I do have a couple questions for you guys though:
1. When stereo is in Bluetooth mode with my iphone 5, after shutting vehicle off the stereo goes back to satellite radio instead of staying in Bluetooth aux. Is this normal?
2. When unlocking the door by pressing the door handle sensor, is there a way to unlock all doors instead of just the driver?
3. Is there a way to disable the seat belt chime (there are times I don't need my belt, please don't turn this into a seat belt lecture)?

Thanks guys!
Merle,

Congrats on the new Durango!!!

The seat belt chime can be disabled by a Dodge dealership, although it is not recommended. Also, just be aware that if you do have the chime disabled the seatbelt light on the dash will still illuminate when the belt(s) are not buckled.

Thanks for the replies guys, will get some pics up hopefully today! This is the first SUV I have ever had after having Toyota trucks (last was 10 Tundra Rock Warrior) for nearly 20 years. Much easier with day to day driving and pulled my two place snowmachine trailer just fine on Sunday.
Yes my charger has the same push button start.

no problem. There is a parking sensor switch on the dash.

Nice. Love the white/black top combo! I just had my windows tinted too. Looks great!
