The rumble of the V8!

2020 Dodge Durango R/T 4dr SUV AWD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
It's an excellent SUV . I got the fully loaded R/T, with a hefty MSRP (don't let the MSRP fool you, as many say, it's a suggestion not the actual sales price).
For how old this platform is, it has aged well. There are pros and cons to owning an older architecture SUV in 2020;
Pros:
- It has a legit V8 engine. The sound and the performance makes you want to hit full throttle all the … time.
- No rattles, none whatsoever. I'm very sensitive when it comes to fantom noises.
- If driven calmly, it gets about 25 mpg on highway. No one drives this monster calmly.
- While the second row seats don't slide, all rows have adequate space by default.
- Standard Alpine sound system is way better than many other "brand name" sound systems I have owned on my previous cars.
- While it's an older architecture, it can still compete with the newer SUV's on technology too. It's an option, but adaptive cruise with stop and go, front crash prevention, lane keeping etc is available and works well.
- Can tow, can tow a lot.
-It's been around with this engine and transmission combo since 2014. Whatever defects there were, whatever that needed time to be figured out, is now figured out. I made a mistake of purchasing a first model year car before, man oh man, never again!
Cons:
- Thirsty. Yes me being a little heavy footed doesn't help either.
- Technology shows its age; while it does have optional front crash prevention, it can not detect pedestrians. Most newer model competitors can.
- You can't fold the second row seats if there's a child seat on.
- Brakes are a little on the mushy side. Too much travel (coming from a German car) before pads actually bite the rotors.
- It can be flat towed, tranny has a mode for that, but it doesn't have any connection to activate the brakes and brake lights.
Overall, I am very happy.
P.S. I did buy an 8 years 125k miles extended "max care" warranty. It's really affordable for the coverage it provides. Unlike many other brands, they let you buy it anytime before the factory warranty expires. You don't have to get it when you purchase the car!
Revisit to the brand

2019 Dodge Durango R/T 4dr SUV AWD (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
We are loyal Jeep owners and love them. However, since Jeep doesn't offer a bigger SUV than the Grand Cherokee (at the moment) we looked at every third row crossover on the market. After driving the Telluride, Atlas, Pilot, Traverse, Ascent, Pathfinder, and Highlander we were frustrated because non of those vehicles really made us fall in love enough to purchase them. We decided to … revisit the Durango and we were pleasantly surprised with the face lift of the 2019 models, the ride quality, and the towing capability. We were looking at the V6 GT but ended up with the R/T with the hemi. Captains chairs are the key feature that brought us back to the Durango. I am happy we didn't overlook this vehicle. It's beautiful.
It doesn't get any better than my Durango R/T.

2019 Dodge Durango R/T 4dr SUV (5.7L 8cyl 8A)
My 2nd Tahoe was about done after 184K miles. before that I had 2 Blazers, 2 Grand Cherokees, and a Land Rover. So I decided being 60 this would be my last car, I had good luck with the Jeeps and my son had a beautiful 2018 SRT Durango so I went back to Dodge, but I got a Journey and that was a mistake. It was a great little car, but having built hot rods and being a car guy, i was wrong … thinking I was ready to settle down and wanted to get something sporty, not an old mans car, so after 7 months and 5600 miles, I traded the Journey at the dealer ship my family has used for years, and where i had bought it and got a Durango R/T and am so very glad I did. it is the best and most enjoyable car to drive I have ever owned. Fun to drive, handles great, comfortable, fast, sporty, tons of room and just plain sexy. I am constantly getting comments from strangers and friends alike on it, more compliments than hot rods I had built. I cannot recommend it enough, if you want something fun to drive, go test drive one and you will be sold...

2020 Dodge Durango SXT 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
I dont know what vehicle they were test driving if they thought the V6 was under powered . I have a new 2020 and if you step on it , it runs like a scared rabbit . Plenty of power for this vehicle . V6 is quiet and works seamlessly with the ZF designed 8 speed auto which shifts almost undetectably under normal throttle shifts . Love the configurable dashboard where you can … choose an analog speedo or a digital speedo setup . Paint job is flawless . Front seats are very comfortable and have a lot of seat travel for any tall drivers which i love. Backlit door cupholders , center cup holders and a lit glovebox . Excellent sounding base radio with 6 Alpine speakers . Have tow package which gives you a full size spare . The only negative I dislike so far is I dont like having to go into the infotainment to set the climate control . There is a blower knob external for blower speed but I guess you have to have it there if you want to have auto climate . You can switch it auto or manual . So far love this vehicle . Hope the long term reliability is there . Crossing fingers . I will probably get a max car warranty just because there are so many expensive things to go wrong now and I plan on running this into the ground and hope to get 200000 miles out of it . Highly recommend.
