Our Journey has been a pleasant suprise!!! After reading the expert reviews and then reading the reviews that people who actually own them, the opinions are so different!!! I have no problem with the acceleration, even when fully loaded. There is plenty of room in the first 2 rows for adults. The 3rd row suitable for kids. The ride is awesome!!! The cabin is quiet and the steering makes it feel like a much smaller suv. Absolutely love this suv!!! Forget the experts!!!

My wife has collapsed disks in her back. At the young age of 32 she suffers the back pain of people 20yrs her senior, and so driving a car was really hurting her The seats are just too close to the floor. On Valentine's day 2019, we traded our 2011 Camry XLE for a new 2018 Dodge Journey. Our Camry's work-of-art V6 was a rocket compared to the 2.4 world engine in the Journey. However we have had several Kia and Hyundai vehicles powered by various vintages of that engine and knew what to expect from it. A 0-60 time of 9.5 seconds may be "slow" by 2019 standards, but it's plenty quick enough for the rural area of Ohio we live in. Our Journey is a left-over 2018. It is a base SE, with the backup camera (standard in 2018+), the blacktop package, and the Bluetooth/Satellite and Leather Steering wheel package. It's window sticker was $25.5k, and with all of the rebates we received from FCA, and Ganley motors in London, OH; the car's price was just $18,500! We have had the car for only a month, but first impressions are good. Interior quality is descent and except for accelerating, the engine noise is well subdued. The 4-speed is ancient, but the torque converter is pretty high stall, and allows the engine to review fairly freely to make the most of it's modest output. All in all its performance is not much different than the 2011 Kia Sorento 2.4 we used to have as well, and that SUV had a six speed auto. The car is black, and with the tinted windows, and blacktop package, admittedly it looks much more expensive than it is, but best of all the seating angle is higher than our old Camry, and my wife hurts much less as she drives all over the state for her job, and that is most important to me anyway. Everything else is just an added win! Fuel economy could be better, but 22-23mpg combined isn't awful either.

Plenty of front seat headroom and legroom for larger drivers. Third row seating is great if you have to drive a bunch of kids around. There are two built-in coolers under the back seat floor mat, each of which can hold a 12 pack, for long trips. Power and handling are not great, but adequate for getting from point A to point B. I have been getting about 28 mpg on the highway with the 2.4L 4-cylinder engine. No problems so far.

Dodge is turning a quick buck on this baby! I have the basic model and they went too far; moreover, it was like the stripped it when they built it in Mexico. #1 on the motor they no longer put the cover on the top of motor. #2 They managed to make the front passenger seat so it will not fold down flat ( forward)for long cargo! #3 the digital interface for the speedometer looks like they forgot to finished it with a small digital display for the speed and arrows that stay permanently on, of instead of say a four inch display its closer than less than three inches. #4 DO NOT pull out in front of any moving vehicle because it has the speed of a slug with salt, I think it is the transmission or the computer system, but if you think you are going to floor the gas pedal it will not move very fast. #5 the standard radio is NOT interchangeable with any radio at your local store and I was quoted at best buy over seven hundred for the face plate or in this car the whole front console; moreover, a good blue tooth radio is only a few hundred but you have to buy the console so you are looking a close to a Grand!
