QOTD: Is Dodge Durango FWD or AWD?

Welcome back to Question Of The Day, where I will be answering the questions that YOU, the Google Search customer, use to find our humble website. Your first question, Is Dodge Durango FWD or AWD, was asked by two different people! It deserves an answer, and the answer is: Sometimes it is one of those things!

Let’s see what else you wanted to know but were too afraid to publicly ask …

is the 2.7 liter v6 engine a good engine: This one’s a trick question, isn’t it? Because some 2.7-liter V6 engines are very good, and some are quite bad, and some are just in the middle. I did work with a fellow who got 200,000 miles out of a second-generation Dodge Intrepid powered by the Chrysler 2.7, which is the engine that I suspect you’re asking after. That is such a statistical outlier that I feel nervous even disclosing it to impressionable people who might then go ahead and buy a 2.7-liter Chrysler for some reason.

autonomous car nightmare: I assume this is a reference by the NSA to the nightmare I had the other night when I wasn’t wearing my foil hat. I was in an autonomous car with my first wife, who kept asking me to give her a specific time that I would be home from the skatepark that night. But in the nightmare, I ended up leaving my watch in my equipment bag and I didn’t actually get home until 97 minutes after my target time. In fact, this nightmare was pretty much my first marriage, except there was an autonomous car involved. And there was no part of the dream where I backed my Nissan Frontier into the parking posts in front of the Burger King next to the skatepark, even though that happened all the time in real life. It’s very interesting.

daimler tata: Somebody should kick your ass up through your teeth for even suggesting that.

whats the waiting time for austrlia to get the 2017 ford mustang v8: Considerably less than the waiting time for “Big Al” to get his Texas Edition badge from me, which is currently estimated at between 90 days and you go to hell.

ford van boaterhome: He was the fourteenth Baron of Saxony.

s550 mustang problems australia: I blame Big Al.

2007 nissan altima hybrid cars, how they work: Not very well, and the sales numbers reflected that.

bmw z3 roadster 1999 can the small door window rubber cause the the large window to stick: Depends on how small the door-window rubber is. If we’re talking about a Pekingese, probably not. But I betcha my son could defeat a power window in a BMW by rubbing it really hard.

car game: The English soldier throws up when he sees the frank and beans, if you know what I’m saying, and I think you do.

is ecoboost the same as dohc in a ford f-150? Exactly the same. They’re just fancy names for the same thing, which experienced mechanics call a “Johnson rod.”

delorean based on the bricklin: It’s an idea that has some merit but which would likely be more trouble than just doing a delorean based on the Esprit the way regular people do.

1984 chevy s-10 complaints and issues: The most common complaint is body odor, followed closely by failure to pay child support.

what means car length below 4mtr: That’s what I’ve always said! Once you get below four meters, it’s all pretty much the same, anyway!

show dodge aspen wagon for sale in california close to torrance or nearby area: NOW IT SHOWS THE DODGE ASPEN WAGON FOR SALE IN CALIFORNIA, CLOSE TO TORRANCE OR A NEARBY AREA. IT DOES THIS WHENEVER IT’S TOLD … *pause* … JUST SHOW THE ASPENS IN THE F**KING STATE!

That’s all for now, folks!

    I am always amazed at the stuff people will actually Google for. Even if they Bing.

      Wow. Seeing your comment was a total headtrip because I haven't read your blog in about 8 years (hey, sorry, I moved away from OKC) but as soon as I saw this post I thought, "Oh man, just like that dude from Dustbury used to do, those were hilarious!" Then I scroll down and see a comment from CGHill himself...

    "Was that English?" If it's leaking oil then, YES! And don't forget the 3M Stainguard that can only be installed by our factory trained certified technicians! The gas mileage on this car is so good you can say that after 6 months it starts to pay for itself! That means after a year stop making the loan/lease payments? YES!

  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X Where's the mpg?
  • Grg These days, it is not only EVs that could be more affordable. All cars are becoming less affordable.When you look at the complexity of ICE cars vs EVs, you cannot help. but wonder if affordability will flip to EVs?
  • Varezhka Maybe the volume was not big enough to really matter anyways, but losing a “passenger car” for a mostly “light truck” line-up should help Subaru with their CAFE numbers too.
  • Varezhka For this category my car of choice would be the CX-50. But between the two cars listed I’d select the RAV4 over CR-V. I’ve always preferred NA over small turbos and for hybrids THS’ longer history shows in its refinement.
  • AZFelix I would suggest a variation on the 'fcuk, marry, kill' game using 'track, buy, lease' with three similar automotive selections.
