| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
This is by far the BEST value for an entry level or lower level 7 passenger car on the road today. Ours came in, nicely equipped at just under $27k. |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 283-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We happened to come across a dealer who was selling at invoice (although I'm sure they still made plenty of money), so there was no reason waste time with a painful negotiation process. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Most features I was looking for the money I wanted to spend,0% financing |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Price was great compared to its rivals. Little cheaper materials interior wise but I can live with it saving the money we did. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
For the same features, it was about $10k cheaper then the competition. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
We got a good deal. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Low financing available at 4%. I paid just over 1/2 of MSRP with discounts/incentives |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 173-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
economical price well below comparable vehicles |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Price is thousands less than comparable Toyota, Ford or GM products. |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |

affordable - under $25k |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
You can get into a new Journey for under $20,000 |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I bought this car with 19,000 miles and paid a little more than half of the MSRP. Chryslers should never be purchased new. They depreciate too quickly |
