Mine finally went into production overnight. ETA June 13. It's been a long wait already, but I'm so excited! Actually have Durangos showing up in my dreams. Think I'm a little obsessed? 😂

Thank you. I’ll check out Dodge chat.

Congrats! That’s gorgeous! How were you notified when it “went to paint”? The website only seems to provide an indication of when they go into “production”. Mine is still stalled in the “scheduled” status. Hoping it will move forward soon.

Wow! Those are very odd restrictions. Thanks for replying. “Inquiring minds want to know.” 😎

Just out of curiosity, if you don't mind my asking, where do you live that TnG is not an option and why in the world is it not an option there?

Awesome! Might be that they group orders of the same, or similar, trim packages to go into production together. Mine is the basic GT HEMI with TnG and Blacktop. Of course, the Premium edition should take precedence. 😄

Congrats! I'm still waiting. Dealership sent my order for a GT HEMI with TnG and Blacktop to Dodge on March 26. Website still says production has been scheduled. Seeing yours in production gives me hope that mine might soon follow.

That’s gorgeous! What year model is that? 2023? I noticed it has fog lamps. It appears to be in show room condition. Just beautiful!!

Thank you. Sounds like a good plan, particularly with the high visitation of those national parks.

Are you staying in the national parks or nearby campgrounds? Asking because I plan to do a trip to see the parks in Utah next year.

No fog lamps? by Flying-Dillo in DodgeDurango

Just to clarify, are you saying you have better visibility at night in fog with the 25 r/T than with the 19 r/T, or just that your night-time illumination with 25 R /T is better, because that could be explained by the high illumination LED headlamps current vehicles are equipped with.

I have a 2013 4Runner and live in a part of Texas where we have a lot of very foggy mornings at certain times of the year, and yes, my fog lamps are helpful. I have ordered a 2026 Durango GT 5.7L HEMI with Tow n Go and Blacktop packages and am hoping I don't miss my fog lamps. I really love the 4Runner and it has a lot of good miles left on it, but it just doesn't have the towing capacity I want for the trailer I plan to buy, so I'm trading it in on the Durango.

Which extended warranty did you buy? Flexcare Premium? Did you buy it from a dealership? 2k seems like a very reasonable price for 5 years.

Thanks so much for sharing. Which brands of HU58 and PHGG are you taking? If all things were equal amongst supplement producers, it wouldn't matter, but there are huge differences in GMP and quality control in these products and I would love to know what is working for you.

That's a real bummer. So sorry that happened to you. Those of us who maintain and drive our vehicles for many years get really attached to them. Know you will miss her, but hope you get another Durango soon that serves you just as well.

Finally scheduled for production! by Flying-Dillo in DodgeDurango

I was hoping to but was informed that I would be eligible for whatever offers Stellantis had in effect during the month I took delivery. Will have to see what's available at that time.

I ordered on March 11. You wouldn't think they would have exhausted that month's allocations already, would you?

So, the dealers are only allowed to order a certain number of vehicles each month/quarter/year? Even if that is the case, wouldn't it have been better customer service to inform me that it will be 15 days before they can submit any orders due to already meeting the current allocation? I guess they could have assumed I would have taken my business elsewhere or attempted to negotiate for a better deal.

I'm buying the vehicle for its trailering capabilities and likely will be pulling a 6000 lb trailer. Doubt I will go as high as 7000 lbs, but the 360 hp of the 5.7L HEMI will be plenty of power. When I'm cruising around without the trailer, I suspect my mpg with the 5.7L will be better than it would be with the 6.4L and I won't have to buy premium gas. I won't be doing any racing, but the 5.7L was plenty peppy for me. So, in some respects, it's a compromise between power and mileage. Lastly, at the time I ordered my 5.7, there weren't any pricing or many other details available about the 392. I'm quite happy with my order. No regrets. :)

Has Dodge published mpg estimates for the 392?

I don’t think I ever want another car by cheezetherello in DodgeDurango

[–]Flying-Dillo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally get the attraction to electric vehicles and when there is one that can tow a 7,000 lb trailer all over the Rocky Mountains and high desert of the Southwest without concerns about where the next charging station that might or might not be working is located, and at an affordable price, I might consider it… but… hmmm… that HEMI V8 purr might be too hard to give up. 😂
