POST PICTURES OF YOUR DURANGO

[Unholy707]

It’s most likely best to heck, never buy a car sight unseen.

The dealer doesn't even have a photo of the Durango I just bought, so I can only include the press photo they used in their ad. It's a '19 GT AWD Plus with 90,000 on it.

Supposedly it looks like this. Or at least used to.

I can't even remember the last time I saw a vehicle before buying it. Although, usually there has been photos of it to look at.

 

[Jimmy N.]

Okay, now I've seen photos of the Durango I bought. And I like what I see.

Don’t get it dirty! Congrats, which engine does it have?

 

[Jimmy N.]

It'll get its Vice White dirty alright.

The whole idea with this V6 GT AWD Plus is to be more of a beater vehicle than the Challenger GT AWD (which I've taken a surprising amount of liking to). And for about half the price.

Besides, it'll be fun to have a Durango and actually drive it - which never happened with the other one.

Looks really clean! Outside anyway

Vice white? Are you sure it’s not knuckle white?

 

[Jimmy N.]

It's clean inside, too, from the looks of it.


And according to the Monroney and build sheet, it's Vice White. A $600 option.
It's probably the same color as what's called Pearl White on Rams.

This is like Deja Vu all over again.

Just with better looking wheels, no sunroof, and missing a couple of cylinders.

classic cruising behind the new ...

Still trying to get used to that this high mileage '19 puts a smile on my face every time I see it, which the '23 never did.

What is different?

 

[Jimmy N.]

What is different?

I'm not sure.

Part of it could be that the '23 couldn't be ordered the way I wanted it (as a gray Base, without a sunroof and third seats), and that it took some nine months to finally get it.

This '19 also has the third seat (not yet removed) and lots of options I could do without, but for a 90K-plus mile car it's really clean. Also, I prefer the front end look of the '19.

And it's not that I prefer the V6, but I'm fine with it. Much like I don't mind it in the Challenger GT AWD. Naturally the 'Cat is a lot more fun to drive, but that one can't be used during the winter months. Then the AWDs rule.

I always smile when I drive my Diamond Black ‘23 SRT that is loaded with everything, what a great machine, very comfy plus crazy easy to drive. I don’t get to drive it much which makes it even more special. Got to drive it once this past week, to a funeral! But this last weekend I was able to drive the Hellcat a few times, thanks to the good weather. This coming weekend will be even better. Some of my weekend visitors expected this coming weekend get their first rides in both of my beasts.

I might have smiled when driving the '23, but I never did.

Other than onto the trailer, off the trailer and onto the lift, then into the garage. And eventually back onto the trailer.

I was a FORD guy, having owned nine V8 Mustangs over the years. Then I got hooked on AWD.

It started with a stock 365 hp '14 Taurus SHO AWD that turned 13.7@101, just launch and go.
Then came a 325 hp V6 twin turbo '17 AWD Fusion Sport that ran 13.8@98, right off the showroom floor.
After that I went import with a'19 KIA Stinger GT AWD that went 13.1@107, with zero mods.

And now my 100% bone stock Durango 392 made a 13.0@104 run. And the 392 weighs 1,200 lbs more than the Stinger GT!

Part of me wishes that I had put at least 500 miles on the '23 and been able to stomp on it once. As it turned out it didn't get a single mile added to the odometer.

Then again, it likely would've felt about the same as the Trackhawk so I probably didn't miss much.
