Yes the Dodge Durango is a good car, But keep in mind the car is just as good as the way it was taken care of, Especially if you are looking into used.They had many problems with the 5.2 318 due to lack of maintenance. I can truly blame the problems with the 5.2 318 on owners who fail to change their oil and follow service guidelines on the first generation Durangos,I know this because I have a 1999 318 Durango (purchased new) and have not had one major problem with it at all. The key to this was following the maintenance schedule Dodge provides in the owners manual with my local mechanic.

If you are considering on of these make sure you either buy new and maintain it or look for one that has a flawless service history (proven with records,of coarse)

From what I understand Dodge has made the engines to withstand poor ownership better but good maintenance will always save you costly repairs in the long run. Not to mention it greatly helps you with resale if you have documentation.
