The 2001 Dodge Durango for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2001 Dodge Durango; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Before you buy the 2001 Dodge Durango, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the Durango
Owners filed 665 complaints with NHTSA, most often about suspension, power train and electrical system; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
What the figures tell you
Power comes from the 4.7L 8-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
It is rated 16.8 L/100 km combined: about 50 litres every 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $26.04 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
What to expect from the Durango
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
A longer test drive
Rent the Durango for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week with the Durango answers more than any brochure. Rent the Durango for a week and see how it fits your life.
Picking a year and a trim
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. 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.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$4,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $26.04 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $260.40 at our price setting.
Over to you
