  1. Hey RT Man - good to see you too. I know I've been scarce on these pages but I still love my DJ. 155K miles, recently put four shocks and new Michelins all around, just did the exhaust cam on the front cylinder bank for the cam and lifter tick, and it runs smooth and silent once again  - until three weeks ago when it got hit yet again. This is the third time in the bodyshop ( it got hit twice in two weeks several years ago and we combined those two repairs) and it's being repaired yet again. But we still love it and have no plans to sell or trade it.

    Congrats on the new topper, I'm sure it will serve you well.  Post back your impressions once you've fully utilized it.  I've been considering one of those for vacations but only bough the collapsible bag tote for the top so far.  I'd be interesting in hearing how the hard topper works out for you.

    Thanks Steven. It turned out to be the perfect extra space that we needed. We wanted to move my oldest son home from school together as a family which meant keeping part of the middle seat up. If it were just myself I probably wouldn't have needed the carrier as we could have used the entire rear of the vehicle for cargo. We used the carrier for the soft stuff like clothing, soft suitcases, pillows and bedding - anything that could be squished and folded, basically. The bulky items went in the back. It was tight but it all fit, and the four of us made the trip together so for that reason alone it was worth it.

  3. Sure looks good! I remember when you got it! I did the same thing today - waxed and detailed my Journey. I was going to park it in the same spot that I first photographed it nearly four years ago ands see if anyone can tell the difference!

  4. Make sure you reset your fuel economy average when you fill the tank. The 437 mile value is based upon that 30.8 MPG average. The pic is sort of misleading. I reset it at my last fuel fill about 15 miles prior to the photo, and drove without having to stop at about 45 mph so yes, the economy number would be artificially high at that point. In the warm weather months we average about 24 MPG per tank. I reset it after every fill up. If you had a problem with the with the fuel pump module/level sensor assembly, it would illuminate the check engine light. If it is not on, then your system is working normally.

  5. I think that's a very tasteful, sporty update to the look of your Journey - really underscores the Dodge image. I would also love to see pics of your Turbo Trans Am - that's a 20th Anniversary car, isn't it? It has the GTA look with a modified Buick GNX drivetrain, correct?
