We have a 15 wrangler, and16 Cherokee both with pentastar engines. Both over 130000 miles. Just routine maintenance and they run like new. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy the Durango. Only pia is changing the air filter.

People with V6 are very happy with their choice. My 15 wrangler is pushing 150000 miles. Mostly by daughter. No issues, no engine repairs. In the ram, you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between the 4.7 and and the V6 power wise.

Nice looking truck, congrats!

I’m a ram truck guy, but from the info given, I’d be looking closely at GM with the duramax, unless it’s going to see a lot of short trips, than he’ll need a gasser.

I’m running terrain contact HT by Continental . They have been great for the last two years in far north jersey in all 4 seasons.

Out of your list, I would get the Wrangler. I find them reliable, fun and more versatile than a car. I get the V6 with auto and skip the turbo. My 16 has 150000 miles and still runs well. Have only had to do maintenance, no repairs yet. The new ones have e/ torque and in the past the battery has...

Best all around tire except they only lasted 28000 miles. Rotated every 5000 miles and air pressure was meticulously maintained.

I’d be using fleet guard stratopore filters if I was running a diesel engine.

You are correct! Dayum senior moment .

Op, research the Ford explorer/Goodyear issue . That’s when Goodyears rep really took a hit.

Hard to top the canary. You could look at the subaru Outback base model.

There’s plenty of help out there for the asking. If one isn’t motivated to find it, they aren’t ready to receive rehab/help.

Can’t help an addict that doesn’t want help.

I f they circumvent/ eliminate one amendment, they will eventually do away with the COTUS.

The seventies brought us unleaded gas and pollution control as well as a desire for fuel economy. The big three had to relearn how to build cars.
