Greetings! picked up this Durango to get the wife up and out of a rear drive Chrysler and into something with more room.
Things Dodge nailed from the factory: the 8-speed's gearing and the engine's throttle tuning for this 3.6 // the F8 green color // the 10.1'' u-connect 5.
For 90% of driving, power feels plentiful. Only when flooring it, are you reminded of the need for a v-8... It does drink like a v-8 so there's that...
Seats were actually cloth and a number of things you'd expect were missing - vanity lights on sun visor mirrors. Power rear hatch. Remote start. Power passenger seat.
Brakes has slight warp at 21k miles.. and were sooooo corroded... factory tires had only a little life left so sold them on fb marketplace.
So, our new to us Durango got fresh 3-yr Duralast black coated rotors, black 1'' wheel spacers and fresh Michelin LTX tires in the factory size.
And mahogany leather on all 3 rows via Katzkin mobile install. Heated/cooled at front row.
So far it's good. Lowering springs ordered (Megan racing .9'' front and 1.6'' back)
