

First off, like all the other reviews, I was surprised how good this vehicle is. We are a family of 5 and use it for daily driving, winter trips to the Sierras, and towing a 5000 lb boat up to a mountain lake. Dropping around 400 lbs of tongue weight on the hitch, it sags only 1.5 inches at the center of the rear wheel arch. The V-8 has plenty of torque and the 8 speed transmission is just amazing. Elegant power-on downshifts without the usual jerking at the hitch. Utterly planted and stable while cruising, as good as my previous Denali XL. No bouncing and swaying typical of an overstressed tow vehicle. Backup camera is awesome for hitching and it even has a transmission temp gauge. Update after 2 1/2 years of ownership: Still really like this thing. Still tight and rattle-free. Upholstery and paint are holding up nicely. Great in the snow. No Major warranty issues. But... Just got a $900 bill for the brakes. Driving down the steep side of the Grapevine, the vehicle has been recurrently juddering (and I mean bad!) under braking. This is a brake rotor thing and while I understand that they wear, I don't expect to throw the rotors away at 25K miles. Never happened with 100K miles on my Denali. This simply comes down to intentionally cheap design. C'mon Fiat, this is a big SUV. Spend another 30 bucks and give it decent brakes.

My Husband and I upgraded to the 2014 Durango R/T in November 2014. There is about 4500 miles on it so far, and we couldn't be happier with it. We were previously in a 2013 Toyota Venza, and were in the market for a 3rd rower with our 2nd child on the way. The Durango's space is definitely an increase from the Venza, and a great help when you have a 3 year old picky with leg room. This SUV gives you more bang for your buck. I was usually the first to criticize Dodge, but this SUV changed me and my Husband during the test drive. No issues with the vehicle so far.

Look for the used before yo go new. I have a family member that works for dodge and he said there is no change from the 2016 to 2017. Also minimal changes from 2014-2017. We have a 2014. Rides extremely nice, all the features take some time to get used to. It is a bit high to enter for my 3rd grader but she manages. Very ROOMY for my family (wife/daughter/self) And 2 80+lb German Shepherds. Very good with acceleration, handles like a sedan when you need it to get around obstacles. Love the xm radio and navigation features. Overall this is a SOLID vehicle that exceeded my expectation. If you have a friend, family member or Co-worker that owns why. Pick their brains and see if you can do a test drive. I was able to test drive 2012 RT, 2013-14 CITADELS, 2015 LIMITED. I was looking at the 2016 Mazda CX9, 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder, 2016 Honda Pilot as my other choices.

Owned this 2014 Durango for two years and for the most part I'm pretty pleased with it. I like the automatic downshifting of transmission on hill descension. Yet, I've accidentally hit the shifting paddles and downshifted on freeway causing the RPM's to nearly blow engine. It has a lot of power for a V6 which is one reason I chose it above any others. I love the engine space to work on it if ever needed. The interior space is decent for a car in this class. There have been a couple of small repairs. The driver window had a crack inside the tinting and the entire window needed replacing. A trim grommet came out, but was easy to replace. I'm a little worried about the sunroof rubber seal beginning to pull away. It's not significant enough yet to cause a leak, but I'm watching to see what it does over time. I'm curious as to how long it will take me to replace the battery located under the passenger seat when the time comes. I do wish that Dodge would make the dash and interior pieces a lighter color...perhaps a gray or beige to keep the heat out of the vehicle. One regret, with low gas prices I want a V8. When I test drove the Hemi I noticed that it was extremely powerful and had a lot of low end torque. It was only a $4k more than the V6 which takes a bit to get moving. Also, it is a little difficult to see out of compared to my older pilot, tahoe, grand cherokee, and sequoia. I think that generally cars have less visibility with lower profile designs that the government mandated for mpg.
