How reliable is a Dodge Durango?

I want to upgrade our family car to an SUV, and I’ve been considering the Dodge Durango. Do these cars reliably last for a long time? I’ve never owned a Dodge before so I’m not sure what to expect.

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
The
Dodge Durango
 has a decent reliability rating, especially when compared to other full-size SUVs on the market right now. It also has an average annual repair cost of $675, meaning it has average ownership costs.
The Dodge Durango usually lasts from 200,000 to 250,000 miles if properly maintained, so the Durango could also last your family for quite a while. Since most people in the U.S. drive 15,000 miles per year, that means that the Durango could easily last you for 13 to 16 years, or until some of your kids are old enough to start driving.
When you do get a new SUV, that will be a great opportunity to update your
car insurance
 policy. Check out the

 app, where you can see a list of policy quotes that work for you in minutes. The average user saves $887 per year.

Should I invest my $40,000 or pay off my car loan?
"I have $40,000 saved up, and I also have a car loan for $25,000 at 3.5% interest. I was thinking of paying off my car loan, but I can probably make more than 3.5% by investing. What should I do?"
