2011 Dodge Durango Spy Shot.

Chrysler has been slowly releasing the full details about the 2011 Dodge Durango, and while many other have already seen the exterior from many angles, the interior has only been revealed in teaser images... until now. What you see in the following picture is the first shot of the all-new Durango's interior, and if its Jeep Grand Cherokee sister is anything to base judgments on, things should be pretty cozy inside the full-size Dodge.

Satisfied Customer

The following letter is from a satisfied customer that truly enjoyed his experience at our dealership.

Tony,

Good afternoon and I hope you’re doing well.

Just a quick msg. to thank you for your teams effort yesterday (in closing on the 2010 Challenger).

I was concerned since my contact (prior to arriving at the dealer) was out sick, but having you personally involved from the start made me very comfortable. From there, the entire sales process from test drive to completing financing was detailed, comprehensive and consultative. This was much appreciated.

My goals were to get a competitive price on the vehicle I wanted, make sure all the (aftermarket) options I wanted were bundled into the final price and to have a good experience with the people. Rarely in life, do even easy things go well. The positive interaction with your team, cleanliness of the dealership offices interior waiting area and ability to get everything bundled together made this a positive experience.

Expect enjoyment pictures via email from my new (gassed up and cleaned) 2010 Challenger within 60 seconds of taking the keys later this week.

Regards,

Adam M.

So stop wasting your time at the other dealerships and stop by Planet Dodge Chrysler Jeep and visit us today and enjoy the same experiece Adam did.

Chrysler 300C with Viper V10 engine

This next video appeared on the North American automaker's YouTube channel during the weekend, and it features a Chrysler 300C powered by a Dodge Viper V10 engine.

The video description asks 'What happens when you put a Viper engine into a Chrysler 300?' and considering that this is pretty much a rhetorical question we're expecting the automaker to release some performance figures soon.

Watch the video with the Viper V10 powered Chrysler 300C after the jump.

How do I know if my vehicle really needs new shock absorbers?

You need new shocks (and/or struts) if your original shocks (or struts) are worn out, damaged or leaking. Leaking is easy enough to see (just look for oil or wetness on the outside of the shock or strut) as is damage (broken mount, badly dented housing, etc.). But wear is often more of a subjective thing to judge. There are also instances where the original equipment shocks may not be worn, damaged or leaking, but may not be adequate for the job they're being asked to do. In such cases, upgrading the suspension with stronger, stiffer or some type of special shock (or strut) may be recommended to improve handling, for trailer towing, hauling overloads or other special uses.

Shocks and struts do not require replacing at specific mileage intervals like filters or spark plugs, but they do wear out and eventually have to be replaced. How long a set of original equipment shocks will last is anybody's guess. Some original equipment shocks may be getting weak after only 30,000 or 40,000 miles. Struts usually last upwards of 50,000 or 60,000 miles.

A "bounce test" is still a valid means of checking the dampening ability of shocks and struts. If the suspension continues to gyrate more than one or two times after rocking and releasing the bumper or body, your shocks or struts are showing their age and need to be replaced.

Another option is stopping by Planet Dodge Chrysler Jeep and letting our certified mechanics look at your vehicle.

Either way you decide we want you to be safe and protect your investment. Weak shocks and struts won't necessarily create a driving hazards if you continue to drive on them, but there are studies that show worn shocks increase the distance it takes to stop a vehicle on a rough surface. Increased body sway due to weak shocks or struts can also increase the risk of skidding on wet or slick surfaces.

2011 Dodge Charger

Chrysler is showing off its next big renovation: the 2011 Dodge Charger. The fastback sedan gets its first makeover since being introduced.

The most distinctive change is the rounded "Coke bottle" sides and a new rear end and wraparound taillights, featuring 164 LEDs.

The new rear of the Dodge Charger features 164 LED lights in the tail.

The car keeps its sinister look, or at Chrysler Group calls it, the "attack-the-road face." Charger gets a lower hood line, canted windshield and radically raked back.
