I was between the Journey and the Murano just this past week. Pulled the trigger on a 2010 Journey AWD SXT yesterday. Seems pretty close to the specs of the Murano when compared side to side, but the cost of future repairs scared me away from the Murano. That and I'm a loyal Dodge owner, coming from 2 Dakotas, 3 Rams, 2 Jeep Gr Cherokees and a Plymouth Breeze. Almost went Nissan, what was I thinking..Lol
