New From Houston Texas

[Lawdog1911]

Hello, My name is Ritch... I live in Cut N Shoot, Texas north of Houston.

I recently bought a 2011 Journey ( don't know which model though)

I really like it alot. I bought it because I really liked the 2012 my sister has since Dec 2012.

It has the 4 cylinder motor in it.

Hi Rich,

Welcome to the forum. From the pictures it looks like you have deep tinted glass and with the 4 cylinder it would be the SE plus. Enjoy your new ride!!!!!

A 2011 4 cyl would be an Express. The '11s had more standard options than the '12s such as tint, roof rack and LED tails. Mine is a twin to that one, same color. Inside it has the power driver seat, passenger seat folds flat, 3rd row & rear AC. Basically it's a Crew with the small engine... which works fine because the terrain around Houston is flat. Gets about 22-23 mpg commuting and 25-26 on the highway.

I bought it new- so far there have only been a couple of minor problems (AC charge, CD player died). And it's had a handful of computer flashes, which is something you may want to look into. It was also recalled for a rivet in the steering mechanism-- also something to look into. Otherwise this should be a pretty reliable workhorse.

Thanks for the info. Only thing I dont like is the bulging bumper corners out back. As for the CD player, I never even tried it, I will use the radio and Ipod, ipad, phone for music.

I got this second hand with 30k miles in it.
