Yes sir it is. However I replaced it this last year. Here are the two of them together for the short amount of time I had 2! Sold the cream colored 1990 and kept the 2002 Yellow one. Great bikes! the other is me at the Woodward Dream cruise last August.

The older you get, the longer the list. Too many for me to think about. I wrote out a list about 10 years ago or so and there were about 45 cars on it. Of course we've been a 2 car household for 30+ years they add up.

But i still need to get back home. Will mileage be better, worse, or the same?

from Warren MI to Cherokee Village AR. 760 miles in 12 hours, 16.7 mpg. I'll take it!

The only badge I remove is the dealers badging. If they don't give me a separate discount for having their dealers name on the back (and no one ever has), I remove it immediately. Back in '05 I had a new F150 I took in to the dealer for a check up and when I got it back they had removed my custom license plate frame and replaced it with their dealer promotional frame. I noticed it immediately and asked where my custom frame was. They had put it inside the truck. I made them remove their frame and re-install mine immediately. I was pissed and the service manager could tell I was actually holding back. He apologized profusely. I did not accept the apology. I was a hard ass..... LOL!

Per Journeyman425 -"you need to add the appropriate sales code to your build sheet options so that when you return to the dealership, all they will have to do is reconfigure your vehicle on their computer so the new sales code is picked up. That will enable power to the trailer tow wiring harness. A reconfiguration, or restoration, is much like restarting your home PC after a major update. The updates don't take effect until the computer is restarted. Same general idea here. A restoration takes about 10 minutes to do, and your selling dealer should be able to do it for you" Check the thread below about the 2014 crossroad.

I finally got off my butt and hooked my trailer up to the Journey, the lights work great! LED's on the car, LED's on the trailer working in unison!

ezyb, When you have them do the reconfigure they may still tell you it won't work and that it DID NOT work. The dealer I went to did. But they were on after the reconfigure. The service guy drove it out after the reconfigure and parked it, I watched him and saw that they were on, he came in and told me it didn't work, no DRLs. But I saw they were on. Guy had a priceless look when he realized how wrong he was.

The only thing that has bugged me a little about the Journey is the seemingly long step out when exiting. The door threshold seems very wide. I can see getting dirty pants very easily during the salty winter months here in MI.

Thanks again, I plan on having a hitch installed with the wiring at a U-haul, will I need to have the code put in mine and do another reconfigure to get my trailer lights working? This is my old car pulling the max weight I will pull with the Journey -

Update - Slightly humorus.... I took my Journey (can't seem do get to calling it a "DJ") in to the dealer for the new fob programming. They did that and cut the key insert. I asked them to do the reconfiguration/restoration and they said sure, they could do that what kind of problems am I having? I said "none really, but I haven't had the car long and I just want it done and it should activate the DRLs. Shop manager said "that won't work, DRLs are only on Canidian models" I said well, it's supposed to be in the system and I want to have it done to see if it works. He said OK. and they did it. I saw them back out of the garage and got up to see the front when he pulled it around and the DRLs WERE ON!! He parked it and came back in and said "it didn't work, the DRLs won't work." I looked at him and said "do you realize when you pulled it out that they were on?" He said "they were?" I said yup, you guys should check out the Dodge Journey forums, said thank you and left. LOL! Multi kudos to Journeyman425! Awesome.

you are too kind sir! Most appreciated.

Hey, this is awesome, could you add that code to mine? The DRLs are not working and I made sure they were turned on in the dash settings. Mine is a 2012, last 8 is CT255668. I'm taking it to a dealer Saturday for a key programming. Got 19400 miles on it.
