"Traded in a Yukon XL for this vehicle, brand new. Love it. Only issue is I'm leary about it hydroplaning on wet roads or slushy roads. I didn't notice that with my Yukon, but the Yukon was a lot heavier vehicle. Interior of ours has chrome trim, which makes it blinding when the sun hits it just right. I usually keep a small towel in inside during summer months to cover this and stop the problem. Overall, a great vehicle. Seats 7, plenty of storage room and tons of leg room in the 2nd row seats. Great gas mileage. We purchased this through Nemaha Valley Motors in Seneca, KS and they go above and beyond to get you the vehicle in the color and options you want!"

"Our 3rd durango. 04,09, now 2012. THIS IS THE BEST ONE YET. Its just the right size for our family of 5. we need the AWD for our snow trips (we just wave at the chain check folks). the v6 has plenty of power, 22mpg. The CREW is a good balance between features and cost. (didnt need the front radar and chrome mirrors). We really like the Italian inspired interior. it turns out Daimler mercedes engineered the running gear (nice job). (I think its the "G" series), then Fiat designed the interior. We got the 2nd row bucket seats so its a 6 seater (recommend). The only reason for the Hemi would be to tow something larger than a jet-ski, the new vvt V6 does a good job and gets way better mileage. Hold out for the 2014 with 8-speed transmission. it will get at least 3mpg better."

"Brought car jan 2012.first problems that came up vibratios at high speed,noise in dash.went back a couple of times to get it right.Then the right side window got stuck down three seperate times.the last problems are on going and Chrysler cant fix the problem.It involves the auto wipers and headlights.The wiper are supposed to come on when it rains and automatticaly adjust the speed well they stay on inermediatemost of the time have to switch to regular wiper to work.The auto headlights are supposed to switch to hight beams in dark areas and back to regular when a car approaches. the high beams work when they feel like working and sometimes stay on blinding the on coming cars.put more milage on this vheicle going back to the dealer all the time then driving it.Always brought chrysler or dodge but now looking at other companys"

"Traded in my Lexus Rx300 for the 2013 Citadel AWD w/ the V8 motor. I've only had it for a week now but I love it! I had read all of the consumer and professional reviews and did my research on this vehicle. I drove a few other suv's in this same class as well. I'm more than happy with our choice. The vehicle is solid and the ride is perfect...not too hard like a truck but not too soft either! The gas milage could stand to be a little better...I've been averaging about 16-18 mpg CITY which is right a round the reported numbers. I thought the V6 was a little underpowered for the size/weight of the vehicle and could tell during the test drive...although for driving in the city and back and forth to the store I think the V6 would be fine. I love the "park-assist" function (back-up camera). It makes backing sooo easy AND safe. All of the safety features are great. The blind spot monitor is unique and a nice feature as well. The vehicle seems to be well made but I can't speak to reliability at this 1week mark. I would however recommend this vehicle and would purchase again."

"1997-2003 the Dodge Durango was a hideous, unreliable waste of money. 2004-2013 Dodge really started doing well in its designs. After 03 they completely redesigned the Durango in 2004 to a big, beautiful, reliable SUV. It was basically the Chrysler Aspen with different headlight and taillight shapes. In 2011 the Durango was redesigned to resemble the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. I never see a Durango after the year of 2003 that is not an amazingly shiny, taken care of suv. Their real head turners, as they always will be."
