Yes, we're talking about it. However, won't be buying it.

I'll give the add credit, I never knew that Durango was gone for two years. Beyond that it probably makes me want to buy one less, not that I ever wanted one in the first place.

IMO, no dumber than Porsche portraying the GT3 as a grocery getter...

Its now a unibody suv as opposed to the old body on truck frame....thus, more refined. I saw a bunch of them last week as part of the orlando rental fleet. It looks nice, but hardly like it used to. I also didn't see a place to put the tow hitch without cutting the bumpers up. Odd.

I detest Chrysler products for the most part. Mopar hater to the core.

But I was at Deception Pass State Park here in WA today, and I saw a new Durango on the road. Its tough looking machine.

+1 = but ended up getting a Jeep Grand Cherokee as a company car.

It's great. It cost less than comparable cars in the class. It gets better gas mileage (around 22 combined - up to 25/26 on the highway)

It rides better than any other in the class that I drove.

The interior is much nicer than others in the price range.

With some of the savings - I did buy the extended warranty.

In all it's glory.

Video: Dodge Durango catches fire during D.C. Cherry Blossom Parade while on float-pulling duty — Autoblog

Quote:
After the jump is video of a spanking-new 2011 Dodge Durango Citadel as it sat in the middle of the parade route, spouting flames from the hood. A local NBC affiliate reports that the newly designed SUV began to spew black smoke while towing a float on the parade route. After the hood was propped up the black smoke turned into a full-on car-b-que that engulfed the engine bay in flames. The local fire department, which was likely already participating in the parade, later came and doused the blaze, but the incident prolonged the parade by about 15 minutes.

I like how it's parked facing the wrong way at the end.
