I love your appreciation for the R/T. I have an R/T and it's phenomenal. Someone recently told me that the 5.7 and 3.6 are basically the same and I should have just got the 6.4 SRT if I wanted real power. 😂 I also have a 3.6 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it's not even close to the 5.7 R/T Durango. R/T has great performance, great sound, and reasonably good fuel mileage as well! An all around great package for the price.
I have a 2016 Durango RT from new and it has been a great SUV and very reliable, I have a set of snow tires on rims for the winter here in Canada and it handles the ice and snow very well. I would buy it again no regrets.
@@JVeleta11 why do you even have a 5.7 then? Since you have both you should probably just get rid of that noisy and embarrassing V8 and stick with the V6's.
@6:06 that’s because my ‘16 Tahoe with chrome trim will run with this thing neck and neck. It looks meaner than it actually is. So people gravitate toward the higher trims.
That would be the best sensible SUV to get without being over ridiculous on horsepower. I like that package and the color also. Thanks Racer X for showing a good video of it. 😎👍
I love my Hemi Orange Charger SPWB. I was disappointed at first that it was more of a squash color than orange, but it’s definitely grown on me. What I still don’t like is that the brake calipers don’t exactly match the stripe, badges, and stitching. But what’re ya gonna do.
@@highwayman1218 depends on who you are. Older people (in their 70s) I could see them having knee issues getting in. Then you go with an electronic running board that retracts up under solves the problem
Racer X good pick I like. The Dodge Durango get appreciation that should when comes sales. Dodge should be selling more of these. I would take one of these over a Toyota Highlander or Ford Explorer and doesn't have to be a R/T model either.
Sold my 6th gen GT to get the Mrs a SUV... I don't like anything SUV from anyone else and we got a Durango RT.. Its been a good vehicle and were still happy with it. The only downer is what I really wanted was the SRT package minus AWD. They didn't offer it, till a few years later when they offered the Durango with the tow package (which was basically a SRT in RWD). If I was to do it again, I'd of waited and got the Heavy Tow with 6.4 and Brembos.
Great video. Love the hemi Orange. We have a 2022 Durango RT plus in destroyer grey. It is an awesome drive and the exhaust sound is amazing. It has plenty of power and is overall a great SUV! It’s my new daily driver. The scat pack still sits in the garage most of the time.
Traded in my 2017 r/t for 2023 R/T HO amd I'm in love. Soooo many more shiny things than my 2017 had. Now.. to figure out hoelw to get this Drag mode to work 😂
We had an RT Durango as a rental for a few days, so much comfort on this car, very nice ride for daily driving and space. Been trying to get the girlfriend to get into one since I got the same orange package but in a Scat Challenger 😁.
Racer X I would like to get your thoughts of putting in the IGLA pin code security system on 2022+ Dodge Charger Scat Packs? I have a new 2022 Dodge Charger ScatPack and I am looking to put a good security system into my car where it would be extremely difficult for thieves to steal my car. Thanks.
I can’t remember the name right now, but a high ranking Dodge employee already said that the Dodge V8 will live in 2024, meaning that the Durango 5.7 and possibly even the 6.4 will live at least for another year.
I have a 2016 Durango R/T.....after 60K miles w/ no issues, I sold to Carvana....with a $44k sticker, red leather interior I sold her for $29K in 2021...wish I never sold her!!!!
T-N-G Hemi Orange Durango is the way to go comes with the orange calipers and everything SRT including exhaust except engine. Can you explain or find out why Dodge deleted the Fog lights and side mirror turn signals on the 2023 Hemi Orange Durango 🤔 I see no response from racerx🤷🏿♂️
Yeah, I was bummed about the fog lights on mine. I didn't notice that till after I bought it. I do have a parts list for all the parts to add them though. Parts are less than $1000
I had a 2018 Durango rt blacktop and it was my favorite vehicle I’ve ever owned. I had to trade it for a Tesla because I drive so much for work but what a great vehicle. It’s muscular enough to keep you entertained while being SUPER comfortable and spacious.
@@MrMashman93 I do. Obviously I miss the space, sound and comfort I had with the Durango but the Tesla has proven to be a very good car. I put over 40k on it in the first year. Charging is very cheap compared to gas, and the only time it has been “annoying” was on a 1600 mile road trip. Teslas are a very good everyday workhorse. They’re fast as hell, they’re intuitive, practical and reliable for excessive amounts of driving. That being said, if you only have a 10-15 mile daily commute, I don’t think they are worth it.
This is missing the orange brembos like the other orange packages get? Why is that.. I’d rather get the tow n go option for 6k it’s an amazing package racer x have you seen it ?
Mine has the orange Brembos, evidentally that is with the "tow n go" package......I did not know this when I bought it, just thought the brakes, track mode and active exhaust was better than the other one sitting there. Oh and AWD vs RWD, for just a $5000 difference. Glad I made that choice.
i still don't get why they made everything else kinda loud, accept for the 5.7 300S i like i had couple yrs ago. i was really dumbfounded when i went to test drive my 300S and there was absolutely no exhaust note, 100% quiet. i had to spend extra money to make it loud, with some Vibrant resonators/muffler delete.
I’ve always been a Fan of the SRT Durango! The Orange pkg isn’t for me:/. The step’s definitely need to hit something hard to give a really good reason to take ‘em the HELL OFF😂. Great upload once again brother👊🤘
My wife (not a car person) takes my rt plus charger every chance she gets. She now wants a Durango or grand Cherokee (as long as it has a hemi). Maybe she’s becoming a car person 😂
Recently bought a 2023 Ford Explorer Timberline for under $50k. I think Dodge has just been missing the mark with their 2023 lineup and how much more expensive they are than the competition.
Hell yeah! I have a 2021 Durango RT, Tow N Go which is all SRT except the engine. Check out my channel for mods I've done already. Next is Eibach springs and a 3.0 Whipple! 🏁🏁
Those step bars SUCK! They don’t go on a Durango. It’s not that high anyway. My dad has owned a couple R/T’s and they are very nice. The interior isn’t as fancy as others but it handles great and sounds great with the HEMI 😎
This guy is obviously gettting paid by dealerships to plug them and pitch option packages for dodge products. Probably has car salesman background, most of his videos i feel like im at the dealership being talked into buying a dodge
Love your videos. I like the durango but on this one those stripes should go bumper to bumper. Those running board's have got to go, they look stupid on the durango and have no use.

Saying the 3.6 and 5.7 is the same...is like saying the 392 and the hellcat are the same

I just picked up my 2023 DD orange package 🍊 three weeks ago.
These vehicles are truly remarkable 👍🏼
I can’t believe the dealer put those running boards on there!
Yea I took a 10hr road trip in a Durango RT and really enjoyed it
@6:06 that’s because my ‘16 Tahoe with chrome trim will run with this thing neck and neck. It looks meaner than it actually is. So people gravitate toward the higher trims.
I wish they put the 5.7 in the Wrangler with the 6M. A buddy of mine has an older Durango with the 5.7 and loves it!
That would be the best sensible SUV to get without being over ridiculous on horsepower. I like that package and the color also. Thanks Racer X for showing a good video of it. 😎👍
The perfect family sedan and engine of choice.

Hemi orange package looks great if the car is painted black. Not really feeling it on the white. Great review!
Oh no the running boards are awful!!
@Sox cylinder jeep I agree the step bar doesn't 'fit' the lines. A ground effect (think Rumblebee & Ram Daytona) would look soooo much better
Yes please remove them it takes away from the appearance of the vehicle
As a RT owner, you'd have to be seriously midget to need those to get on and out of one... Those on looks alone are a hard pass.

Great video, Racer X! The Durango? I suspect it will still be alive in the future, but powered with a Hurricane I6. Possibly HO options as well.
i got this 5.7 19 gc overland and im modding this thing out. this shit is top tier luxury and power
Great video. Love the hemi Orange. We have a 2022 Durango RT plus in destroyer grey. It is an awesome drive and the exhaust sound is amazing. It has plenty of power and is overall a great SUV! It’s my new daily driver. The scat pack still sits in the garage most of the time.
Can also add the tow and go package. Comes with orange Brembos and the srt exhaust and suspension.
Yeah, I really like the hemi orange package, I would love to have one of those, great video! Looks like those allergies are doing a little better👍🏻
I picked up the 23 Durango R/T+ Black Top AWD for my wife. I like it a lot better than the Hemi Orange
I do like the orange package and when I ordered my 2021 Dodge Durango RT. It coast me $62,600.00 and I don't have orange package
Traded in my 2017 r/t for 2023 R/T HO amd I'm in love. Soooo many more shiny things than my 2017 had. Now.. to figure out hoelw to get this Drag mode to work 😂
We've got a couple of these at our dealership. Got to play around with one the other. Very fun SUV
I'm glad I got the 5.7 at least I know I don't have to eat noodles and rice for the next 8 years
So basically a SXT with a V8 & suade-leather seats? No Turn signals on the side mirros, No led fog lamps, no LED Low Beam Aux next to the lowbeam?
It looks sporty and sounds good too.
Love the ❤Durango n the R/T
What do you think about the Durango RT Tow N Go? Can you review it?
Was that in Brandon? Wish I knew you were stopping by my Scat Pack was there for service a day ago.
I will be here quite a bit
By the way my daughter has an AWD R/T Durango and loved it.
We had an RT Durango as a rental for a few days, so much comfort on this car, very nice ride for daily driving and space. Been trying to get the girlfriend to get into one since I got the same orange package but in a Scat Challenger 😁.
What the best engine oil you recommend beside mopar pls let me know
I hate how only the SRT's come with the option to factory order 3rd row delete in exchange for the extra oddment boxes.

I like it! Appreciate the run down.
Durango is the best!! SRT is best bang for you buck though!! Love the orange package!!
My wife loves her RT durango.
Do you know if the Durango is coming back for the 24 year model?
What does a lease on this look like average
Did I miss the trunk room you didn't show it
I can’t remember the name right now, but a high ranking Dodge employee already said that the Dodge V8 will live in 2024, meaning that the Durango 5.7 and possibly even the 6.4 will live at least for another year.
Durango is the only SUV I'd even think about buying. When its gone, I doubt I'd look at another one ever.

Awesome content buddy 👍💪🔥
Does it have the hemi tick after a few thousand km.
X...do you know anything on the differential howling on challengers?
Around 40-45 mph... They talk about it on forums. Normal?
I like all the hemi orange models
Active exhaust?

About 84,000$ up here for that package with the big brakes.

Should make a video on the new last edition camaro
Anybody know why RacerX moved to Florida?
🍀He like swamp monsters 😆✌️
Is it middle size ?
They're mopar running boards they came with my 2016 Durango Citadel
Would be a nice package if they painted it Hemi Orange!
4500 Hemi orange package is a complete rip. Paying for a color?
Hey, RacerX
So wait rt hemi orange Durango no brembos but hemi orange charger gt has brembos
Tow N Go option gets the orange brembos, SRT wheels, track mode....etc etc.
My wife (not a car person) takes my rt plus charger every chance she gets. She now wants a Durango or grand Cherokee (as long as it has a hemi). Maybe she’s becoming a car person 😂
Brakes calipers should been paint in orange too
You would have to option it with the tow n go package to get Brembo breaks in orange with the srt wheels something I’m thinking about buying hopefully
@@emildeaton2434 go for itttttt
Tim at dodge said 2024 the Durango will still have the 5.7 and 6.4, just no hellcat in the Durango for 2024
It should have orange calibers.
The seats are different
Nice Paul!! My dream SVT is the Durango Cat sent to Hennessey performance!!
Recently bought a 2023 Ford Explorer Timberline for under $50k. I think Dodge has just been missing the mark with their 2023 lineup and how much more expensive they are than the competition.
Whoops I meant to say The Dodge Durango doesn't get the appreciation that it should.
I heard rumors that Dodge is going to keep this current Durango body style for another 13 years.
Hell yeah! I have a 2021 Durango RT, Tow N Go which is all SRT except the engine. Check out my channel for mods I've done already. Next is Eibach springs and a 3.0 Whipple! 🏁🏁
Ughh why doesn’t it have the orange brembos????
Where does anybody see orange. It's white

Nice vehicle but fuel economy sucks. Gas prices being what they are they are just too expensive for daily rides.
This guy is obviously gettting paid by dealerships to plug them and pitch option packages for dodge products. Probably has car salesman background, most of his videos i feel like im at the dealership being talked into buying a dodge
Ew nope. Even after spending $4500 on that package, id have to get the rest of the striping completed 😂😂
Omg ditch those running boards
Wtf is with those side steps.
Those sidesteps make it look ugly
Another generic review
This is the ugliest SUV I have ever seen. The orange stripe is out of place. The forged carbon fiber looks strange.
Love your videos. I like the durango but on this one those stripes should go bumper to bumper. Those running board's have got to go, they look stupid on the durango and have no use.
