Those with the v6 and 8spd tranny, could you tell me what kind of rpms you see at 70? What kind of fuel mileage are you seeing? Thinking about an SXT w/ v6.
Thanks Wayne
correction on the RPM at 70. It was actually 1800-2000.
So then with ECO off then it would be peppier and acceleration would be a little better? I usually keep it one.

Yes, when it is ON, the Gas pedal is less responsive and the transmission shifts less aggressively at lower rpm's. When you want to have a little fun, just push the button turn it off and go.

i might keep it off all the time, now that you told me that :-)

Thanks for the replies. My wife currently drives a 2012 1500 crew cab w/hemi. Wanting to get suv for grandkids. She really likes the looks of the new durangos. Sooo, looks like we're in the market for a 2014 Durango. I must say they are cool lookin myself. I think the V6 will work for her. Going to trade in the hemi too. Gonna like the better fuel economy for sure.
