You don't have to get chrome. It's common knowledge that there are "options". Who passes on a car/truck because of the rim finish? A dumbass, thats who.

Does anyone know if the Durango is based on the new Jeep Grand Cherokee platform?

Wow, FUGLY, I wonder what this pig weighs, and are those still iron engine blocks? Good old Dodge, never really changing.

Regardless of weight that Hemi 5.7L engine made Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 2003 through 2007, and once again in 2009. I don't think that making a feather weight car was one of their goals. And as the old adage goes, "If it aint broke, dont fix it!" Plus when you start experimenting too much you end up with things like heat shields attached with adhesive that burns cars to the ground. I think this vehicle is perfectly designed and executed to target it's intended demographic. And as such it will sell just fine.

Also, won't this cannibalize the Grand Cherokee and the other way around ?

Very good looking SUV. Definately a step up from the Aspen, that thing was terrible. Though it's not as good looking as the Aztek. (sarcasm so strong that it made my nipples bleed)

I doubt it will be exported to Europe. Besides, American carmakers have never presented export models to the domestic press, at least not since the 1982 Camaro Z28-E.

Will quality of engineering and assembly be above the usual American standard? What about endurance in a hot and dry cliamte?

What's the American standard? Do you mean the Chrysler/Dodge standard? Because I'm not sure you've been reading quality reports at all, but Ford is conquering them lately.
Not sure about this car, though. I've never trusted Chrysler and I doubt I will now.

???? Almost all manufacturers bring there cars to Death Valley for hot weather testing. The temps there have been recorded to go up to 134 degrees. American manufacturers have been using this place for years, they let the vehicles idle for hours in an enclosure that blocks any breeze. So it goes without saying that yes, it can handle the hot temperatures. Unless maybe you live in Dallol, Ethiopia. But there are no roads there just camels so don't worry.

It is American and should not be any deferent than other models shipped to your area where it is hot.

Andres2007, My experience with Ford cars has been less than pleasant reliability wise. At one point I was wondering if Ford had been exporting assembly line rejects to the Gulf. As for Chrysler products, they seem to have benefited somewhat from the infusion of Mercedes engineering, but that?s behind them now.
B M Gearhead, I'm not sure your tone is appropriate

I'm not sure what you mean by tone. I was just giving reference to what most manufacturers in the States do as a part of development. And Dallol currently holds the record high average temperature for an inhabited location. I got that straight from Wikipedia, no insult insinuated. Check it out yourself.

Notice I didn't say or imply that Ford has traditionally been a high-quality manufacturer; I said that their latest models are topping Honda and Toyota (long-time staples of build quality) in the most recent studies. That means they've listened and made improvements and it is unfair to put them under the tired, overused stereotype that all American cars are of bad quality.
Cheers.

wow the front looks prety cool. I like it. But the back looks like the one from the old X5

This vehicle is most likely the last and best product of the DaimlerChrysler merger. The platform was co-developed by Mercedes Benz and is a mechanical twin of the new Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Mercedes ML SUV...so it has a much higher standard than what Daimler produced with Chrysler before the dissolution of the merger.

The problem is only in the back as it looks too japanese as Toyota Fortuner (silly name, but really make money)/Hilux SUV version. It should be more creative than this plain design

Andres2007
I actually really like this car's looks (the only thing I'm not crazy about is the Japanese-looking rear end). It is incredibly better-looking than the vehicle it replaces, which was probably my least favorite big SUV of the decade in terms of looks. I hope the quality improves as well.

That's THE CAR... And nothing else matters, even rear-end like Toyota Sienna... I love american way of cars, despite I live in jealous Europe. Greetings!

Looks so much better than the old one. Unlike the new explorer this is still an american suv like it should be, not a highed up hatchback.
