Thanks HIS, hey by chance did you tune her's haha?
Anyone have experience with Durango's?

It's a ~25gal tank. I can go over a week without filling up, commuting 70 miles daily.
I didn't have to adjust my driver seat to fit the rear facing car seat. Was surprised at that considering how big that car seat is.
Gotcha man. They take the phones away during the week, so, he is only around on the weekends. So far, he is hanging in there.
I have a 2016 R/T.
Well, that is GREAT gas mileage. She is getting between 420-600 miles per tank, or, anywhere from 17 MPG up to 24 MPG. With an R/T, especially with an AWD, I don't think that is very realistic. Even with feathering the hell out of it, that is phenomenal gas mileage for this truck. It is rated @ 14/22. Definitely possible, but, maybe slightly exaggerated.
Then again, I didn't buy it for the MPG's, haha.
Ha ha! Nah...though it has crossed my mind.
My vote goes towards a 4Runner. Because resale value, quality, and Toyota.
If FCA has to buy your Jeep back because it's so messed up, why trust them again with another purchase?

I have one of those as well. The Durango is definitely more plush, but if long term resale value is something that you need to look at depending on how long you want to keep it, then the 4runner is fantastic as well. The issue is that it isn't as user friendly for the 3rd row if you have child seats since there is no middle captains chair option.
I recently got my wife a 2011 AWD 5.7 Citadel as a mommy mobile. She loves it. It's plush with the heated/cooled seats, heated steering wheel, DVD player with bluetooth headphones for the kids.
Has plenty of power and handles good. Interior is well designed and doesn't come off as cheap. I honestly enjoy driving it. I would consider it our luxury vehicle lol.
I purchased it with 100k miles on it. Hoping it lasts. Outside of the radiator fan making some noise (ended up being water pump pulley, which went shortly after posting this), it has been solid. I've only had it for a few thousand miles though.
Water pump and battery thus far. Both looked stock when I pulled them.
If you get a used one just make sure all the recall work has been done.

Basically, Ford product is meh, and I refuse to buy a GM.
I don't think you will regret the Durango. We were seriously considering it. We were gonna order a 18 R/T AWD in b5 blue (can't believe they finally offer it on an SUV), but ultimately realized we don't need a big 3 row SUV. We ended up with a Grand Cherokee Altitude 4x4. No regrets.
Well I got one, I did a lease for 3 years.
What color? Options?
Fully loaded, every option! Got 8K off. I just realized I need to shift some stuff in the garage to fit it in haha but that's what happens when you go from JK 2 door jeep to a full size SUV.
