This SUV rocks. Handles great, comfortable, I have had issues with visibility driving other cars and SUV's but in this you have perfect view day or night. I purchased the black metallic R/T and it is worth every penny. I also purchased the lifetime warranty. Go ahead and test drive one.

This is the third Durango we've owned. Our first was an '01 SLT that has 120,000 and even after being rolled, is still a "no problem" daily driver. The second was a '16 R/T that was an extremely impressive grocery getter and tow vehicle. And then we saw a You Tube video with the new '18 SRT and had to have 1. We got ours Oct. 30. '17 and was 1 of the first 5 in the Northwest. Wow, what a Beast!!! Having all the bells and whistles you could want in an SUV, it can't be beat! And the sound of the pipes when you stand on it it sounds like old school headers and straight pipes! But after 2 months it was in the shop because every time we parked it the brakes locked up when they accumulated moisture from snow, slush or rain. Even in our garage, which is about 50 in the winter, it still happens and Dodge doesn't know why. They locked so hard one time that it broke the steering gear just trying to move it and had to have the steering box replaced. Since we've owned it has been in the shop every other month with front-end issues, like clunking noises putting in drive or turning left and vibrations around 55 to 60 mph It has 21,000 miles and it ALREADY needs 4 new tires, front brakes and rotors!!! That's gonna run me over $2,000 that's not covered with warranty. If we were hot-rodding it or towing trailers DAILY I'd accept that but we don't! We bought this so we had a ride that has plenty of power to run down the highway pulling our 4-place sled trailer or our 4-wheelers and be comfortable doing it! The cool factor of the 392 SRT was just a bonus over our R/T, but with all the front end and brake issues we've had I'm kinda paranoid to drive it at highway speeds, pulling anything or not. I can't speak for all the '18 392 SRT owners, but I'm starting to get little embarrassed about all the shop time it's seen. I will say this, it's a real head turner and 1 helluva beast, with towing and power comparable my Ford 7.3 Powerstroke, but a lot more comfortable with better acceleration! Other than that, I think we should have kept our R/T which was, all around, just as good.

Great In Almost Every Catagory

Durango SRT Towing, 08/01/2020

The Durango SRT performed great in every category in its class with the exception of towing. To maintain 65 MPH while towing a 3500 lb trailer (half of its 7000 lb tow capacity rating) required the engine to spin at 3,900 RPM causing a "engine oil change required" warning message on its dashboard display, even though the engine oil and oil filter had just been changed. I'm guessing this was due to dangerously high oil temperature. BTW, the "SRT MODE" was set to "Tow", the road was level, the trailer (20 ft travel trailer) was not overloaded, and the outside temperature was about 75 degrees.
