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 Durango gets the Blacktop treatment
Sat, 09 Aug 2014The Dodge Durango is getting a meaner, more aggressive look as it becomes the latest model from the brand to wear the Blacktop Appearance Package. The upgrades are strictly cosmetic, but they lend the SUV a more assertive demeanor that some buyers like.
Available on the SXT, Limited and R/T (shown above) models, all Blacktop Durangos get black 20-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bod- color fascia and gloss black trim. The grille surround, air dam, mirrors and headlight surrounds all get the inky treatment, as well. The improvements add $1,590 to the cost of the SXT. They come to $1,990 on the Limited but also include HID headlights with LED running lights and a leather interior. Finally, R/T buyers only need to pay $295 for the upgrades. The Blacktop Durango hits showrooms this October.
If you're already in the market for a Durango but want a dash more style with no added performance, the Blacktop might not be a bad way to go. It certainly gives the SUV a bit more edge than it has in stock form. Scroll down to read the full release.
Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
