    Good review, thanks. I have a 2019 RT with around 50,000 miles and its been a great vehicle. Lots of room and fun to drive. I still have my 2005 Durango with 200,000 miles on it. Still runs great but starting to rust pretty bad. Even If it craps out tomorrow for a vehicle I paid about $25,000 for 18 years ago I got my moneys worth.

    Great review! We're on the same journey. I bought mine used with 33k miles on it... now rolling up on 50k. Absolutely Love it! Still looks brand new.

      I’m on the fence with a 2020 RT blacktop Durango 40k on it, certified pre owned no accidents and pristine service history. Price is great!!! Any common big ticket problems on these after 100k?
      I drive the GT model often for work, but the hemi is calling my name !!!
      Thank you

    Great video! Around the 8 minute mark, you mentioned the SRT version having the 5.7 liter when yet it's the 6.4 liter. I'll be in the market this upcoming spring and I'm considering this and the SRT version. You mentioned the weight of the vehicle which is why I'd lean more towards the SRT considering the 6.4 will move the vehicle a lot better. The Tow N Go package is pretty tempting though.

    • @orangeblockgarage

      Tow n go is sweet although I do have a Jeep SRT as well. It is way faster but the Tow n Go holds its own in its own right!

    Thanks for the review, I was actually looking at a Ford Bronco but then my friend told me Jeep/Dodge are having massive rebates on new vehicles from them. I checked the Wrangler out then decided to look at the Grand Cherokee, I was disappointed to see they don’t offer the Hemi anymore. So I looked at the Durango and was impressed with the look, features and price. Plus the Hemi’s fuel economy isn’t worse than the other vehicles I was looking at.
    Between the sales and my companies X plan, I might be able to get a mind blowing deal on one. Plus I feel now is the time to get a V8 as I heard Jeep/Dodge is going to move away from the Hemi to an Turbo I6.

    Truck? Car? family SUV. Feel more of a "male." I bought my truck. Now, to make someone feel better about owning/possessing a family SUV. I would purchase something like this, not huge like the Expeditions, Tahoes, or Yukon. Seems to be more fun on the street on course. I more of the off the asphalt with my RAM.
