So we sold our 15 R/T a few months ago for a 4Runner. Wife hates it. Reliability is awesome but it's a slug as was to be expected. She needs/wants a power lift gate etc. Wants another durango. Anyways. we are building it mostly loaded without as much of that safety bs as possible. Want to know what tires come with it if I spend the extra 395 bucks for the all season upgrade. Is it worth it? Also any opinions on the harmon Kardon vs the 9 speaker alpine. We had a 15 grand cherokee with the alpine and it was great. We order tomorrow. Opinions greatly appreciated.

I doubt any packages went away in that none of the options we used to get will still be available. They have probably created new packages though, like 22S which is new. I still think it's just a chip shortage right now and they just can't install some options. Again, I would wait until all options are available unless you can still squeak in a '21.
also looks like the blacktop package comes with performance all season tires which is nice. hopefully they are worth a shit. I kind of wanted some terra grapplers or something but those might look a bit odd on an r/t. hard to say.
Was there an option for tires with the TnG? Or are the Pzeroes the only tire?
There is not a different tire option available with the TnG package.
How are these tires in snow? I read they suck
They will because all season tires are not snow rated. You must get snow tires for snow. All season really only refers to three seasons.
Not sure yet, we just got our first dusting of snow last night and by the time I drove this morning it was already melted. I'm not expecting them to be that great considering the compound and overall tire width.
I’m not expecting great as much as functional in the snow.
So when they sell 3 season tires they mean 2 seasons and all season 3 season. 😆

I notice this dealer sheet only shows MSRP? Is the dealer quoting you MSRP only?
If you want to go to Atlanta to pick up a Durango, you can call Mike Clinnin at Mall of Georgia CDJR. Mike will go 5% under Invoice (FWP) on orders if you tell him you're from the forums.
Atlanta might be a drive for you. But if your current dealer is only showing MSRP and not the FWP that goes with it, there is a lot of money you could save.

I know for the 2022 models there is now R/T Plus trim level and the R/T Plus includes the HK stereo.
Maybe you have to select the R/T Plus to get the option for the BluRay Entertainment system.
that's what I was thinking. It's all good. we didn't want the other crap that came with the plus. she got everything she wanted. Kids have iPads so not necessary. Crazy we got lucky on the color. They dropped a lot of color options for 2022.

good, I'm glad you got what you need and works for you.
we came to the same conclusion on the Entertainment system. we have 4 kids ages 16 down to 7. we always buy a Chrysler van and until this one we always got the overhead DVD system. when we went shopping for a Chrysler Pacifica last summer, we found a 2019 Limited that had everything we wanted except for the Entertainment system.
I ALMOST paid a local shop to install a high quality head rest system. but then I sat down and really thought it out. I decided the $20 monthly for the WiFi hot spot and ~ $130 each for 4 Samsung tablets with cases was a smarter way to go.
and that's worked out better for us. each kid can pop on headphones/ earbuds and nerd out to their particular favorite.

Don't worry about the P-Zeros. If you don't like them they wear so quickly you will be trying something else after 15-18K miles.

is the 2nd row console option really $1,295 for 2022?
this is $595 for 2021.
Wow! Disney must own Dodge now. I thought that console was $300 in prior years.
