MGP from San Diego is the way to go. I got some black ones just to be subtle, and love the look. Although if I had to do over again I'd get the carbon fiber ones.

I'm at a toss up, trying to decide between the red or black ones. It would be REAL nice if they could custom engrave a Decepticon emblem on them

For an R/T I couldn't agree more: Reds the way to go, but I have a Citadel, and wanted a little more subtle look, so I went with black. Also, I got a set of carbon fiber covers for my Pontiac GXP, and had that custom engraved on them, so having a Decepticon put on is not only possible, but I like the idea too. Hmmm.....

It'll match my front license plate :-) This was taken a while back, on a dirty day and before I put the new Dodge emblem with red hash on the front grill

Completed a trip to the UK and back. 4,700 km and the new Durango never missed a beat. Only trouble is the stuck in the on position front screen blower.

Just fitted in the Euro Tunnel train lower deck.
View through the sunroof with the aerial kissing the cross sections.


The Yorkshire Dales National Park




A little bit long for typical UK car parks


And even too high for some which have a 181 cm height restriction.

I was hoping to get a good pic in front of this viaduct. Sunny weather (!) and the train was a bonus.


Took a cross-Channel ferry back to mainland Europe.



Again just over the181cm height restriction for cars, so they put us with the big boys.


Back in Switzerland – slightly more generous spaces


The car was superb – absolutely perfect comfort and totally competent in all driving conditions. I even used the ventilated seat a few times

Despite speeds of up to 200 km/h and always enthusiastic driving, we returned a fuel consumption of 14.3 litres/100 km = 16.5 miles per US gallon / 19.75 miles / UK gallon – which is notably better than the previous gen 1 4.7 Durango achieved – even with that car's Vmax cut-out limited to 184 km/h.


Just need that damn switch sorting out...

Hey Speedy, great to see the Durango in Europe. Great Pics. I have got the same white Citadel V8 HEMI.
