Comments

Minor problems with the front driveshaft.

Of the SUVs I drove, and I drove almost all of them, I liked the balance found in the Durango best. The exterior screams "look at me" while the interior is warm and inviting. The power and performance are more than just numbers on a spec sheet. The truck has torque where it is usable and horsepower to spare, even with my 5.2l. this vehicle satisfies my needs and caters to my desires.

None.

Best overall vehicle I've ever had. Not too good on gas, but the power and ability to tow make up for that

Shocks bad @ 20K, ball joints worn out of spec at 20K; This is completely unacceptable by my standards!! webb@effingham.net.

We love this SUV. The way the interior is laid out just makes excellent use of space. The towing capacity is excellent and the overall drivability is excellent. Now after 30k miles I can tell it needs new shocks. But I consider that minor. Gas mileage is not great. But what can you expect from a V8 pulling this type of weight around. Had one trip to the dealer to fix an engine light the second week we had it. No problems since.
