Who has the highest miles on their 1st generation Durango?
Just curious. I bought my 1999 Durango V8 5.2 4x4 in 2006 with 75,000 miles on it and in excellent condition for just $5000!! It had had only one owner, who had taken amazing care of the D. It now has 225,000 and is running pretty well. I haven't had to spend anything on it except for routine oil changes, bj replacement and new tie rods, break pads, and water pump. I wonder how many more miles I can put on it given proper care and maintenance. So, who has the most miles on his/her Durango in this forum?
