| Just bought '05 Durrango SLT - Hemi, Leather,Boards,rear AC, most options - has 20,000 miles was a fleet car - paid $24,000 and got Kelly Blue Book Trade-In for my '02 Mountaineer - only had it 2 days but love the truck - suprised how smooth riding it easy, very easy to drive , very quiet around town a little wind noise at 80 mph - Love the Hemi - pulls out great and passes at 65 without even working the engine- got the dark red (molton red) looks great shined-up - computer say 14 mpg so far - although I could probably do a little better once I get the fun of the hemi out of my system | |
| Just purchased a 2005 Durango Limited fully loaded with every option except 3:92 rear end or Sirius radio. Has Nav, chrome wheels, DVD and all other options. Was an exec car and I got it off the Marshalling lot in Auburn Hills, MI. 16,800 miles. Paid $25,825 with brother's employee price. MSRP was $43,675 (I would never pay that much for any car). It was very well cared for with not a scratch on it inside or out. Have had it for 2 days and love it. Rides great and in my opinion the best out of Trailblazer, Mountaineer and Durango when I drove all 3. Hemi power is great. Computer mileage shows 16.2 right now, will see how it goes (the other two mfg V8s were only 1 MPG higher). | |
| Any truth to the rumor the Daimler/Chrysler will be offering employee pricing on all Dodge vehicles starting July 06, 2005? I'm looking to purchase an '05 Durango SLT and the rebates now are $4,000. Wonder if the employee pricing will be a better deal than the current rebate? | |

I happend by a local Dodge dealer in my area and saw that they had a 2004 SLT brand new, never titled and loaded sitting on their lot. MSRP $39,105. They say they can "Let it go" for $28,000. Good deal or not? (2005's w/similiar options and special pricing still around 33,000) Any advantages or disadvantages to this deal, other than the 2004 its almost 2 years old. Thanks |

Is this a good deal? '05 Durango SLT "G" pkg., heated front seats, Family Value group, towing pkg. MSRP $38,795. They are offering me $14,800 for my trade, a 00 Dakota Quad cab, leaving $23,995 + 9.5% tax & tags for a total of $26,342, less the $3500 rebate for a price of $22,842.03 out the door. They took the Employee Pricing off the table when I offered my trade up and are making it look like they are giving me more for my trade. Is this common practice? Are they still making out from the manufacturer in the Employee Pricing by collecting that rebate and not offering it to me? |

After GM and Ford announced increased rebates on remaining 2005 models so did Chrysler. I saw a ad in the paper saying the all '05 Durango's had a $7,000 rebate. I considered buying one this summer during the employee pricing but they were only discounted about $5,000 total. On Saturday I drove a SXT 4X2 at a local dealer and made him a offer. $10,000 under sticker price. ($7k rebate + $3k dealer discount). They would only reduce it by $8850 which they said was $100 over invoice before rebate. I walked on that great deal. I went home and called a few dealers 200 miles away. I found one that would take my $10K under sticker offer. I did not want to drive 3 hours to get that deal. The next day I found a 4X4 SXT 4.7 Durango at a dealer 45 miles away. He would only go $9k below sticker. 15 minutes after he told me that, his sales manager called me and accepted my offer. I told him I wanted to think about it since my wife and I wanted a 4X2. Today the salesman called me to see if I was still interested. I told him my wife was at work and I could not get a ride to his dealership. He offered to deliver the vehicle to me for free. WHAT A DEAL!!!!!!!! The price I paid is almost 1/3 off. That sounds more like a sale at JC Penney then a sale at a Dodge Dealer. 2005 Durango SXT 4X4 4.7-V8 MSRP $31,875 -$7,000 Dodge Factory Rebate -$3,000 Dealer Discount = $21,875 + $2596.32 tax, license, fees $24,471.32 out the door I live in Central California. The dealer is in a town called Visalia. Surroz Dodge. |
