A mid-size crossover SUV, the Dodge Journey came out in 2009 and was discontinued after 2020. In that year, only two models were offered: the SE Value Edition and the Crossroad. Earlier versions consisted of three including the GT.
Shopping Early
The 2020 Dodge Journey was restricted in several ways from its predecessors. Most notable was the choice of engine. Instead of a more powerful V-6 option, its powertrain was only a V-4. This makes the earlier models, particularly those from 2015 to 2019 inclusive, more desirable to many.
Many of the positive qualities remained the same. These included:
• Low price
• User-friendly and simple infotainment system
• Roomy interior
• Smooth ride
• Plenty of cubbies and obvious cargo space
• Easy to maneuver in and out of traffic
• Ranks high in overall safety
However, when looking at used Dodge Journeys in Wichita KS, be sure to consider the condition of each available model. Although the Journey is known for its reliability, make sure a competent mechanic certifies it and/or go through a qualified and reliable Dodge car dealership. This will reduce any instances of purchasing a potential lemon.
Why Choose a Dodge Journey?
The Journey has always been a practical car. Classified as such, it is both functional and affordable. Although the last models eliminated the more powerful powertrain, those before 2020 do offer you the V-6 option. Overall, the easily configured cabin and the easy-to-use infotainment system combine with the price tag to attract all those with a constrained budget across America, from Wichita KS to Seattle WA.
