Love Durango , high sales, high durability, high price to re-sale as a used car, they should leave this model at least 5 years more because looks very high tech , the leds and tail lamps are great !! this baby looks as a Sport SUV!
I’ve owned a Porsche, an Escalade and number of pick ups. The R/T has heated seats & steering wheel - fast enough to get on down the road and is great to travel out at the beach unloading.& loading gear! The R/T is the perfect blend of all three for me, I could use more leg room, however I don’t drive ol girl enough to complain! An engineering marvel, the transmission alone is worth the price of admission! The sound is awesome I love to remote start and just listen, for some reason the R/T Challenger my neighbor has a quieter start up, and sound appears when driven - and I did not see one new nothin! I had just bought ol girl and was heading home to FL from TX, saw a 6.7L we nodded. Light turned green I was still shifting and he was a quarter mile down the road! All I remember were taillights - driver slowed we nodded and I gave a ‘courtesy’ nod. Fastern’ greased lightening! Now I’m 64, retired & living at the beach, every now & then I blow her out 🤣 in the 2 mi to the beach! Peace
Is entry into the third row possible with car seats installed in both mid row buckets? I actually have three car seats. So either I would need a bench second row or I need to be able to access the third row without removing a car seat from the second row. Thanks!
I like that Dodge doesn't re-design the whole thing. I'd rather have updates. This thing still looks amazing. More manufacturers should do the same. They should just perfect the models they already have instead of starting from scratch. The Dodge Durango is still a very competitive SUV.
Does anyone know if the R/T has power FOLDING mirrors? The specs list power mirrors, but that may just mean they can be adjusted with interior switch...need more descriptive info from Dodge. Thanks in advance!
i have a 2018 RT BB5 Blue and the only thing i saw different its the trailer brake assist button and the roof light button was change a little bit ... the rest is almost the same
so what if your parking sensing camera's couldn't also project a blank image where your license plate is to have a bit of privacy in public areas while parked and not moving. Is there any law your plate has to be viewed while you're not driving?
I have a 2014 which I love but it’s getting long in the tooth. My year was the first year of the current body style. Time to upgrade interior and exterior. Would love to see a panoramic roof, heads up display, new nav like in the Ram etc... hopefully it’s on the table for 2021.
love the color iam looking at this or the grand cherokee summit... the summit is up there $55k this is a nice alternative they seem like they most of the same the 3rd row is nice ya never know when u might need it
Rides better than Jeep Grand Cherokee because of the longer wheel base. We went from a V8 Grand Cherokee to the RT no comparison with the 3rd row seating, captains chairs, longer wheel base etc... I’m pretty sure it has better tow capacity as well.
Just rented a 2019 (middle range engine 5. Something litres hemi engine) to drive to Niagara Falls with 6 passengers.looked and sounded like a good SUV and everyone were comfortable. Is that a reliable SUV ?
the Durango and Grand Cherokee are not the same vehicle underneath. The Durango underpinnings are from the days of Daimler-Chrysler GL architecture and the current Grand Cherokee is of a Fiat/Alpha Rameo Design. I just hope they aren't going to the older Body on Frame design that is rumored.
So far the reviews I've seen of different SUVs they all seem to go right into the hood or inside the car instead of starting with a walk around for those that are not that familiar and want to see the shape and "profile" of the car. I for example prefer a boxier profile vs all those smooth edges sameness I keep seeing.
The Durango is one of the coolest SUV's out there but the price is high it's better to wait and buy one used in 5.7 hemi I've seen them as low as $36k with only a couple thousand miles and brand new it's going to hit you for $50k and up
I agree but just look for months it’s on sale and check for a great deal on a new one at the last 4 days of every month. They can cut a crazy deal to meat their needed number of sales for bonuses
@ottobaby0815 it also depends on your credit score but I usually like to do my car loans with my credit union my current interest rate is 3.9% i have so so credit
ottobaby0815 I would highly recommend leasing one and then buying it afterward. If you spend $12,000 leasing a new Durango over the three years then your purchase price will be lowered by 10,000 to 12,000 depending on your credit. It’s actually a really good way for most people to not even pay hardly any interest for the first two or three years. I’ve done the math and it can be cheaper to lease and then purchase then to just purchase from the start half the time
I love my 2018 Durango! They look best in class in my opinion. Nice features for the price because dodge usually has great rebates on Durango to make it more than competitive. I love mine. But in typical dodge fashion it has given me my share of headaches.... so there's that 😂😂
@@cry2urmom757 it's been back in the shop 11 times and I've owned it for exactly a year and 2 weeks..... 16 times including actual service appointments oil change tire rotate etc. My windows had issues going up and down. The air blew warm. Theres an annoying rattle it's currently in the shop for and also it wont go into gear sometimes....
Mike R just buy a brand new one because Jeep is known as a fun vehicle and Dodge is known as a tough vehicle so people who buy them typically abuse them more than someone who buys a Honda with half the power. If you want one life‘s too short to drive a boring car and my friend bought a brand new 2013 fully loaded Rubicon for $37,000 after putting 108,000 miles on it you never even touch the spark plugs and traded it in to the dealership on the brand new redesign and they gave him $22,000 then sold it for $26,000 at the dealership. If that was any other brand such as a top model Ford Edge or Honda CRV that was bought for $37,000 After 100,000 miles they sell for $14,000 to $15,000 which means trade-in is $12,000 at best So if you want a jeep or Dodge it will save you $10,000 in five years compared to the competition. Now where people get the problems is because they think jeeps are made to take tons of offroad abuse or they don’t know how to Offroad and they tear it up as rock beats metal. Look up videos on UA-cam there’s so many people doing dumb things with jeeps and then they blame them for having problems. I’ve even seen someone who came to our dealership bought a used Jeep with 120,000 miles that was lifted with 37 inch tires and beat to death come back and complain that his jeep had problems saying he’ll never buy one again his Chevy lasted 180k miles and I just asked him did the Chevy climb boulders twisting things that wherent meant to be and he got upset.
@@cry2urmom757 yeah... I read alot of consumer data and reporting and they seemed to have worked out so many of their kinks... and i know i could have possibly gotten a lemon. But it's still frustrating. Never had this problem with any of my Mustangs or my lincoln.... but i genuinely love the way my durango drives and handles and rides. It's so nice... just a little glitchy
I wouldn’t change the toughest looking suv on the road either. Not to mention the price for a 3rd row suv with the resale value these have is amazing. That’s what saves you thousands in the long run
@@adrig8388 Don't know.. covid19 delayed a lot of things. W were suppose to be building the hellcat Durango back in may. But production has been shitty because everybody's scared to work right now. It'll be before the year is out. The Durango just won the JD power quality award so there trying to hurry up and build the damn truck.
I wound up getting a 2014 Limited with the 5.7 there's nothing much different in the RT. Mine looks like a sleeper the Durango RT screams Rad Dad LOL it's still a nice truck however.
And also the gt has the hood with the scoops and vents to make it have the look of a r/t or srt a better look than the other 6cylinders in the durango lineup
It's coming. Moving the Durango to the RAM Plant, got delayed because of demand for the RAM Classic. New Durango will be Body on Frame using the RAM chassis.
@@johnnynitross yeah, I know that, But when? I've been waiting for a new design for 2 years now. I'm so sick of the same looking Durango. Now I bet when they finally make the change, that design will only last for a couple years. 😒
So it’s basically the same on the inside since like 2016. Needs a big refresh. I want a Durango so bad too. But compared to the newer SUV/Crossovers it’s looking old
No SUV on the market can compete. Looks wise its better looking than the rest of them, just needs an all new interior and tech. The design will be hard to surpass.
Rogue Leader The 2015 design was done by recruited Mercedes-Benz engineers and is still way nicer than any Subaru which has the technology of a 2011 Durango. Not to mention still nicer than Ford Chevy Honda Toyota Kia. Even police are starting to use the Durango after they ran through several tests and found it was the most durable vehicle up to at least 200,000 miles. Their touchscreen is way easier to use than anybody else’s as well, well it’s not as up-to-date as a new Mercedes it’s half the price in a bigger SUV
It’s a 3rd row suv designed by recruited Mercedes Benz engineers. it’s supposed to be heavy and still is lighter than many competitors not to mention way easier screens to use than Chevy ford etc and I see them at dealers for $34k with leather and heated seats what more do you want?
95% of cars out there get refreshed every 5 or 6 years and this is their 5th year of the redesign it’s not at all off track for the average vehicle with nicer quality
Durango Mike I was the same way at first but after driving them I would highly highly recommend a new RT and throw a TwinTurbo on that. It should cost less than 50 grand total after the turbo if you find it on a month with the right discounts That way you can have over 500 hp and that hemi can actually get all the air it needs. In fact the RT and SRT feel very similar and I work at a dealership so I’ve driven these cars a few times. If you want I would go test drive one so you can think about before making a decision and test drive a jeep grand Cherokee SRT 2015 or newer to get the same speed as the Durango SRT.
Caitlyn Nicole I recommend a 5.7L truck badge that’s what I did and it looks really good. Also a $20 eBay windshield banner for the front and back really completes the look and I get way more compliments now
Dude you got to start speaking a little bit slower! You sound like you just want to get to the end of it! If you want us interested in your videos you got it sounds like you are interested in them as well... this is why Doug is super successful. Best of luck!
FCA engineers need to update the Journey, Durango, Grand Cherokee, 300, Charger and Challenger are getting old too. Over priced for the same model as 2016 lol.
I see what you mean as they’re based on the 2015 redesign. But look at how nice all the materials are and all the electronics you get in the dash, as well as The best touchscreen on the market compared to a Toyota. They’re 2020 4runner design is so old looking and cheap quality not to mention Toyota and Subaru both don’t have the technology of a 2015 dodge or jeep which is ironic because they’re still cheaper than the competition. Not to mention i’ve seen a few Durango’s with leather seats, 8” touchscreens and many more features for $35,000 after discounts. A base Tahoe cost more than that and you’ll lose thousands more in depreciation in a Tahoe which is money just disappearing. Overall the quality materials were nicer than Mercedes or BMW in 2015 if you directly compare them and most vehicles only refresh themselves every five years
I don't understand how dodge justifies the price difference from a V6 charger base price of $30,795 to ridiculous jump to $44,395 🤣 that's a $13,600 difference. My Charger 392 base is only 10k price difference from a V6 charger base. This R/T doesn't even have a 6.4 it only has the 5.7. what are you getting for that extra 13k? It's gonna be a no from me. Maybe I would consider a gently used one, but even then.
Dodge is literally so sad. They haven’t updated any of their cars in years. Some of them look like they’re from 2008. The only cars they kind of pay attention to is the charger and challenger.
Designed by Mercedes-Benz engineers just five years ago. No need to change the toughest looking SUV on the market with very nice quality materials for the mid $30,000 price range
It’s a 2015 design by recruited Mercedes-Benz engineers. I don’t know why Ford. Toyota Honda and epically Subaru can’t catch up. Subaru has the electronics of a 2011 Dodge Durango but more complicated to use I don’t get why they don’t update it
They need the in-dash screen from the Ram. And Dodge needs to stop putting the hood scoops on anything less than the SRT. You want the hood scoop then pay up!
You’re right, a 3rd row tough suv that’s faster than The average sports car made today. My friend bought a brand new RT in 2013 for $37,000 and after 108,000 miles he traded it into the dealership on a brand new one and they gave him $22,000 then sold it for $26,000 If that was a $37,000 Tahoe, or Ford Explorer Look at the trade in value on those. By owning the Durango people save $6000-$8000 over a Chevy or Ford in five years. Not to mention they can get 25 mpg with 305hp
$35,000 for a 3rd row suv with leather, 300hp, most user friendly electronics on the market. 8.4” touchscreen and huge center screen. What else touches that price and that’s sticker off an SXT before discounts!
@@chadhanson4369 you joking right? The Durango its famously known for the lack of durability. Or probably the worst resell suv on the market. I guarantee you. By November you can find at 2020 Durango used. Why because customers trade them like hot potatoes right after they buy them due to problems.
Jonathan Oviedo I 100% agree pre-2011 Durango’s very poorly made and I don’t know what dodge was doing but I would never own one. After they got new management in 2008 Because of these issues they recruited Mercedes-Benz engineers. After that all the police tests realized they’re the best vehicles to handle the amount of abuse they give their cars. They had more technology in 2011 then a new Subaru does, just look at their dash they had more technology in 2011 then a new Subaru does, just look at their dash. I would to the dealership for a long time and have a coworker who has for over 20 years he said people used to have issues with them but now there’s a reason why dodge alone sold as many cars as Subaru did last year well only having five models to choose from. And having very high customer satisfaction and reliability
Jonathan Oviedobecause of resale value Durango‘s are used as fleet vehicles from rental companies to construction to police so yes you will find used 2020s for sale because once a rental company finds a better deal they sell their vehicles. You realize you can find vehicles that aren’t even one year old for sale all the time every manufacture and some of them even have leases that only last a year. when a 2020 comes out in 2019 and you lease it for a year you can find a used one in 2020 easily
Who are these customers your talking about? My bosses get 2-4 new cars every year to hit their sales mark and get bonuses and that plus rental companies are why u see used ones. I also talk to hundreds of people a year who own them as part of my job is to get people who own that vehicle back for a new one from the service department (getting oil changes) or repeat customers and I see positive things everyday....
Seriously long in the tooth. FCA is such a one trick pony. They think the solution to everything is a Hemi. Their line ups in general is pretty pathetic. The Hellcat and SRT vehicles are impressive but the rest of their offerings are FAR behind the competition - even domestically. They need a refresh across their entire line up. No innovation. No hybrids, no electric options on the horizon - just more Hemis. Ford and Chevy are crushing them, and they cannot compete with them. They can't even compete with Kia/Hyundai when it comes to regular family vehicles. Sedans and small sedans/crossovers? Getting crushed by everyone. I like Chrysler/Dodge and have had 5 good ones, but nowadays if it's not an SRT or Hellcat, it's well behind other offerings on the market.
I like Ben Hardy’s reviews because they are short and straight to the point. Keep them coming
just bought a 2018. Do yourself a favor. Buy a used 2018 with low miles. Literally nothing is different. Save yourself 20 grand. sheesh
Your right sr .. I got a 2017 with 25k miles and it's a great suv
Just a matter of time your racetrack tail lights will collect water try to catch it before the warranty is out
Just got a 2019 nothing is new you’re right

How is durango as far as durability, 2019 rt durango? Or 2020 telluride or cx9?
Great video 💯 new subscriber
@Ben-Hardy I noticed that Ram has full size crew cabs truck with V-6. What are your thoughts on that and why don’t you do a review on one?

They should’ve put the ram big screen in there lol
Do they still come with seats so complicated that the best trained tech at the dealership after 4 visit still can't replace the leatherette correctly?
That’s a bad dealership and it’s privately owned they just pay dodge for the name.
I might buy this or the 4runner TRD pro... still hard to choose. Which one would you get
Ana Conda 4 runner for off-road and Durango for sporty driving
Looks the same as my 2015 besides the grill n badges. Glad my seats say R/T instead of the to slant dodge lines

For the love of god. Will they redesign the damn thing already? It’s too heavy, the windows are too small and the space is poorly used.
It’s a 3rd row suv designed by recruited Mercedes Benz engineers.
it’s supposed to be heavy and still is lighter than many competitors not to mention way easier screens to use than Chevy ford etc and I see them at dealers for $34k with leather and heated seats what more do you want?
95% of cars out there get refreshed every 5 or 6 years and this is their 5th year of the redesign it’s not at all off track for the average vehicle with nicer quality
Decent review, I love my 2016 R/T. But for that price I will go with a used SRT.
Durango Mike I was the same way at first but after driving them I would highly highly recommend a new RT and throw a TwinTurbo on that. It should cost less than 50 grand total after the turbo if you find it on a month with the right discounts
That way you can have over 500 hp and that hemi can actually get all the air it needs. In fact the RT and SRT feel very similar and I work at a dealership so I’ve driven these cars a few times.
If you want I would go test drive one so you can think about before making a decision and test drive a jeep grand Cherokee SRT 2015 or newer to get the same speed as the Durango SRT.
@@chadhanson4369 only thing they changed were the back lights. Other than that, pretty much the same look Since......... I can't remember
My car 😍😍😍
What If the made a car called dodge dragon
I want to get my hands on one. I would like to get some content for my channel on one of these before I buy.
I have the 2019 r/t literally the same thing just not the hemi tag
Caitlyn Nicole get one off Amazon. Lol then you’d basically have a 2020. 😁
Jay Jackson exactly! 😂😂
Caitlyn Nicole I recommend a 5.7L truck badge that’s what I did and it looks really good.
Also a $20 eBay windshield banner for the front and back really completes the look and I get way more compliments now
👍👍👍
Dude you got to start speaking a little bit slower! You sound like you just want to get to the end of it! If you want us interested in your videos you got it sounds like you are interested in them as well... this is why Doug is super successful. Best of luck!
If you guys want something with a stronger engine just wait for this year so they release the dodge durango SRT HellCat!
Nah
The 2021 Durango SRT is gonna be like 100k
Get it the red seats
Srt option only my friend
@@deewalk1337 I have an rt with red seats
Everyone gets a Hellcat Hood!
The car seats are selling me already
I’m watching this video in my 2018 SRT Durango LMFAO
Yeah ok
LivingMyLife you butthurt?😂
Eren Jimenez ok weeb
FCA engineers need to update the Journey, Durango, Grand Cherokee, 300, Charger and Challenger are getting old too.
Over priced for the same model as 2016 lol.
I see what you mean as they’re based on the 2015 redesign. But look at how nice all the materials are and all the electronics you get in the dash, as well as The best touchscreen on the market compared to a Toyota. They’re 2020 4runner design is so old looking and cheap quality not to mention Toyota and Subaru both don’t have the technology of a 2015 dodge or jeep which is ironic because they’re still cheaper than the competition.
Not to mention i’ve seen a few Durango’s with leather seats, 8” touchscreens and many more features for $35,000 after discounts. A base Tahoe cost more than that and you’ll lose thousands more in depreciation in a Tahoe which is money just disappearing.
Overall the quality materials were nicer than Mercedes or BMW in 2015 if you directly compare them and most vehicles only refresh themselves every five years
Is this a 2019 or 2020?
Benny Bodash 2020 like the title says
Benny Bodash 1985
😂😂😂😂 I just want to know who’s car is this?!? 😂😂😂😂
In other nothing new just a 2011 model but nicer! Waiting for the new version with a hellcat.
My mom has it I love the car
😍😍😍😍😍
I really wished all car reviews would only cover features that are unique to each vehicle. I don't need to see all the common stuff.
Joey Garcia people want to see everything when they are buying a car, not just the unique features.
We need a redesign ASAP.
This was more of your review, rather than a "what's new" video.
Nicholas McNeill that’s the joke, nothing is new
what is the price of a 2020 Durango Hemi ?????-ok. it's 60 grand--ouch
No, I'm buying one tomorrow for 40k. There's alot of deals right now
Hemi badge adds 200$
I don't understand how dodge justifies the price difference from a V6 charger base price of $30,795 to ridiculous jump to $44,395 🤣 that's a $13,600 difference. My Charger 392 base is only 10k price difference from a V6 charger base. This R/T doesn't even have a 6.4 it only has the 5.7. what are you getting for that extra 13k? It's gonna be a no from me. Maybe I would consider a gently used one, but even then.
14 round town💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Looks like the toyota sequoia
They are sharp looking for a wagon.
Dodge is literally so sad. They haven’t updated any of their cars in years. Some of them look like they’re from 2008. The only cars they kind of pay attention to is the charger and challenger.
Your camera work is way to shakey and all over the place. I feel like I'm drunk when I'm watching your videos.
Nice...just the iPhone....nothing different from previous models
Designed by Mercedes-Benz engineers just five years ago. No need to change the toughest looking SUV on the market with very nice quality materials for the mid $30,000 price range
When is Dodge and Chrysler going to re do their cars. All the cars look the same no new interiors .
KEENAN JORDAN next year it sounds like
It’s a 2015 design by recruited Mercedes-Benz engineers. I don’t know why Ford. Toyota Honda and epically Subaru can’t catch up. Subaru has the electronics of a 2011 Dodge Durango but more complicated to use I don’t get why they don’t update it
why the fuck someone can aford it when i can't
Really 60 grand get the f out of here Durango. Wouldn't pay that much.
nothing new no parking button
🇸🇦
They need the in-dash screen from the Ram. And Dodge needs to stop putting the hood scoops on anything less than the SRT. You want the hood scoop then pay up!
You're paying up to 70 grand for a Durango now a days and it doesn't even have buttons for your seats to lower? What a joke.
jeeps takes the win on this one!
Kevan Gunna what Jeep?
@@BenHardyCars the new trackhawk
Same company bro lol they all take the win on this one.
They're built at the same plant in detroit on the same assembly line.. lol
And i build them.. lol ...FCA for the win.. lol
جارجر
So its basically a mini van for soccer moms lol
Xix Chi 😂😂😂
LOL you must drive a civic. (Non R Spec)
You’re right, a 3rd row tough suv that’s faster than The average sports car made today.
My friend bought a brand new RT in 2013 for $37,000 and after 108,000 miles he traded it into the dealership on a brand new one and they gave him $22,000 then sold it for $26,000
If that was a $37,000 Tahoe, or Ford Explorer Look at the trade in value on those.
By owning the Durango people save $6000-$8000 over a Chevy or Ford in five years. Not to mention they can get 25 mpg with 305hp
@@Twittavelli twitta na bro even worst, 2014 5.o automatic mustang, run bitch 😂
@@BenHardyCars ben hardy will they make 2020 jeep srt ??
Ooh cool its looks just like a 2016 Durango and they too overpriced
$35,000 for a 3rd row suv with leather, 300hp, most user friendly electronics on the market. 8.4” touchscreen and huge center screen.
What else touches that price and that’s sticker off an SXT before discounts!
@@chadhanson4369 you joking right? The Durango its famously known for the lack of durability. Or probably the worst resell suv on the market. I guarantee you. By November you can find at 2020 Durango used. Why because customers trade them like hot potatoes right after they buy them due to problems.
Jonathan Oviedo I 100% agree pre-2011 Durango’s very poorly made and I don’t know what dodge was doing but I would never own one. After they got new management in 2008 Because of these issues they recruited Mercedes-Benz engineers.
After that all the police tests realized they’re the best vehicles to handle the amount of abuse they give their cars. They had more technology in 2011 then a new Subaru does, just look at their dash they had more technology in 2011 then a new Subaru does, just look at their dash.
I would to the dealership for a long time and have a coworker who has for over 20 years he said people used to have issues with them but now there’s a reason why dodge alone sold as many cars as Subaru did last year well only having five models to choose from. And having very high customer satisfaction and reliability
Jonathan Oviedobecause of resale value Durango‘s are used as fleet vehicles from rental companies to construction to police so yes you will find used 2020s for sale because once a rental company finds a better deal they sell their vehicles.
You realize you can find vehicles that aren’t even one year old for sale all the time every manufacture and some of them even have leases that only last a year.
when a 2020 comes out in 2019 and you lease it for a year you can find a used one in 2020 easily
Who are these customers your talking about? My bosses get 2-4 new cars every year to hit their sales mark and get bonuses and that plus rental companies are why u see used ones.
I also talk to hundreds of people a year who own them as part of my job is to get people who own that vehicle back for a new one from the service department (getting oil changes) or repeat customers and I see positive things everyday....
"Pound feet of torque" wtf is this guy sayin, that just pissed me off. "FOOT POUNDS OF TORQUE!!!!"
"All New" should mean...all new, which this is not.
Hate to see what that car looks like at 2,000 miles ..nasty
Exactly the comment I was looking for
It looks so awkward
This guy talks REALLY fast.....
I have a 2015 Durango limited same damn car lol for much less don’t buy new
Seriously long in the tooth. FCA is such a one trick pony. They think the solution to everything is a Hemi. Their line ups in general is pretty pathetic. The Hellcat and SRT vehicles are impressive but the rest of their offerings are FAR behind the competition - even domestically. They need a refresh across their entire line up. No innovation. No hybrids, no electric options on the horizon - just more Hemis. Ford and Chevy are crushing them, and they cannot compete with them. They can't even compete with Kia/Hyundai when it comes to regular family vehicles. Sedans and small sedans/crossovers? Getting crushed by everyone. I like Chrysler/Dodge and have had 5 good ones, but nowadays if it's not an SRT or Hellcat, it's well behind other offerings on the market.
Loaded with too much . Wait until warranty runs out and electronic break. Otherwise...very nice but expensive .
Oh look, another car that dies at every red light.
this model does not have the start stop feature
believe it's no shit difference, lol, i'll buy a used 2018 for half price, lol........
