You know, I should iave remembered, but I think the 2.4 was the engine on our 01 PT. That car could not get out of its own way and yes, the mpg was less than stellar for a car that size. Pretty good car otherwise. Put 60k on it and was in the shop once for a recall. Very comfortable interior and very functional with the fold down and pull out seats. If I knew I could get a steady 18 in town with a Journey and the 3.5, you could sign me up today!

The 2.4 engine in your PT is not the same engine. This new "World Engine" is crap that was designed by Hyndia, KIA and D. Chrysler. It's a real winner and deserves a fickel finger of fait award. I would see if a dealer would let you test drive one and see what you think.

Too scared to test drive. I might like it too much or rationalize the mpg on the V-6 and drive off the lot with one! We're at least a year away from a new car, unfortunately. Although looking on the Dodge website it looks like I would qualify for the loyalty rebate since I currently have a Ram...Hmm...

My total cost out the door for my Journey was just over $20,000.00. I purchased the SRT V6 with the 3rd row seating. I went down to look at the one advertised for $13,888.00 but when I test drove it I found out it was the 4 cylinder and oh boy was it gutless! The price was nice if you don't want any power. It did have a lot of added options. I upgraded to the V6 and very happy with it. The transmission switches gears I feel prematurely when taking off as a slow speed. I get about 18 MPG. I don't take off fast but I do have a lead foot on the hwy. I now gas is a concern for many and was for me also but I think overall for a small SUV it does well on gas you just can't be the first one off the starting line.

MY R/T Finally Arrived by rockfsh32

My purchase price after all incentives was a little over $27,000. This was about $2,000 less than when I initially placed my order in December '08. I ordered a FWD R/T with just about everything (no navigation, satellite TV, towing, or smoking).
So far I love it! None of the issues others have mentioned on the various feedback sites. Maybe I'm the beneficiary of waiting to have mine built this past January after the shut-downs. They had ample time to straighten out some of the early first year issues.
So far, so good!

Dodge Journey SXT FWD by knowit2

We bought the SXT. Standard SXT with 7 seat package.
We bought for 18,910 (without TTL before trade with destination) with financing at 2.9% for 4 years.
I had them give us an extra $750 for our trade in, a 9 yr old GMC Safari.
 
Overall we are pleased. The SXT really seams loaded, dual sided ac/heat control, back ac/heater control, can coolers, dual exhaust, 3.5L with 6 speed tranny. If you want a CUV that you don't ever see around this is one for you.

Dodge Journey SXT FWD purchase by antithesis

The wife and I just bought an SXT FWD with the 3rd row option, Dual temperature ac/heater. remote start and some other little add ons. The MSRP was about $26,300 with black exterior and the dark interior with slate grey. It was listed in the newspaper for 16k and we got it for that price. We traded in our 2004 Murano for 12k too.
We like the vehicle. We loaded it up with 3 adults and 2 kids and got about 24 mpg on a 300 mile roadtrip, which was hard to get in the Murano.
Its not perfect but at the price it was totally worth it.

Know a Dodge dealer that wants to cut a deal on a 2009 Journey? by soldier148

I see from these posts that some people have scored pretty big discounts off MSRP on Journeys. One post details an SXT w/ 3rd row, (MSRP $26,300) selling for $16K. Where can I get one at that price?
 
Desire a 2009 SXT or RT with 3rd row option. With the 2010 model year coming fast, l am looking for a dealer that will offer a strong price break to move an 09 off the lot. I am in Texas but would consider working with an out of state dealer.

2010 Journey Discounts by stevefoy

Looking at 2010 Journey's and I'm not seeing very big discounts. I was hoping to get $1500 rebate plus another $1500 off from the dealer. It's not happening. Dealer offering $1000 discounts (in addition to $1500 rebate) off a R/T model which has a $30,000 sticker. Curious what other people are seeing.
