"My new 2012 Dodge Durango Crew is the best overall vehicle I've owned (even better than my late model Yukon). It is a pleasure to drive. Handling and cornering are excellent. The highway ride is more like a luxury sedan than an SUV. Definitely the quietest, smoothest SUV I've ever driven (and I testdrove dozens). The interior is a masterpiece. Every thing fits together perfectly, and the quality resembles Audi interiors. The seats are super comfortable and supportive, and even the third row is plenty roomy for me and I'm 6 ft. All of the seat configurations, user-friendly dash layout, and gigantic in-floor storage area behind the third row make the Durango's interior design second to none. The 3.6 Pentatar V6 provides plenty of power and runs a 0-60 time less than a second behind my '09 Tahoe's 5.3L V8. I average about 20 mpg in town, and 26 mpg on the highway--unbelieveable for a 5,000lbs SUV! The all-wheel drive system provides excellent traction on snow and ice. I just had an oppI paid just over $33k for my new Durango Crew equipped with cloth seats, sunroof, garmin navigation, back-up camera, power liftgate, automatic headlights, back-up sensors, full roof rack, AWD, and power folding third row headrests to name a few things. I would have had to pay at least 5K more to get a comparably equipped Traverse (the other vehicle I most seriously considered). I cannot think of one negative thing about this vehicle. Anyone in the market for a luxurious, practical, remarkably fuel efficient, and well-priced full-size SUV should definitely testdrive the Durango."

"Dodge has hit it right on with this vehicle. It looks great from all angles. Interior is very nice. It feels solid and is very comfortable and quiet. The build quality and materials are very good. I find the V6 to have very good power. I like the fact that the vehicle is rear drive and with the towing package tows up to 6200 lbs. This is my first Dodge and so far is great."

"I truly love this vehichle. Having owned Suburban's for years and my lasy cross over was the Traverse. The Citadel is a superb value and has great features and comfort. I did add the Hemi option as I work from home. Gas mileage is not so good in the city but makes up for it on the highway. Get the v6 if you drive a lot. I love the extra power! Go get one. Dont buy from Dadeland Dodge though. Thieves with poor service and a bad attitude. Go to Unversity Dodge in Davie."

"Excellent all around vehicle in all areas. I would definatelly recommend; but with the hemi v8 instead of V6. Car is very heavy; therefore performs better with the v8."
