The Chrysler Group truly made a name for themselves at the 2013 Texas Truck Rodeo in San Antonio. And, we aren’t just talking about a handful of models taking home awards; we are talking about 15 out of the 24 models 15 went to the Chrysler Group.
One model that we were super excited about was the 2014 Dodge Durango which earned the title as the full-size SUV of Texas by the critics at the Texas Auto Writers Association.
During this two day event both on and off-roading vehicles compete for the twenty-four "of Texas" titles. Numerous factors are taken into account to determine who the titles are awarded to. Factors include vehicle design, practicality, value and in-car technology.
The Dodge Durango was praised by the judges, including the SUV’s best-in-class towing capability. For the past three years the Dodge Durango has been powered by one of Ward's Auto's 10 Best Engines, a 3.6-L Pentastar V6. Furthermore, the SUV features a brand new, standard 8-speed automatic transmission. Together the Durango is able to attain a class-leading driving range (more than 600 miles), and an impressive fuel-economy of up to 25 mpg on the highway.
