2023 Dodge Durango R/T: The Only Family SUV Worth Buying 

You mean you have 4 kids. Lol

@@christophermaclachlan2694her kids, husband, and her . That’s five

@@charles1517 Husband= kid?

Your Durango has the 5.7 hemi?

@@SwizzMedia-kt5tr No. A six cylinder.

So still the original motor and transmission?

Absolutely @@richardlanier2113

funny im literally in the same boat, thinking of trading my santa fe calligraphy in 4 a rt plus

​@@elitegamerprochamp3437 great choice 😁

Mine too.

Me too but why is it so expensive 😭😭😭

I know

Mid consoles opens both ways and has one usb connection for back seats

It sucks when you have car seat in 2nd row. Only option is to remove center console so that we can get into 3rd row. I been debating from last few months to buy one.

@@malnadgowda_inusa3734 I agree. We won’t buy it for that exact reason.

@@malnadgowda_inusa3734I have a car seat in the second row & can still open the access to the 3rd row 🤷🏻‍♀️

I ordered all the parts to do it for my tow and go. It's still like 6 weeks out tho/:

If Ben mentioned the 0-60 times in his videos, he'd get a 10 out of 10

Agreed, unless you can get a GT Plus with all the packages for less than 45k (which is possible). But the Durango lacks a lot of tech other competitors have. The Telluride and Palisade both crush the Durango in terms of value.

@@JVeleta11 Lol, I think beauty is subjective but you’re definitely in the minority if you look at sales. I love the Durango (I’m on my second one in 9 years). I don’t do the HEMI because I care about fuel efficiency more than torque/HP (I don’t tow anything either). I like the minor updates Dodge made to the front and interior, but the design is still roughly the same as it’s been for 13 years. I’d like to see a more radical redesign. And they still don’t offer a lot of what you get in other SUVs at the same price point.

It's completely redesigned this year so yeah... That doesn't really matter.

@@LordCyler What is completely redesigned?

I have it with shit load of extras and sport srt breaks l love it!!

LMAO, a 2019-20 with 25k Mike's is 65k where I am

​@@JVeleta11 is that before or after all the extras?

They’re 43-47k where I’m at

These are not cars you’re financing new. You lease them and either buy thru lease or trade them in. Unless you getting big GUAP.

You better get out from underneath that rock you're hiding under, because that's the new prices. SRT are like 70k+

My '21 RT doesn't have auto start/stop, just cylinder deactivation (eco mode) and you can turn it off.

2014+ has it

@@2TONKA I checked my manual and it shows the button placement in the vehicle if equipped, but I don't have it. It should be next to the sport mode button but mine is blank. I have a '21 RT with some options for reference.

@@66cotter ohh

I think Stellantis is more likely to kill it outright than replace it. The Grand Cherokee L is basically the new Durango and I doubt Stellantis wants to cannibalize those sales.

@@kentatm2663 I think people bought Durango want a performance "SUV" we won't get that for a while from JEEP yes I am sure there will be a trackhawk version of the New GC.

2024 they redesigning . Was gonna turn my 2020 lease in for a 2023 hemi orange but gonna wait to see what the 2024 look like

What's almost 13 years?

@@2TONKA since a complete redesign. They've certainly had refreshes over the years, but that's it.

Looks like a octane red color

In 2024, not this 2023

No major changes for 23’ other than colors

@@BenHardyCars Thanks!

@@BenHardyCars so what year is this model you are reviewing?

I was wondering myself, want to trade my 2020 R/T Lease in but I haven't seen a 2023

thats what I thought. Why isnt 2023 showing on durango website?

That's a tough question to answer! I have a 21 Grand Cherokee Limited X but am looking at the RT or ST. I'm torn between both!

I bought a 23 Durango RT Plus 3 weeks ago. Loving it!

This one does not, usually offered on the RT Plus. The way you can tell when viewing online is by looking at the steering wheel for the car length buttons

I dunno... so many of the automakers just fart out a bunch of glossy piano black or carbon fiber for the "modern" interiors interiors w/a big ass tablet randomly tacked on and call it a day. I'd much rather have the materials in the average the Durango and the infotainment screen actually built into the dash. The "modern" gloss piano black and carbon fiber accents are going to age horribly plus and the amount of dust and fingerprints the black picks up is maddening.

@Catholic Firefighter take a look at the new design and tell us what you think. It’s ugly!!!

He really doesn't talk that fast. Seems to me that you may just be a slow listener... with poor grammar.

+1 ...I had a hard time understanding at the beginning . Slow down.....

Listen faster!

@@berso84 😂🤣😂😂🤣😂

well if your a man driving it

@@JVeleta11 Yeah i have a 2022 SRT, tried to get the Hellcat. Kinda pissed the 2023 might have one. Lots of talk about the 2021 owners suing dodge now over it.

Ok Karen

Who cares? This SUV drives like a big charger.
