Buying the 2001 Dodge Durango

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2001 Dodge Durango for sale by us right now. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. This page sets out the 2001 Dodge Durango for buyers, in plain words.

What to check on the Durango

NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 665 complaints with NHTSA, most often about suspension, power train and electrical system; have those parts checked. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

The numbers in plain words

The 4.7L 8-cylinder, paired with a 4-speed automatic, drives it. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Plan on about 50 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 16.8 L/100 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $26.04 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,800 a year for 15,000 miles.

Space and size

The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.

Who it is for

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.

A longer test drive

A test week in the Durango tells you more than any review. Try the Durango on your commute, then decide. A week with the Durango answers more than any brochure.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$4,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $260.40 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $26.04 in fuel.

Narrowing it down

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

Questions first?

Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2001 Dodge Durango from us first.
