I liked it because its got cloth seats instead of the pleather seats they sometimes use. The cloth seats are way more comfortable and way more durable than the "fancy" seats they put in the limited models. Never hot in the summer, never cold in the winter, and no rips, tears, burns or anything else. The interior is as good as the exterior. My son loves the Durango because he says its so clearly made for a man to drive. My wife doesn't like it for the same reason.
Anyway, its in PERFECT condition, and looks like its brand new. It doesn't even have brake dust baked in to the front alloys. It literally looks like a 5 year old brand-new car with 67,000 miles on it. It has the AM/FM, CD player with Sirius Satellite built in (works great, yes, I am a subscriber). The thing has bluetooth built-in from the factory too, but the proprietary "UConnect" system Chrysler installs in its vehicles is not as good as some of the other systems, so I had a Parrot 9100 installed in addition. The Parrot is the gold standard for bluetooth systems, so it made sense to add it to the car since it has streaming technology built in and the factory bluetooth only works with the phone. It has bucket seats up front, a triple folding seat in the middle row and a fold-down third row as well. Seats 7 comfortably, and 8 is fine too, though three in the back row gets a little tight.
The thing runs and drives great, has buckets of power when necessary, and is completely utilitarian. The tires and brakes are like new, and it has a nice Draw-Tight hitch system installed. With 355 horses running, it can pull a house if you want it to. It does not have a sunroof. That's another reason why I liked the car. I hate sunroofs.
Unfortunately, because my wife doesn't like the car, I've got to sell it because I just can't afford to keep both the Durango and my other car at the same time, and my other car has a very strong emotional tie to it.
There's not a whole lot of room in the price though, so don't bother making low offers. I need to get very close to what I'm asking because that's what I still owe on the car. The good news is, the price I'm asking is well under retail anyway, so you won't find another '08 HEMI with low miles any cheaper, and absolutely not in the kind of fantastic condition my car is in. And oh by the way, its also got an extended warranty on it, which I think is able to be assigned to a new owner. I think its got about 4 more years on the warranty!

1942 Dodge Carryall from WWII featured on 'Jay Leno's Garage'
Thu, Dec 28 2017On this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, Leno takes a look at a unique Dodge Carryall, both in its past and present states. The Carryall is a 1942 model restored and modified by Winslow Bent at Legacy Classic Trucks in Wyoming. According to Bent, the truck spent time in Tunisia during World War II. Obviously it's no longer a military vehicle, but Bent explains that he and his crew built the truck to still be extremely durable, since its new owner wanted a support vehicle for classic car rallies around the world and in remote locations. To reach this end, the Carryall's original inline-six has been replaced with an intercooled Cummins 4BT turbocharged diesel four-cylinder. Bent modified the engine to make less power than it could in order to make the engine understressed and longer lasting. In total, it makes only 130 horsepower, but 380 pound-feet of torque. It also features a boxed frame and heavy duty axles. It's plenty practical, too, with a large roof rack, winch, and even an on-board welding setup. But it's not all hardcore upgrades, since it also has air conditioning. Check out all the other cool details and listen to Leno and Bent geek out over leaf springs and intakes in the video above.

FCA recalls 1.1 million vehicles worldwide due to confusing shifter
Fri, Apr 22 2016Fiat Chrysler is recalling 1.1 million vehicles worldwide to address the problematic shifter used on cars with eight-speed automatic transmissions. The issue is that the console-mounted shifter acts like a rocker switch and always returns to the middle position after moved. This has been deemed confusing to drivers – confusing enough to cause some to exit their vehicles without first selecting Park and leading to the car rolling away. FCA says 41 injuries are related to the shifter problem, and no evidence of equipment failure has been found. The company will enhance warning chimes and alter the shift strategy, meaning alert messages will be displayed in case the driver door is opened while the engine is running. With the door open, the transmission will prevent the car from moving even if Park is not selected. The affected vehicles are certain model-year 2012–2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 sedans, as well as model-year 2014–2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs, an estimated 811,586 US vehicles in total. The recall also affects 52,144 vehicles in Canada, 16,805 in Mexico, and 248,667 vehicles elsewhere. The shifter is used with ZF-designed and ZF-built eight-speed automatic; Audi uses a similar shifter setup in some of its vehicles, including the current-generation, which predated Chrysler's use of it. Chrysler uses a different, a rotating-dial-type shifter on eight-speed-equipped Rams. The company moved away from the problem shifter design in 2015 for the Charger and 300, and the Grand Cherokee's shift lever was modified for 2016. Owners of affected vehicles will be notified of the recall when service is available. Fiat Chrysler urges customers to follow the instructions in the vehicle's owner's manual in the meantime.
