    Looks much better, i almost kind of like it.

    My sister has a 09 Durango, and I HATE that thing, feels cheap and feels too much like a truck.

    It looks more like a crossover vehicle and less like an SUV!

    It shares it's platform with the all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee...which, as the XJ (cherokee), ZJ, WJ, WK (last three Grand Cherokee), KJ (Liberty) were all unibodies.

    Like the all new jeep, it's a RWD based platform w/ North/South engine alignment unlike most cross-overs.

    It's not that you won't see "cross-over" or "CUV" used in describing the durango...but I generally would reject that descriptive for the vehicle...why? Because the term "crossover" is used to describe car or minivan based platforms built to approximate an SUV. In the case of the durango and Jeep, there is no car based vehicle it can be said to share a platform with nor derived from.

    Actually looks pretty good. Pretty impressive tow ratings for something on a unibody!

    I've seen the SRT version with flat black fascias, it is pretty sweet.
    Buy made in the United States. Otherwise your job might be next. Unless you already wear black shoes and a visor with golden arches on it to work in which case your fellow american has already failed you.
