Dodge Durango is handsome, powerful, versatile, and refined. For many buyers, however, Durango's most appealing feature is its justright size. Based on the Dakota pickup, Durango is smaller and more maneuverable than the fullsize SUVs, such as the Ford Expedition and Chevrolet Tahoe. Yet Durango still offers sixpassenger seating, V8 power, and a hefty towing capacity. Dodge Durango has found a comfortable niche that Ford and GM missed. With theaterstyle seating that gives rearseat passengers a view of the road ahead, and other interior creature comforts, the Durango is a smart choice for large families. It's also a good choice for people who tow light to mediumsized trailers. A beefy 5.9liter V8 is available, and it delivers plenty of pulling power, while the more sophisticated 4.7liter overheadcam V8 offers decent performance and an added measure of refinement. A new fivespeed automatic transmission is available for 2002 that should improve fuel economy. Also new for 2002 are optional sidecurtain air bags ($495), available for every trim level. For 2002, Dodge has added a highvalue trim level called SXT with unique Graphite trim. Last year, Durango benefited from an allnew, more comfortable and more carlike interior, plus a new performancetuned R/T model.

Buying a 2002 Dodge Durango

Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2002 Dodge Durango, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2002 Dodge Durango for less money than when it was new. If the 2002 Dodge Durango was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.

The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2002 Dodge Durango is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.

Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2002 Dodge Durango will have a good resale value. This assumes that the 2002 Dodge Durango is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
