There's an old saying that "opinions are like butt holes - everyone has one" LOL, and this is just mine, so if you've suffered some bad experiences with a DD please don't flame me bro! 
. Of course there are always exceptions to ideas and notions, and I try not to take myself too seriously, and you shouldn't either LOL. In other words, don't let this post or anything on the interwebz make ya mad - life is too short and precious.
Anyhoo, that said, the thought came to me pretty strong the other day outta nowhere that the current Durango platform is OLD. I mean, OLD! Now that might be reason number one for some folks to immediately discount the Durango when shopping to spend their hard earned money LOL, but hear me out please. Since it's so old, but continually getting updates and refreshes, in my mind pretty much all the major bugs and shortcomings have been worked out over the years. REALLY broad brush strokes here - but in my mind, they (Dodge) have now had a really long a$$ time to work things out with this current model/platform (has it been since 2011?), so IMHO many of the little things that didn't work quite right have been polished and updated a bit, so at this point, again IMHO, one is getting a pretty well sorted out vehicle when taking the plunge at the dealership. And this is of course for all the trims/flavors, so no bias here with regard to which one ya may be considering.
Again, there are always exceptions, and yes, to this day some still sadly suffer "dogs" or lemons, cause humans are still involved in their construction, and humans are, well, human. Now this might seem awful "Captain Obvious", but I wanted to share the thought since it came to me SO strong one day when I was surfing the webz looking at all the awesome vehicles we are blessed to choose from in this day and age here in the US.
That is all.
