Good Truck, Bad On Fuel, But Worth The Price! — Its a great truck for a great price. I love the room it has in it. It has lots of room for the kids and everyone and then more room for all your stufff in the back! This thing has the power to go everywhere, and the engine to pull it with!

I Love It. — Good truck. Decent gas mileage for an SUV. Lots of space. Easy to maintain, doesnt break down much. Easily accelerates and brakes. There are a few dings and dents, but runs well. It is a great vehicle to drive. Excellent.

The Durango — I have Away's wanted one, the preformance is exellent and If you want a nice looking, good performing, solid truck for work or for yourself, and you don't want to spend over 20K on a new car, then this truck's for you. I have one in silver which I got for 14k there are all kinds of extras and the comfort is awesome, the only down side to this is that it does not get good gas milage i am pulling around 13 mpg

Very roomy. Comfortable seats and air condition covers the entire vehicle.

Magnum V8 engine sucks up the gas.

Big Tough Truck — I bought this Durango while trading in my 2006 Passat. We're in Florida so no real problem buying an older truck down here as long as it's taken care of well. 164k on the odometer when purchased on June 30, 2012. Will update on this vehicle as I drive and own it more.

4WD and lots of seat for many kids if you have them and it is not a minivan LMAO!

Cons

its a sled and crappy gas mileage 12.5 MPG and feels like a "Soccer Mom's" car or the compromise for dad who wants a truck not a mini van

55

The Soccer Mom Car..... — This car was comfortable but I hated it from day 1! it got crappy gas mileage and was expensive to maintain and insure....................................cant think of anything good to say here it! I couldn't see out the windows and I HATED this car! Only good things...it was a DODGE and I could put furniture and lots of stuff in it
