I bought this Durango last year and I didn't know what to expect. I always liked the Durango's looks, but had never really driven one before.
I was much more than impressed when I first felt the power in this engine. I had to go online to see what the horse power was. It states that the 4.7 has 235hp and I can tell you that you will feel every one of those ponies when you drive it.
There was a vibration in the steering wheel when braking, so I just stepped up and had the front brakes completely redone. The steering vibration is now gone, but there is still a smaller vibration from the rear brakes, so it would probably be a good move to replace the rear brakes at some point. I will replace the rear pads and have the rotors turned on a lathe at NAPA for $150 extra if this is something you don't want to do. 90% of your braking power comes from the front brakes, so it will likely be fine to drive as it is for awhile since it has 0 miles on new front brakes.
I replaced the throttle position sensor about 6 months ago because I decided to pressure wash the dust off the engine while it was running and apparently that is not the right thing to do anymore with all of the computerized engine components these days. :) It scared the (insert exclamation here) out of me. Who would think that getting this one sensor wet could cause so much havoc. It would stall or surge at random times and it would stay in 1st gear up to like 60 mph before changing. I thought I really messed up and I am sure that had I taken it to an average shop, they would have got me coming and going, but I have a great shop up in Anacortes and they told me it was a $35 sensor that took 15 minutes to install. They charged me for the part and $25 for labor. It cleared up everything immediately and this thing really runs strong. It shifts healthy and clean. It has a bunch of miles showing, but you can't tell by driving. The guy I bought it from said the engine was rebuilt a few times in its life and you can feel it. There are no leaks and it does not burn oil. The sides and bottom of the engine are very dry and clean. It shows 265,999 miles, but it is a strong running, fun driving, powerful rig. It handles very well. The 4 wheel drive works extremely well. We only used it on a couple of occasions to test it and on ice its perfect, but I even backed it up an uneven steep hill to park it with for sale sign and at the top of the hill, one tire lifted 8" into the air. Most 4x4s would be stuck there with that airborne tire spinning freely. Not this one. I lightly stepped on the accelerator and it smoothly continued up the hill on 3 tires without one slipping tire or even a raised engine speed.
Towing... I have an F250 that is my towing beast. Generally, it can tow anything I put behind it. I searched and searched for accurate information today online, but all of these search engines just want to sell you stuff and you can't just ask a question anymore. From the best I could tell, the F250 weighs about 4300 pounds and according to all sources the 94 Pathfinder weighs 3900 pound (not true). Well, my Pathfinder has oversized tires, 12" of lift, an ARB Australian Winch Bull Bumper, plus a Warn 9000 winch inside of that bumper. That brings me up to 6600 lbs. I have weighed it myself. There is an additional issue this week, being that there is a complete new engine in the rear of the pathfinder so it has to weigh well over 7000lbs, being pulled by a 4300lb empty bed pickup. I was towing it through the mountains on a curvy road and the rear truck (Pathfinder), kept pushing my F250 through every turn. It was very stressful. When I got it home, I had to back it through a narrow gate up a very steep driveway with an empty bed light weight pickup. I tried several times and finally, I hooked up the Durango to it and I just drove it exactly where it needed to go in the yard with ease.
The tires had decent tread on them. The truck has nice alloy wheels all around. Has factory tow package that was optional too.
BE SURE TO CHECK OUT NADA ON THEIR SITE. THIS RIG EXACTLY AS IT SITS SHOWS $3750 ROUGH AND $4859 AVERAGE BOOK...
I am not trying to get rich. I love this truck, but life is pushing and pulling on my wallet these days. I have to sell my baby, you will love it...
That's it. No shipping.

Subaru Impreza WRX, Dodge Charger police car from 'Baby Driver' are for sale
Mon, Aug 21 2017Fans of " Baby Driver," now is your chance to own some seriously cool bits of movie memorabilia. Allpro Subaru is currently selling two of the cars from the film. The first is one of the red Subaru Impreza WRXs that were used for some of the film's signature stunts, which made the red rally sedan the de facto hero car of the movie. There were a number of stunt cars used to represent the hero car, including a modified WRX and an STI with a WRX wing. This particular one, a 2006 model, is a little more interesting, as it was the one that was converted to rear-drive to make it easier to complete stunts with it. According to the description, it also has a turbocharger from a 2004 STI to make more power, which fits what stunt driver Jeremy Fry told us. The description reveals other interesting tidbits. The car does have a clean title and has 158,000 miles on it. Obviously some of those miles were a bit rough, and the description notes that the stunt driving has led to some cosmetic defects. The AutoCheck vehicle history report reveals more. Apparently this Impreza WRX led a rough life before filming, as it had four mild to moderate crashes reported. It also appears that it will need the Takata airbag replaced. But on the plus side, this car is a unique piece of car and film history, and its rear-drive layout should make it interesting to drive. On top of that, it also has a leather interior that appears to be in good shape. View 5 Photos You'd better have a healthy bank account before trying to buy this WRX. As of writing, the bidding has reached $40,300. If that's too pricey, though, Allpro Subaru has yet another car from the movie. It's a 2011 Dodge Charger police car in Atlanta, Ga. police livery, complete with a V8. It's also pretty thoroughly wrecked, though the description says that it is drivable. Based on the bullet holes in the windshield, the Charger appears to be the one used in the (mild spoiler alert) final showdown between Baby and Buddy. But because this car is much less famous and in far worse shape, it's also much cheaper. Bidding has only reached $3,000 at the time of writing.

Race Recap: Rolex 24 at Daytona was fast and feisty
Mon, Jan 26 2015Let the record show that victory at the 2015 Rolex 24 at Daytona went to the No. 02 Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates Target/Ford EcoBoost Riley DP driven by Verizon IndyCar drivers Scott Dixon and Tony Kanaan and NASCAR drivers Jamie McMurray and Kyle Larson. The winner did 740 laps to cover 2,634.3 miles in 24 hours and 57.667 seconds. That's a statement to this year's pace in spite of 18 cautions, two more than last year: the Michael Shank Racing Ligier got pole with a time of 1:39.194, slower than last year's pole time of 1:38.270; however, the winning car last year only did 695 laps. The fight for top honors was shaved to a four-car battle over the first third of the event. The No. 02 Ganassi car took the lead on the first lap, swapping it well into the night with the No. 01 Ganassi car, the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Corvette DP, and the defending champion No. 5 Action Express Corvette DP, all of them staying within about 20 seconds of one another. The Action Express car had a fuel connector come loose and lost three laps getting towed back to the pits to have it reattached, but was back in the lead 18 hours in. The No. 01 Ganassi car dropped out with recurring clutch problems 22 hours in, retiring not long after. A race-within-the-race is where the concluding action happened, a seven minute, 30-second dash from the end of the last caution to the checkered flag. During the penultimate pit stops with an hour to go, Dixon was in second place followed Jordan Taylor in the Wayne Taylor Racing DP into the pits but beat him out, taking the lead. The Action Express car was in third. In the last pit stops of the race, Dixon gained even more time, getting a four-second advantage over Taylor. Then a full-course caution came out twenty minutes before the finish when a Prototype Challenge car hit the wall and caught fire, bunching up the field. That closed the pits, but the Wayne Taylor Racing car had to pit during that yellow because of a miscalculation of driver time. No driver can be behind the wheel for more than four hours in a six-hour period but Jordan Taylor was going to go over, so he came in to swap out for brother Ricky. That cost the team any chance of second place, since they took an additional drive-through penalty for entering closed pits. When the track went green again, Sebastien Bourdais in the Action Express car stayed all over Dixon for the final five laps but couldn't get around him.
2015 Dodge Charger shows off its new look in New York [w/videos]
Thu, 17 Apr 2014With a new look inspired largely by the Dart compact, the 2015 Dodge Charger made its New York Auto Show debut today. Along with the interior and exterior changes, an eight-speed automatic becomes standard across the range.
What hasn't changed is the choice of engines under the Charger's long hood. A 3.7-liter V6 serves as the base mill, and can be had in both rear- and all-wheel-drive varieties, while the 5.7-liter V8 is an optional item and can be had in rear-drive only. Outputs are also carried over from last year, with 292 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque for the six-pot, while the Hemi V8 delivers 370 hp and 395 lb-ft of torque.
The new exterior treatment is a fairly large departure from the styling tone set by the Charger since its reintroduction to the US market in 2006. The blacked-out, crosshair grille and new headlamps are the biggest changes for 2015, though there are other, less immediately noticeable updates, such as the more rounded "Racetrack" taillamps that, like the front fascia, draw some inspiration from the Dart.
