Journeyman425

I've read that they are very popular in Canada. Not so much where Iive, but I like that - we won't see ourselves coming and going. The SUV of choice around here is the Grand Cherokee. I like it but the Journey is much closer to my 300M from a driving standpoint than the Jeep. Can't wait to get it. Due in any day at my dealership.

In what way was your paint treated and how did it affect the color or its brilliance?

Copper Pearl over Black...but I haven't seen it yet! Car is due in any day now. We have a Ram 1500 in Copperhead Pearl on our lot ( I work for a dealer) and love the truck in that color. Showed it to my wife and we both agreed that was the color to get. Side note: Paint Code PLB is called Copperhead Pearlcoat on everything else but the Journey. For the Journey it is simply called Copper Pearl Coat. No explanation!

Hi all - Have a new 2013 FWD Crew on order and due in any day now. Looking forward to driving it and checking out all that it comes with. This car is such a good deal. The level of equipment that it comes with for the price is truly amazing. I have a hard time understanding why they are not more popular than they are. Nice to see some good feedback on these pages.

Hi all - new to the forum today and maybe too late to answer questions, but here goes. 2013 Crew FWD is equipped with Touring suspension and Performance steering. AWD Crew has Performance suspension. R/T has High Performance suspension in either FWD or AWD trim. I work for a dealer and have not been able to find any technical descriptives on the differences between these levels. I have to assume that spring and shock rates increase progressively with each upgrade. I have a FWD Crew on order for myself which is due in to my store any day now. I myself did not realize that the AWD option added Performance suspension to the Crew. I might have been inclined to take AWD had I known prior. We don't sell a lot of Journeys ( small store) and I don't get to drive them too often but when I have I always thought they handled well. I'm very anxious to spend some time behind the wheel of our new one. I hope it does not ride too softy. I'll post a review after some wheel time.
