2018 Dodge Durango SRT - The Ultimate Family Hauler 

It's sad to see all the comments disparaging FCA for product quality. I believe them, so you can be sure it was a huge risk when I decided to get my brand new Durango. But I have to say-- 0 problems minus some infotainment quirks and I am super impressed. In 2 years I've put 60K miles on it and frankly it's performed wonderfully

A lot of posts here claiming FCA products are junk. I’m puzzled, because my mother has a 2013 Durango AWD v6 with about 125k miles and that thing runs great still. I drove it and was surprised at how solid it felt on the road. No vibrations. No noises. Very smooth. We took her Durango on a 3000 mile road trip last year to the Pacific Northwest and this year a 1500 mile trip around Lake Powell and Capital Reef in Utah. It’s been a trusty steed for her and for our family trips. She said it’s only needed normal maintenance.

I'm 6'1" and I sat in the back of my 2019 Durango without a problem. This guy is never happy.

still waiting for the SRT version of the Grand Caravan. LOL

Doug the type of guy to buy a 15 horsepower hypercar

Two corrections: 1) The SRT does have cylinder deactivation. Same as the 5.7. In both the R/T and SRT, this feature can be disabled. Only the Pentastar V6 engine lacks this feature. In the SRT, you configure cylinder deactivation in the Uconnect, unlike the R/T where there is a button. 2) The steering wheel paddle shifters are 100% metal. I know you said they "feel cheap and plastic". That might be true. But they are metal. I've replaced the standard ones with the SRT version. They are definitely metal.

I love the new Intro with the New Redesigned Redline Review Logo

Dodge has always offered it's customers bang for your buck. After the warranty expires, the engine goes bang and you spend all of your bucks repairing it.

I love you’re reviews They are in depth and amazing and They truly help me to get the proper car. Keep up the good work sofyan!

He don’t even mention the best thing about this vehicle and the reason I bought it.This thing is a towing machine! 8700Lbs Tow capacity for a mid Size suv is insane.The next best in its class is 5600lb capacity

I have a stock Infiniti Q60 and I raced an FBO Durango SRT from a dig. I got absolutely demolished! to see a big SUV move that fast with a simple NA setup against my lighter twin turbo car was crazy! These SRT guys weren't messing around when they made these things.

Gas station owners must love customers with these

Thank you so much to do review this car. It means a lot to me for my future buying.

I have to say that FCA is the only (albeit not fully) American brand/organisation that knows how to design a good looking product. The interior and exterior designs are definitely best in Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep models.

The people always say that Dodge is junk... I have a 2014 Dodge charger with 120k miles and the only problem i have so far is the brakes... This eat brakes pads for lunch lol (front ones)

I don't have a family, but I still own a Durango RT. It's fun and practical. I can fit my bicycles in it and I can tow my RV.

Nice looking. I have driven the Durango in the past and liked it a lot. While there are many comments about reliability issues with FCA I suspect the problems are mostly relative to say Toyota. All new cars are far more reliable than they were just 10 years ago.

I swear the new dodge suvs look so nice and they’re fast too 😍

About the current architecture: The WK2 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango debuted the last JOINT venture from the Daimler-Chrysler merger in 2011. This Durango sits on the same architecture as the current MBZ GLS(the GLS did not get it until 2013), and the GC was first to get the architecture prior to the 2012 MBZ ML-Class(2019 GLE-Class). It is common for the uninformed to believe Mercedes "handed-down" Chrysler platforms. It just is not true.

I really wish I could own an FCA product without feeling irresponsible. Some of them are a lot of fun but they are just such a poor investment.

13:03 speedometer freezes LoL.

I love the look of the New Durango, and the interior.!

This man said the DURANGO need a weight reduction I’m trying to understand why would a full size suv that seats 6 people need to be too light he kills me I really don’t like bruh reviews

13:50 I will give you the benefit of a doubt, however, to those who might be inclined, it is never a good idea to be at a complete stop at the end of a highway-speed curve. Limited sight distance, reaction time, weather/road conditions and all that. You understand.

I thought you were 5'9" as you've said in other videos, not 5'7" but I understand. I appreciate this and other videos. Very helpful.

The ending with the guy throwing rocks is hilarious lmao

FCA has invested in solid power trains and great ZF transmissions. The quality is up. I recommend a Durango. I’ve had my Durango for almost three years and never had to take it back from any problem . I can’t say the same for my wife’s Toyota. Thanks for sharing review.

I laughed so hard at the end, while he's standing there with his hand on his hip trying to figure out what to say, the camera guy is just like "I'm just gunna sit here a throw rocks" lol

Your the best thanks for this Mr yan

Waiting on that Hellcat Durango .I keep hearing rumors.

I have a 2018 Durango GT, love the car. I leased it, will buy one after my lease is up if everything goes good.

This guy is always very critical of anything that's not luxury, German or expensive

Good review,highlights all the good and bad of this beautiful SUV,but i still want one.👍👏👌👍👏👌👍👏👌.

Spare tire I believe is outside underneath in back. Love the color looking for one probably with the black stripe kit.

Dont care if you're gay.Youre ylthe 2nd best car reviewer on youtube behind savagegeese

Bro i got so hyped cause that almost looks like a hellcat hood if only one day lmao

Wait the headlights are XENON Low/Halogen High or Full Xenon?

5:25 LMAO Trackcock Hellcock

This is a great vehicle but your family will get annoyed of you stopping for gas every hour.

doug the type of guy to turn into sofyan reviewing a dodge durango srt

Great video! 6:26, Anyone noticed the fps delay in the RPM gauge? It felt like watching a video on an RCA smartphone.

when doing these with the upgraded models, can you please go over the stereo? is it worth the upgrade, etc? thanks

And great review your reviews or all ways awesome

Do you prefer this or the jeep srt? Is handling wise almost the same?

Why do the water pumps go bad every 20k?

This is basically a bigger version of the Grand Cherokee SRT. Would love to upgrade from my V8 Cherokee next time to this. Great vehicle.

Awesome review

The 2018 Dodge Durango it's alright right, I can't wait for your next video.

Not bad looking. It is very much a specialty car because no many families will need this kind of HP. I needed a family car and decided on the 2018 Explorer Limited. I really enjoy the styling and the 290 HP and 310 TQ is not bad on the ecoboost 4 cylinder.

Don't have srt money but I have the gt with the captains chairs in the 2nd row and I love it

Nice video, love it... but what are they waiting on to put a hellcat motor in there

Got to love the plates...

I don’t understand the hate for FCA on the quality side. My Alfa Romeo Stelvio is flawless. Brother’s Grand Cherokee is flawless.

Thumbnail made me think this was in GTA V 😂

USE IT BEFORE REVIEWING IT.. EXAMPLE...RED STRAP PULL TO THE 3RD ROW...

My favorite suv

Alex is gonna want to fight Sofyan after watching this review!

Man, how many videos did Sofyan film out in Oregon?

Love the design

It gets about the same mpg as the suburban so why not ?

Such a beautiful color.

When are you going to do a review on the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado

There are the srt Cherokee and the srt Durango, and then there are the other suvs. If I was forced to have one it would be basically Mopar or no car. Always Dodge.

I can’t wait to get one

Está chingona la durango 🥰🥰

Rumor has it that they will be taking the Durango back to its roots of being a body on frame SUV "truck" rather than a large crossover in 2021. It's sad they are waiting that long but if they can basically make a RAM 1500 with a full length body and 3 row seating I think it would be a major hit considering the competition. Besides being the only ones to probably offer a high real world MPG V6 (no turbocharged bs) along side the world famous 5.7 Hemi, as it would share a lot of RAM 1500 tooling. That would be the end all for SUV's if they could make the thing tow similar numbers to the RAM and make it the true ultimate family hauler. Also adopting the RAM's air suspension, 12 inch touch, ludicrous amounts of storage, and maybe even the etorque system if it proves a success. That segment of the market is surprisingly lucrative, as I see Yukons, Tahoes/Suburbans, Escalades, Expeditions and Navigators all over the damn place, hell I'd say I see more of the body on frame SUV's than I do the Unibody SUV's.

Is it really worth building a high performance SUV? How many do they sell?

But the Cherokee has less cargo space and one row less of seats. The Durango is fun yet more practical

I wonder if they will supercharge the Durango

I heard the Bugatti Chiron ss will have a whopping 17 hp. Made my jaw drop.

Beautiful car. Only $400/ a month. 😂

No spare tire?? Its under the back

How’s the move back to Home going? Philippines? Vietnam?

When Michael Mayer’s is in your rear view mirror and you don’t notice 😱🤣 6:07

I’ve wanted to see a Durango/ GLS comparison since this generation Durango came out in 2012. I’ve asked a few reviewers. Is is forbidden?

sooooooo whats the difference between this and the jeep

In the video you said there is no spare tyre.. I think I saw underneath the car between the two exhaust tips🧐

You sure it doesn’t have cylinder deactivation? Isn’t it available on passenger cars with same engine?

yeah, i mean, the car feels durable, but reliability matters here and Dogde vehicles aren't for the long term use

The ending... my favorite part... Deep Thoughts..... Elevation Brain Funk!

What they NEED TO DO is reduce parasitic drag. Which can be done very easy. Once they do it will get better MPG and more power to the ground. As in requards to exhaust sound. ANY vehicle can be modified to have a louder exhaust sound.

It’s funny when you rev the engine or accelerate, because my captions tell me there’s music playing in the background.

Cool. Now build a pickup on this same platform, Dodge. Dakota 392 SRT.

Thank you

I'm pretty sure it has a Mopar 311 Platform. I might be wrong though

I wish dodge will offered a Durango rt shaker 392. But at the 2016 SEMA show that was a concept model, wishing it go into production.

Mt.Hood in December and it's sunny? Wow.

Bigger than a Chevy Tahoe. Really. Cool.

Durango is ok. Not bad for a old platform. Its definitely is not bigger than a tahoe. I own a yukon denali and its wider taller and longer than a Durango. The Durango needs to be redesigned soon. But the SRT is pretty good looking to be so old. It has aged well. And there nothing like a good old gas guzzling V8

the eco mode is in the srt modes go to auto mode and press eco

when u mentioned its Mercedes roots I believe the durango from what ive heard is based of a Mercedes GL

The eco button is on the screen 😂😂

Here (kinda) on time!!😂

Jeep Grand Cherokee or this car ?

When are you reviewing the new Audi Q8/A8/A7/A6

You stated that you haven't test driven the current generation Durango, but didn't you test drove a 2012 Durango? Or do you mean you haven't test driven the refreshed Durango?

Naturally aspirated 👍🏽

Great review, this vehicle needs a major upgrade all the way around! Awesome outtakes, more please!

Performance in a segmant probably not often bought for that with horrible gas mileage for a segmant that needs as good as you can get.

Do you think it's a big risk to take this offroad? I mean, it's practically sitting on the ground! I wouldn't dare chance it and risk hitting something underneath...
