I liked it because its got cloth seats instead of the pleather seats they sometimes use. The cloth seats are way more comfortable and way more durable than the "fancy" seats they put in the limited models. Never hot in the summer, never cold in the winter, and no rips, tears, burns or anything else. The interior is as good as the exterior. My son loves the Durango because he says its so clearly made for a man to drive. My wife doesn't like it for the same reason.
Anyway, its in PERFECT condition, and looks like its brand new. It doesn't even have brake dust baked in to the front alloys. It literally looks like a 5 year old brand-new car with 67,000 miles on it. It has the AM/FM, CD player with Sirius Satellite built in (works great, yes, I am a subscriber). The thing has bluetooth built-in from the factory too, but the proprietary "UConnect" system Chrysler installs in its vehicles is not as good as some of the other systems, so I had a Parrot 9100 installed in addition. The Parrot is the gold standard for bluetooth systems, so it made sense to add it to the car since it has streaming technology built in and the factory bluetooth only works with the phone. It has bucket seats up front, a triple folding seat in the middle row and a fold-down third row as well. Seats 7 comfortably, and 8 is fine too, though three in the back row gets a little tight.
The thing runs and drives great, has buckets of power when necessary, and is completely utilitarian. The tires and brakes are like new, and it has a nice Draw-Tight hitch system installed. With 355 horses running, it can pull a house if you want it to. It does not have a sunroof. That's another reason why I liked the car. I hate sunroofs.
Unfortunately, because my wife doesn't like the car, I've got to sell it because I just can't afford to keep both the Durango and my other car at the same time, and my other car has a very strong emotional tie to it.
There's not a whole lot of room in the price though, so don't bother making low offers. I need to get very close to what I'm asking because that's what I still owe on the car. The good news is, the price I'm asking is well under retail anyway, so you won't find another '08 HEMI with low miles any cheaper, and absolutely not in the kind of fantastic condition my car is in. And oh by the way, its also got an extended warranty on it, which I think is able to be assigned to a new owner. I think its got about 4 more years on the warranty!

Dodge offering novel 1-year lease on '14 Challenger and Charger models
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Dodge is just days away from unveiling refreshed versions of the Charger and Challenger at the 2014 New York Auto Show, models promising updated styling and new powertrain options. Depending on how you look at it, the company is either so confident in its forthcoming 2015 models that it's offering an interesting Double-Up lease deal on the current vehicles, or it's so eager to clear out existing stock that it's resorting to novel lease deals. In any case, what they present is an interesting scenario, one which allows buyers to get the existing model right now, and then trade up to the facelifted 2015 models in one year.
Starting April 17, when the refreshed cars debut through the end of August, buyers can lease a 2014 Charger or Challenger for one year and exchange it for a three-year lease on a 2015 model next year, with no additional money down and the same monthly payment. Customers can even switch vehicles when the new lease starts. If drivers want to buy the '15, they get $1,000 off the purchase price. To be eligible, both leases must use the same dealership and be financed through Chrysler Capital. The Double-Up deal excludes the SRT versions of both cars and Charger SE models.
To offset the flood of one-year-old models coming back to dealerships, Dodge has struck a deal with rental car agency Enterprise, which has agreed to buy them all. "One-year leases are highly unusual in the industry," said company spokesperson Ralph Kisiel, and the fleet sale deal is what makes it possible.
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks
Sat, 09 Nov 2013Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."
