I think I got mine for a fair price... not a steal. but yet not too much... but $2,800 for an 00 R/T. it needs some TLC... but just cosmetic stuff.
I was specifically looking for something with 4x4 and 3rd row, so it fit the bill. I just wish it was any color OTHER than black. 170k, leather is real nice, hood and bumper are both dinged up pretty good... but new tires, new exhaust, and a bunch of routine maintenance records to go along with it. oh. and dog hair. lots of dog hair. ;-)

As far as the cosmetic stuff they are all pretty cheap, easy Saturday projects. A little tip: i have found that if you take duct tape and make donuts (with the sticky side up of course) to fit around your fingers and then just keep taping on the carpet till its full seems to work the best with dog hair.

private sale. had it up for 3500? I think. she had it for 12 or so years. but aside from their son, was the last piece of the puzzle tying her to the ex. haha. which made for a very interesting title transfer ;-)
I used to detail cars... so all the little tricks are coming back to me. what I found works best, is we have a rubber dog brush. it's like a glove, but with a couple hundred little fingers. that works about the best. just pretend that you're brushing your dog, then vaccum it up. rubber gloves also work well for normal hair, just by rubbing back and forth on carpet / upholstery.
there's a small lot on 322, down towards Ephrata has a slightly newer red r/t, and a black one with some funky red stripes. they were closed when I came by, or else I would have stopped just to see what they wanted for it.
I'll be at Spring Carlisle for work on Wednesday... I want to pick up some sort of R/T badges - even if it is for something older, and not quite the right style.

I paid $2800 for mine about 4 years ago and it had around 175,000 miles on her. Since then I had to get the transmission rebuilt, replaced the front differential (the place that rebuilt the transmission neglected to install a few of the front bolts that hold the differential to the motor and .....SNAP... the damn casing broke). I MADE them buy another one and installed it myself. I also put all new tires on her. Pretty much I love my Durango. It tows my 7500 pound boat pretty easily.
Now she has 220,000 miles on her....
