We did something else dumb this week...

[fubar569]

Had a 19 Silverado LD LT Z71 that avoided every major GM issue with their trucks. I mean nothing but oil changes and one set of rear brakes. Oh and the drivers side front diff axle seal. That's it. In 4.5 years and 47k miles.

Had. Because I decided I'd use this more instead:



26 GT Plus. Hemi. Tow & Go. Blacktop Redline.

Send help. I might be functionally rtarded.

Love the redline red @fubar569! We did the same thing…bought this 2025 R/T Plus with tow-n-go a couple of months ago. Triple nickle with ebony red interior. Miss the 5.7 Jeep GC but like the third row seating and extra cargo space of the Durango.

Saw one upclose today. Owner double parked and I had to sneak by. Quite a long chassis.

Might lend credence to the factory tow rating of 8700lbs. Do I want to hook 8700 to it? Not really. Do I have a charger hellcat that weighs 4600lbs already? Yep. Sure do.

Bought the 1500 to tow it. Had a car behind it 4x in 4yrs. 0 of which were the hellcat. Which is GOOD don't get me wrong...but the only time I ever peeled the tonneau cover back was to haul my 55gal drum of E85.

Noice! I tried the build tool for 2025's and with 5 or 6 color choices left and MSRP still pretty stupid...wasn't worth it. At one point I think I had a premium 20th with t&g down to about 60k - not enough difference to me to care and about 6500 more than this 26 was.

Can't get new 392's or Hellcats in PA because of bulls#%t CARB rules that our communist leaders decided to follow...but the 5.7 hauls out just good enough for a utilitarian daily driver.

I'm ordering one next month in Green Machine with black stripes, tow n go and blacktop redline pkgs.

 

[DGatzby]

Love my Durango. Good work. That does suck about the government control of the 392’s.

I really couldn't find a dealer that I wanted to deal with that would let me do a custom order. This happened to be in stock and 99% of what I wanted.

Also they still don't have their build and Price tool up for 2026. That's a serious missed opportunity

I get mine through the EL program so that's different, but I did bring up the build/ordering .com issues during the town hall meeting with Filosa on Wednesday and the fact that you can't build new models online and that is the direct link to our customers!!! That should be updated within a day of any announcements and a huge, missed opportunity but the woman that chose the questions to ask during the meeting did not pick anything fruitful!

@DodgeCares

Pay attention! This problem was submitted to the town hall but never made it as one of only three questions asked!

 

[drag racer]

Nice! Love my DDSRT.

 

[Unholy707]

Wish you could upfit an r/t to a tow n go. My 2021 has every issue in the book wrong with it. Hopefully they have all of the issues sorted out

 

[Unholy707]

Congrats btw. Love the Durango, hate the issues I've had with mine

Just beat it with a sledge....(you remember how to do that)

Care to elaborate just so I have a heads up on a couple things just in case?

I'm working out how to enable the full SRT pages and it's quite simple. You can use the touchscreen 100% like our hellcats but the TnG center stack buttons (Track/Sport/Tow/Snow) become inoperable. Making the TnG center stack buttons (Track/sport/tow/snow) work with it requires a whole pile of abject jackassery. Or swap to a hellcat stack which gives you the SRT shortcut...but no Track/Sport/Tow/Snow buttons and a useless launch button since that still doesn't work on a GT/RT due to a potential conflict with the cluster.

Service uconnect box message, wiped lifters, turn signal led going out requiring $2k replacement of entire headlight, rear load level shock issues. Yours should have the active suspension so should be fine. But the led switchback turn signal is turning into a big issue no idea how it's not a recall

1580 miles. New record for me.

aFe Magnum Force Stg2 intake and J&L Catch Can.

Going to Solo Performance on the 15th for an exhaust. Wanted a cyclone but apparently there's issues with clearance. They have a mostly complete kit they've been working on for the Durango they'll need to modify for the 5.7 and they're gonna jig it up for future orders...so we'll be knocking out 392/hellcat and 5.7 fitment all in one shot and I'll end up with a nice discount as a result.
