hi and thnx. back in '04-05, jeep was knocking the explorer, chevy tried with the (trail)blazer, but it was Dodge that really nailed it in my mind. just the right size, body on frame construction, great 4.7 V8 standard with AWD. this recent body style change made the difference even greater. nicely styled, modern interior, plenty of room and a great value. this is a nice one owner vehicle with just 64k actual miles, and it looks it.
this Dodge is a little unusual in that it was as give back to the bank (I have title and all paperwork in hand). the lender was a very large local credit union, and the previous owner simply had to give the car back due to health reasons. how little they drove this Durango makes me understand. at just over 6000 miles a year, this baby barely had time to stretch her legs, let alone get pushed hard. the ride and drive are great, engine smooth as silk, 4x4 and more, full power, windows, locks, cruise, tilt, gauges, stereo, a/c, abs, air bags and more !@! something like a 4 year old car in ride and performance.
but, it is an older SUV and not perfect. we had it at the mechanic's for a check up and wound up replacing the power steering pump owing to a small seal leak, front brakes were serviced with new pads and rotors, a/c was charged up and a bulb or two replaced. that's it, all done... oh, then it went to the tire store for a new front tire (had a small bubble in old tire sidewall) and they gave it a 4 wheel alignment for good measure. I kept the receipts and it was a good chunk of money, but better it is behind me than pass on a problem to next owner.
great engine and tranny, awd, cold /ac, great on the road, or for errands around town or blasting down the highway at 75 mph. clean, smooth, comfy and reliable. these cars came from Chrysler with a 7 year 100,000 warranty, and I can see why. they built great cars and SUV's, about as good as you get. drive in style, with confidence and the security of all wheel drive, 24/7.
there are a couple of things that go beyond worthy of fixing: there is damage to the rear bumper cover right side and middle, there is a light wear tear in driver's seat cushion, right front fender has some damage and paint chips (hard to photo), spare tire and the two rear tires are showing wear, normal enough - they don't last forever.
so, just bid and buy, drive it home. clean title, car, key, emissions, etc. no issues, just gas and go. please see all photos carefully, I took all the good and the bad. feel free to email or call anytime, I am happy to help. or, just come by and say hello, take a test drive and you will be convinced.

Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
Old vs. New: 2014 SRT Viper takes on upgraded 16-year-old Dodge Viper
Fri, 08 Feb 2013It's easy to play the "Would you rather have a New X or an Old Y with a bunch of upgrades?" game more often than we care to admit, but the crew at Car and Driver have taken bench racing to the next level with their latest video. In it, the magazine pits a brand-new 2014 SRT Viper against a highly modified 1997 Dodge Viper GTS. There are 16 years between the time this particular GTS rolled off the production line and when the new car bowed, but that doesn't mean the old snake's owners have been sitting on their hands.
Thanks to a spate of modifications, the GTS offers up a better power to weight ratio than the new machine, but is that enough to overcome the technological leap forward represented by the 2014 Viper? We won't spoil it for you. You'll just have to check out the full clip below for yourself.
