NOOOOOO I'm going to throw a tantrum cuz I'm so pizzed

 

Well according to allpar the 14's get 10% stiffer suspension and bigger sway bars. Guess I'll be updating my suspension soon.

 

does the 2014 come stock with 22" rims? The picture shows the new D with Dodge 22" rims.

Thanks for the congrats, but sorry I was vague, when we were looking at the dash of the Grand Cherokee it was in anticipation of what the dash of the new Durango is going to look like. What I meant was I left my name on a list to order a '14 Durango. While I like the Grand Cherokee and I prefer its 4wd system I need the longer wheelbase of the Durango for stability when towing our camper. I also prefer the looks of the Dodge.
Looking at the pics I was disappointed to see they left off the sport mode on the shifter, but there is an "eco" button which may accomplish the same thing if turned off. The dash layout is different than the Jeep's too and I am hoping it will display transmission and oil temps like the GC does - very helpful when towing.
I really like the new nose, tail and wheels. It will be interesting to see how soon they will be accepting orders. I am also looking forward to seeing what the Limited package includes.
I would be surprised if the aftermarket didn't come out with similar headlights for the current model.

 

Glad I decided to wait for the 14. Only hard decision will be engine selection.

 

Glad I went with the 13'. Hate the lights and the dial shifter.(whoops the wife says.. I went to put it in reverse and I change the transfer case to low but forgot to switch it back and I'm broke down on the freeway")The tach is weak and looks like an afterthought. I do like the updated u-connect. I was hoping against all odds they would lighten this thing up but alas they are adding MORE WEIGHT! More airbags and such, good thing it has the 8 speed. Looks like it will need it.

 

wow lol... cant understand how people get excited about some cheap LED lights of all things

i was gonna add halos and LED's inside my 2013 headlight case...that idea came and went once I saw they were standard equipment on like Honda Accords and I think Kia's haha (well I still might do halos
one day, Doubt they will be standard for at least a couple more years on most cars, if at all...now THAT would excite me if they do it soon, and before, not after, every other car make does it or already plans to)

thats why I like the tails, at least thats a DODGE original/trademark - not another "me too" car feature like LED's

 

LEDs are a big deal. Think about it. LEDs revolutionized Audi's and Porsches. They took the exact vehicle from last generation, added LEDs and BAM new product that sell like hotcakes. It makes a boring vehicle look new and interesting right away.

 

Very true vectorz, but as SS2RT said its not their idea and seems out of place sometimes on these new cars , not this D per say. I almost feel its getting overdone nowadays to some extreme.
Believe me I love LED lights, my wifes 08 Avenger R/T came with optional interior LED lighting pkg and it is incredible.
The new D has some great items but its not totally redone. SOme of the interior changes are good some weren't necessary, nor fitting.
If they still want to market this as a true Tough SUV, they need to slow down on some of these features. If their goal is to turn it into a SUPERSIZE crossover then keep going.
