Replying to: albook (Aug 30, 2007 12:37 pm) Ummmm... yes. Let me help you out by restating one important fact in my post: I have yet to have someone in ours who did NOT comment how luxurious it is. Comfort is terrible. That's obviously going to vary by person. As I said, we find it more comfortable than our Pilot. And after a 180 mile roundtrip in my Accord 2 days ago, I can tell you the Pac is much more comfortable than that, too (yeah, i know, not the same class, but those are the 2 commuter cars in my driveway right now, so its my comparison). I'm not sure why you think this one is going to blow the Pac out of the water when we haven't even seen it yet. Yeah, maybe I shouldn't be so judgemental about it either, but so far, based on power, efficiency, and appearance, its not winning me over from my Pac. Any one looking at this versus the Buick Enclave will turn their noses up after just sitting inisde this! An Enclave equipped similarly to my Pac would cost me about $10k more than I paid. So, yeah, I sure HOPE it would be a step up! |

Chrysler badly needs some fuel efficient engines. We need diesels... bad. Put a 30-35mpg diesel in this thing and it might be a winner. As is, it's another loser. Eagerly awaiting the Tiguan and its 2.0 TDI. |

The Dodge Journey will almost certainly get a real world-class powertrain - by 2012. Unfortunately the new automated-manual transmissions with dual clutches won't be available until 2009, after the Journey starts up, and it'll go into minivans first or so we're told. Likewise the brand new, world class engines, the Phoenix engines, will start up around 2009. And then there are the reputed Chrysler diesels under way - you heard me! - but who knows when those will be made, if at all? More 2009 Dodge Journey info and of course Espanol - el crossover Dodge Journey 2009.

The Journey is now on the Dodge website, although not too much real detail like pricing or MPG ratings, etc. And no conversation here since October? Journey's features seem to be pretty good; optional 7 seats, optional rear view camera, three engine choices, standard ESP, etc.. Any idea when it will hit the showrooms?

Replying to: microrepair (Jan 28, 2008 6:58 pm) I'll tell you what happened. I guess interest levels are low. 16 messages? This forum's been up since I think January of last year. Maybe December '06! I think people are turned off that it seems a bit too samll to compete with the likes of Highlander and Pilot. |

Replying to: qbrozen (Aug 28, 2007 8:12 am) This may lose hp, but no doubt it's quicker han the Pacific- which has wieght issues. Probably the same size inside- despite being a foot shorter (I'm guestimating).

Replying to: bobw3 (Oct 06, 2007 3:48 pm) Of course not. If the roomers are true, this will probably be a foot shorter- so yes, the interior is smaller. |
