Looking to replace the wife’s rotted out 2006 town & country. Thinking a Dodge Journey might be a good choice. Anyone have bought a new journey? Good choice?

Not new but bought our 12 AWD 2 years ago.Love it and decent gas milage.Only thing I dont like is the way and time it takes to change rear struts.3 seater you have to pull the rear seat and all the trim.Rocky

My wife has a 2015 V6 FWD. It has just under 40K miles on it and the only problems we have had is with the navigation, and the backup camera. The navigation stuff was under warranty, the backup camera was on us for $350, well worth it to keep the wife having a backup camera lol.

We came from a 2010 Ford Edge Sport into the Journey. We wanted a 3rd row because we have friends with a kid the same age as ours and we like to travel places together, totally worth it for us. The Journey is MUCH more solid inside and much quieter on the road. The Edge was a rattle trap, probably due to its 22" rims and sport suspension. The journey is quicker and has a higher top speed limit(118 vs 112) and at top speed the Jounrey's sunroof isn't trying to come off. Overall very happy with the journey even though I don't think it looks as good as our Edge did.

Things that the journey lacks that I think everything else has is.
Memory settings for the drivers seat and mirrors, and a power hatch. The power hatch seemed stupid at first on the edge but after awhile you realize it is actually pretty cool, especially when you buy a car that doesn't have one.
