A friend is leaving town (and the country) and has offered his 2000 Dodge Durango with 77,000 miles to me for $11,000. It seems to be in very good condition ... a fews dings and scratches but it does have a killer sound system (my 15 year old son is sold on that point alone).
Does anyone have experience with the Dodge Durango? We currently have a 1995 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban with 150,000++ miles. With three kids and lot's of stuff to tow the Suburban has been great, but the 10-13 mpg is getting kind of old ... and so is the rest of the vehicle. The Durango seems a bit small ... but compared to a Suburban K2500 most rigs seem small. Any opinions? Thanks Eddie |

I'm not sure the Durango gets much better milage. They are notorious for sucking fuel. We had a '96 Suburban that got 15MPG with the packasport on top. Our newer '03 Sububan gets exactly the same. Once you've had a suburban......how can you downsize? Especially with the kids and all the stuff.
I'd look at another Suburban, oh, that is what we did! |
