Netcowboy Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Last week-end I put money down on a 2011 Dodge Journey LUX with all the options. They told me 5 to 8 weeks before it arrived from the factory. I am very excited and nervous all at the same time. Can anyone tell me if I made a good decision? I turned in a 2006 Scion xB and a 2008 smart fortwo. Does the Journey get better gas mileage than the window sticker says? Are there any "secrets" I should know about my new Journey? Has anyone added any other options, like the Internet "HotSpot" unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windancer Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Does the Journey get better gas mileage than the window sticker says? You may or may not get a rude awakening when it comes to gas mileage. You can click "My Fuelly Logo" at the bottom of this post to see mine. As you can see I have a fully loaded up 2010 R/T and I have a best of 33 mpg (Imp.) to a low of close to 15 mpg (Imp.). While I don't "baby" my car, gas mileage is important to me. IMHO I don't think you can come very close to those EPA estimates on the sticker. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurojet Posted March 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 i have only put on 800kms since i bought it and my first tank I got roughly 560kms little dissappointing since it is the same engine as the Cherokee and durango, and they are boasting 1000kms (i know it is a bigger tank) The only fault i can say so far is the 6 speed (my neighbour bought one the same week and we both feel the same ) I find the tranny shifts very hard (not very smooth when shifting) and I find it gets confused when downshifting and when I go up the hill it seems to want to stay in the gear it is in and not down shift Like i said this is the onyl fauly but it really bothering me (i feel there should be a TSB to fix the issue) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
