The Dodge Journey
anyone else have one? or know someone one who has one? or is looking at buying one?
this is THE car for a guy who has kids, needs a family car, but still wants a really nice, fast car.
we have a 2009 dodge journey R/T AWD with the 3.5VVL engine. boy, this thing is FAST and handles like a dream. its got a sport suspension from the factory and 19" rims with low profile tires.
the best part of the car is the VVL(like vtec on a honda). for those who dont know what it is, it stands for variable valve lift. when the engine gets over 5k rpm, a hydraulically activated, larger intake lobe on the camshaft is activated and you get a sudden increase in horsepower. it throws you into your seat, and rips you up to about 80, where is increases speed fast, but without the G forces.
not trying to advertise or brand bash, but ive been driving this car for the past 3 days while im waiting for a tire for my truck. if i had the 45k for the fully loaded RT my dad has, id buy it. if your a guy with a family but want a nice car, look at this car.
heres ours. the rims were shiny before i drove it.
