2007 Dodge Durango SXT review from North America
"If you need a big car.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, however I only drive 6000 miles/year. The Dodge was purchased new (10 miles) and has 2500K at present.
General comments?
The 2007 Durango 4x4 is my first new car purchased with only 10 miles on it.
Pros:
Overall it is a great vehicle for the money I paid. Its strengths include size, a quiet interior, and superior handling during inclement weather. The lifetime warranty was a clincher, so I traded my fully loaded 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee for the new Dodge.
Cons:
From the outside, the redesigned front-end for 2007 makes this a sharp-looking SUV. However take a sit inside and you'll be faced with CHEAP-looking gray textured plastic. I've read other complaints on this forum about the interior plastic on earlier Durango models, and am somewhat disappointed Dodge did nothing to upgrade interior material choice for 2007.
The 2000 Jeep I traded cornered much better. I expected the 2007 Dodge to ride at least as nice as both my previous Jeeps, but it's a step down.
