Hi Ben, big fan of your videos. I reviewed every Durango video you have and decided to buy one. I live in SoCal and when I watched your Durango R/T 2019 video the surroundings looked familiar. My brother lives in Taylorsville and I visit quite often. I’m getting the black out package with red interior. I am very excited! But wanted to let you know that when I test drove it, your review was spot on!!! I’ll be taking mine to the south/west side as soon as we can travel again! Great content and I have referred your channel several times. Best wishes!! So Cal approves!

All you did was compare the options between the two models which either can be configured however you choose. In fact the GT can now be had with the same exact exterior styling as the R/T. That was not a good comparison video at all.

Here in Ny awd Gt with all the standard options you showed Sticker is 39k a factor to is Gas mileage. I have a Hemi in my ram I only get 13mpg running around so I got my wife the V6 Durango limited she gets 20mpg running around the milage makes a big difference.. If I was gonna get a Durango for speed I'd get a slightly used SRT for price of a new RT

I picked the RT for sound and expandable Hp ability... & I was coming from a Camaro Ss, no other “ family “ ride has the RT ( SRT) ability. GT is nice, the 3.6 is amazing... but for sure, they need to give v8 little more hp and design to make up for the money... I still love the RT better!
@tajriantareq44644 жыл бұрын
For esthetics, you can option both the R/T and the GT exactly the same. The only difference is the GT and R/T badges and now the newer R/T’s have a fender HEMI badge and some interior options like the Entertainment system and alcantara seats. The main reason why you would buy the R/T over the GT is because of the 5.7 HEMI but the GT is not that much slower, it’s tow rating is pretty good and still had the menacing look of the R/T and SRT

You can always tell when the reviewer didn't take the time to actually sit in the 3rd row seats when they just glance back there and assume that it must be cramped back there. It's surprisingly roomier than it looks and every review I've seen where they actually get in the 3rd row will acknowledge that fact. I'm 6 ft tall and was able to fit into the 3rd row comfortably.

Nice review. I am picking up an RT on Friday. I am turning in a loaded GT. I was trying to decide between the RT and the GT and after driving the RT the choice was easy. It handles better and the exhaust note is great. You really cannot tell you are driving a full size SUV. The SRT is over kill in my opinion and over 60K. I had a great owners experience for 3 years and hope the next 3 years are even better.

I recently found out that I'm having another kid, so I looked into these Durangos. It's a 100% no from me.. I own a 2019 Charger 392 scatpack. I absolutely love my car. So looking into a family SUV like this was a no brainier. But the 392 and even the hellcat versions of these Durangos are outrageously over priced, that goes for these R/Ts as well. How do I know? A base price V6 charger is $29,995. A base price Charger 392 scatpack runs $39,995. That's a 10k difference for what amounts to a bigger motor, bigger breaks, upgraded suspension and maybe a better transmission?. That's it, 10k seems like a reasonable price for what you get. Now do the same for a base V6 Durango...it will run you $30,795. Now let's take a look at the base price of a 392 Durango. It's gonna set you back $62,995 WHAT!!!??? THATS OVER A $32k difference! Dodge are you insane?!?! I can buy two V6 Durangos for the price of one 392 🤣. And what do you get for that extra 32k? Nothing more than what a base Charger scatpack gives you, ohh wait no, you get leather and AWD 😂 yeah that sounds perfectly reasonable. Dodge I love you, but you've gone insane and I can't believe anyone would shell out 62k for a Durango that essentially looks the same as a base v6. The R/T version is cheaper, but still well over priced for what guy get. No thank you, I'll stick to my Charger until I have a 3rd kid.

Daniel, anything that makes you wish you got the R/T as opposed to the GT? I am leaning towards GT because of fuel consumption and price. I def want the performance hood. I test drove a GT a few months ago and the sticker price was $48k... I dont think I mind by as opposed to the v8. AWD is a must got me. Still trying to hold off on purchasing a new car for a few months but trying to do research and get opinions. The wife is convincing me on a Tesla model 3 before the Durango....

But as an informational resource, I dont view this video as a credible source to make any educated decisions about my 2020 RT purchase. On the plus side, an early look is very much appreciated and you didnt miss a beat with speaking the details.
