Thinking about trading in the journey for a Durango. Should I get a v8 or v6 ? It has to be AWD

 

Are you a man or female?

 

Well, V8, of course. But be aware, once you have a V8 it is hard to go back...so be prepared.

 

Yeah....V8 is the new black.

this question still hangs?



V8. I've NEVER regretted getting the V8.

 

If youre a man, get a V8. If you want to be a woman, get a V6.

 

Well, I don't know whether to laugh or to be offended. I'm a man with a 2012 V6 AWD.

Very much wish I would have gone for the V8, although for no good reason other than I want it.

The V6 is perfectly capable for almost anything you throw at it and is quite impressive for towing. But it still isn't a V8, and while the mpg is better, only slightly so.

For the current models the V6 is even more tolerable, due to a 8 speed tranny instead of the 5 speed in earlier years.

That said... yeah, get the V8. If you are asking, you know you want it.

Buy Chevy or Ford!

 

Hahahaha.. Funny, even my wife wouldn't let me get a v6. Guess that's what happens when you let her drive your v8 cars in high school.

 

We have a V6 in our 2011, my wife drives it and it's a great car (like all Durangos imo). We never tow anything and the price was right so I don't buy all the "be a man" crap.
