Dodge Nitro 2010Change

Have owned the car for roughly over 1 month now, and drive around 120km each day commuting to work and back.

I haven't had the chance to test in snow/ice, but in hard rain and wheel deep mud (yes, I take it off road for some fun) it handles with superiority. I drive it in 2 wheel drive (RWD) and switch it to AWD when needed.

The ride is very smooth, and despite being a 'tank' it handles like a hatchback. My trim came with a hard-drive which enables me to save songs, movies, and pictures.

I bought it used with 88,000km, and it has almost 100,000km on it and no issues (knock on wood).

Mileage is around 11.5l/100km on hwy and around 13l/100km in city.

It's a 3.7L V6, so don't expect a hybrid fuel economy.

It's so roomy on the inside, that my Bernese Mt. Dog and Jack Russell have ample space to play in the back with the back seats down folding flat!.

If you want an SUV with opportunity for anything, and looks that will last for decades, get the Nitro!

The Nitro is a great mid size SUV and facilitated all my needs since the time I bought it. I kept it clean and simple in its style points but accented it with tint and rims. I recommend that anyone in the market for a SUV of this size and trim package look into a Nitro.

I really like my Dodge Nitro other than the fuel mileage which never really got any better since we bought it. Otherwise, the 4x4 on the fly is awesome, no slipping all over the side roads for me anymore! Plus it cruises really nice on the HWY which is when the gas comsumption is actually not bad.

This is great vehicle! It is every day family car. Coming from 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser the fuel economy is way better- almost double. We would never look for other SUV, but my wife could not get use to the RWD. So now we want to sell it and get a 4x4 or AWD SUV to fit the toddler, stroller and large dog.
