We test drove the V6 and liked it, but with the Grand Cherokee only getting 14-15 mpg downhill with a tail wind, we decided to go with the Hemi because there was no way it would be worse! Lol

Yes, New Jersey they pump for you, but the station I go to I pump the gas.

It had a V6 4Runner before this. I needed a V8 in my life. Hemi was the go to w/o hesitation.

In regards to gas prices, I filled up from about an 1/8 of a tank to full for $37. $1.79 here in Lexington. I could get used to that...

Here in LA, we're paying about $2.75 for Plus and $2.85 for premium. When we test drove the Durango, the salesman had us test drive the R/T first and then a V6 after that. I'm fairly certain he did that on purpose so that we wouldn't even want to consider a V6 after driving one with a Hemi first and sure enough we didn't.

Our gas mileage is terrible (in the 11-15 mpg range but its 95% city driving, 10 miles roundtrip to and from work, in the hills, with about 20 stops along the way counting lights, stop signs etc). We knew before buying that our mpgs would be bad especially in comparison to the Honda Pilot we were getting rid of, but I told my wife if we're spending this much money on a vehicle to make sure its one we love to drive.

I looked and drove both.I considered a 14 sxt rally, but it was almost $35k and the rt ended up being $39k. For the $4-5k difference, you get so much more with the rt that it was a no-brainer. And it has a Hemi! Saw gas for $1.99 here today.

39k for a R/T How on earth? RWD? I'm looking at a limited v6 with only a couple extra options and the best price i can get is around 39k....

I had it located because I wanted the 2nd row bench and the only options I wanted was nappa, nav, and polished/black wheels. That was like trying to find unicorn around here, but there was a few in Florida. It listed for $42, but I got it for $39.

I drove a 12 R/T and liked but ended up buying a 14 Ralleye. Gas is down to $1.70 at some places here and I have driven from Houston to Shreveport and back on a tank of gas. The V6 is all the power most people need. I enjoy my Ralleye but of course I would love an R/T but here there is a 10-12 thousand dollars difference in price. Everybody that has every rode in the D were very impressed it was just a V6, and I do drive it hard I have found the 115ish mph limiter many times on several road trips, the 8 speed trans also makes a world of difference also. My main reason for the Ralleye was it had the looks of an R/T minus all the bells and whistles, being in the auto industry and working with high end cars, I have learned how expensive some of the creature comforts can cost when they break. It is all just a personal preference both trucks are also and I enjoy my Durango to the fullest, best purchase I have ever made.

Oh, did I forget to mention? The Hemi is so much more powerful. I know there is only 1 second difference in 0-60 time, but the torque is what sells it. I have a 14 GC(Grand Caravan, lol), and the 3.6 is great. It's by far the fastest minivan I've ever driven, but it's no Hemi R/T.

I agree, the eight speed really makes all the difference. I would have gone with the ralleye I took out because I liked the look and it was granite crystal which was my first color choice. I ultimately went with the limited because it had the options I wanted and my dealer offered it at the same cost as the ralleye. Nevermind the fact that the other dealer was pulling shady stuff. I have not found the limiter yet, but am guessing the intune will remove that.

I am a simple kind of guy so the Ralleye really fit me, I have never been a big fan of red as a vehicle color and my wife refused to tell me anything about this truck till I saw it. Its a Pearl Redline Red and it was love at first sight. And I was very impressed with the V6 with that 8 speed, I have driven many V8 that couldn't keep up with that V6 (not talking about the R/T). The knob is still taking time to get used too. I also got the Ralleye for the price other dealers wanted for 2012 SXT's.

I'm running into that situation. The price of a limited with all the options I want is only 500 more. Kinda be stupid not to get the limited.

 

[Griffin R/T]

Almost 2 years ago I gave up my 11' Camaro SS when my kids out grew the back seat. At the time I made a safe choice and went back to a quad cab Silverado. Buying the R/T helped restore the balance lost when I gave up speed and power for functionality. So far I have no regrets. Gas prices falling have been icing on the cake!

I had a 2014 JGC V6 before I got my R/T and I will say that the V6 is nice but it has to work very hard to get that 0-60 in 7.5sec the hemi is like butter it will take off with vigor just off idle. Had the V6 use very week in passing above 50mph my wife wife's mazda 3 would take it in a passing test. In my 20 min mixed driving drive to work I am seeing a 2 mpg difference between the two so it only costs me a few hundred dollars more a year for a lot more satisfying drive.
