New DD: Project DurRTay-D

[Halon]

Picked up a new DD last night. Missed out on a used 14 w/ 40k miles on Tuesday by 15 minutes which I was bummed about, but I think it worked out for the better. Ended up finding this one yesterday for just a little more money, but its a 2015 w/ 4800 miles. So basically brand new, just some other poor bastard took the new car initial depreciation hit. Here's a basic run down of it.

2015 Durango RT
- 5.7 Hemi V8
- 8spd Auto
- 4800 miles
- Black exterior with 20" polished\black rims
- Black leather interior w/ rear captain seats
- Tow package (7500lbs rating)
- Pretty much decked out, but a couple things I know it doesn't have are sunroof or rear DVD system
- Lifetime Power train warranty
- 5yr 75000 Bumper to Bumper warranty
- 5yr body warranty (unlimited PDR, damaged wheel replacement, things like that)

They also tried to sell me on a full front 3M clear bra ($800) and some Auto Armor interior\exterior protection package ($900) but I said I'd think about it. Any good input on those from people that might have experience with it? Calling senior Curt!

Plan is for it just be my sweet dad mobile. I do have a few mods in mind, but in no rush to do them.
- Add black running boards/bars
- Add sunroof
- Intake
- Exhaust
- Possibly a PnP Diablo tune if I can find a way to have it not screw up my warranty

Love it so far. The racetrack tails and LED front DRL's are pretty sweet. The rumble of the V8 sounds fucking boss. I was going to get the V6 previously but once I test drove an RT I was hooked. It feels quick and torquey for its size, but not really all that fast in the grand scheme of things.

On to some pics!

Love the ride, looks badass! Nearly new too with plenty of warranty...can't beat that.

Skip the clear bra, did that once, never again...waste of money. Costs more than just getting the front end repainted and it ended up needing replacement about every other year. Wax on the exterior a few times a year and vinyl/leather conditioning wipes is all you need for the interior protection since they aren't cloth seats; and of course the occasional vacuuming and shampooing/steam cleaning on the floor carpet.

Very nice! Pimpin to the max!

[Halon]

Pretty much my thoughts, and why I told them I would think about it.

[asshanson]

Yea, my last two cars have had clear bras, looks really bad once you start getting rock chips, and then you have to replace. Easier to just fix the bad spots or repaint.

Congrats, looks like a sweet DD!

[Goat Blower]

Yeah, those add on's is where the dealer really makes their money, huge markup. You're better off getting that stuff after the fact.

I love the tail lights on those things, badass.

Add sunroof? I wouldn't do anything but factory these days, aftermarket is asking for leaks and problems.

[Halon]

Its 2015 Steve, not the leaky 90's :D

[Kracka]

If the Diablo for those is anything like it is for my Corvette or Cruze, they are 100% untraceable once flashed back to stock, they don't even trip the flash counter.

For $800 what does the clear bra cover? At that price it should cover
- Whole front bumper
- First 1/3 of the hood
- Backs of mirrors
- Edges of all 4 doors
- Rear bumper where it meets the tailgate.

If it's less than that, it's too expensive.

Awesome ride. I am actually going to go look at one this weekend.

Only thing has me worried is there's been two reports of the motors locking up with under 20,000miles.

Dealership warranties it but still has me thinking about later on.

As I've personally havent seen the 2015 yet.Does it look like it will have enough room for a family of 6 and still be able to carry there stuff?
