[QUOTE="Blk04L, post: 15930786, member: 48574"] Got the wife a 13 sport and then a 15 Durango R/T a few years later. Pros: Torque down low. Interior was nice, exterior as well. Sync worked well. Cons: MPG was 17.4 average on a 80/20 Hwy/city split. Cruise control most of the time and the terrain is flat. the durango on the same drive gets 19.2-20mpg on same drive/conditions. 18.6 gallon gas tank felt too small too for the size of the truck. At least for us since we drive a lot. Ours had/developed an issue with one of the heads on the engine. Started to notice a little oil stain on bottom of the filter. Dealership thought it was something above the filter causing the issue(adapter?)... nope. The head porosity was messed up causing oil to leak between the head and the block when the engine was still cold. Multiple engineers came down to examine the engine but no signs of overheating was found. Couple of months later, Ford authorized a new head, but the lead engine mechanic wanted a new long block. Got a new head, made sure the leaking was over and traded it in. Was so glad I held off on tuning it. [/QUOTE]
