2010 Dodge Journey Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by lowhz01

Exterior styling

It has a different style than other crossovers. Not too high off the ground and not too low. Blends well with the new vurve in automotive styling.

Fuel economy

The gas mileage is great for a 7 passenger SUV. On the highway at 60 mph you can see 25-28 mpg. City wise we see 18-19.

Ride smoothness

Very smooth ride. Bumps are not firm and direct.

Quietness

Interior is very quiet. Wind noise is very minimum as well as road noise.

Price or payments

Price was great compared to its rivals. Little cheaper materials interior wise but I can live with it saving the money we did.

Interior styling

Very cheap plastic with not much contrast.

Powertrain performance

Could use more power like the comparable vehicles. Although the V6 gives good power, it wouldbe nice to add a little more.

Front seat support & comfort

Cushion in the seats are not good. with my bad back long drives are not very good. Need to add a cushion or it is hard on my butt.

Controls and instruments

The radio should be put where the air controls are and vice versa. Cruise control lever is horrid and should be put as buttons. Lock out should be put on gear shift as well.

Materials & workmanship

You can tell some parts are cheaply made as the interior. Some interior pieces do not meet very well, but do not hang too far away.
