Dodge is advertising a $1500.00 rebate on durangos with 5.9 and 4x2.


Question is, dose this apply to 4x4 also or only 4x2
I called dodge and they said its a regional rebate and they have no info other than the std. $1000 rebate

Durango placed on "Safest" list! by mrstiffy

Erie Insurance lists the safest cars in its experience. Their criteria are listed at


http://www.erie-insurance.com/carguide/2000cars2.html#Eight tough standards


and include good records for death, injury, repair, and safety features as well as laboratory test results.


Durango is shown on their "preferred" list at:




http://www.erie-insurance.com/carguide/2000cars.html#Mid-range sport utility vehicles




This information may be useful to those concerned about Durango's safety based only on laboratory crash test results.

5.9 vs 4.7 by slclark3

 Just bought a new Durango with 4.7. It felt stronger than the 5.9 I drove plus hopefully will be better on gas. Both vehicles had the 3.92 rear gear. Has any one else made a comparison?

No oil leaks here... by rcarboni

fredly,


You didn't mention what engine was in the Durango you looked at, but I have the 5.9 and replaced my valve covers with Mopar performance aluminum covers. When I did, I noticed that the stock gaskets are very good quality with reinforced rubber, and are not prone to leaking. Sounds like it might be a quality control lapse and someone forgot to torque them down properly.


others,


For info on A/C, sunroofs, etc., you might want to try the Durango Owners Forum. There is a good FAQ page on all things Durango, and lots of owners to query:

Engine break-in by jbecker5
May 15, 2000 (3:11 am)

I just bought a Durango (5.9L, 3.92) and was surprised to see that the recommended engine break-in period was only 300 miles. If I recall from a new vehicle purchase about 10 years ago,
this number was more like 1500. With the Durango, I plan to tow a 3500lb. boat in mountainous areas, and wonder what others know about breaking in the new engine. Any suggestions?

ro5 (#39): One thing that helps significantly is putting a good coat of wax on the vehicle before going on the trip. That way, any bug "stuff" that gets on the car, really only gets on the wax. It is also much easier to remove!

Rebate doesnt apply? by donm4

  I'm currently negotiating a lease and my salesman says the 1000$ rebate doesnt apply with the special chrysler lease plan he's using(the best lease plan available)
 Has anyone heard of this? Does he benefit?
 Thanks
