Thanks. I also found a 2014 Journey SE with the 19 inch rims. It's in my favorite color (copperhead) and it only has 3000 miles on it. The dealer has it listed at $18500 but they offered me $6200 for trade on my Sienna.
I joined this forum a few years ago when I purchased a 2010 Journey SXT AWD in Deep Water Blue. It was a beautiful vehicle, I NEVER had a problem with it mile after mile. I planned on keeping it forever, however life had a different plan for me. In May of 2013 a family member suddenly died leaving us in a huge bind. It was either keep the Dodge Journey or keep our home. I unfortunately fell 4 months behind, fearing repossession I took the Journey to the credit union and handed them the keys. The credit union even commented on how beautiful the Journey was and thanked me for taking it to them in pristine condition. I had to file bankruptcy a week later.
I have moved on and rebuilt myself, I made the mistake of purchasing a 2009 Toyota Sienna in place of another Journey. This Sienna has made me miserable, it refuses to be reliable and at 126000 miles it needs $3500 to pass PA inspection. I have decided that enough is enough and refuse to put another penny in this Sienna. I went car shopping today and found a very nice 2009 Dodge Journey R/T AWD that is black.
The dealer is giving me $4000 for my Sienna and I currently owe $6890. The Journey is priced at $13900 and has 71000 miles on it. The Journey is loaded with moonroof, MYGIG, RES, leater, heated seats, and third row seating. I'm hoping it's a good decision, I have read that the 2009's have problems. I hoping I can get the same service from it that I got from my 2010 that had more miles on it. I also got a much better interest rate then I have on the Sienna.
Is there anything I should look out for on the 2009 Journeys?
