Rented a Dodge Journey yesterday and drove it from JFK to Philly. It was a great ride. It's not the best looking SUV on the road but it's very smooth, quiet and very snappy. I don't know what's under the hood but it sure pulled like a 6. Not bad for something that gets very little press.

I had a 2011 great ride 3.6 pentastar is a great motor but thats about it the Jorney reviews are at the botton end of other list of others in the same category.

I have never let "reviews" determine my purchases. I owned two Dakotas over a 15 year period and couldn't be happier. They were routinely panned.
Well then take it from someone who works on cars for a living...(over 37 yrs) .Dodge Journey, Jeep Patriot and Compass...these things are junk. See them all the time still under warranty falling apart. You can drive one around the block and just feel and hear how cheap they are. We have a Journey in the shop right now that is going back to Dodge for warranty repairs. Power window master switch inop, a/c vents broken, oil leak, rear wiper inop. Under 31k miles. Throwaway car.
It's funny... I see "I just want a cheap, basic car with a lot of motor" all the time.
Then when someone actually makes it everyone bags on it... it's crap, doesn't have this, doesn't do that.
Whatever. If the OP likes it, that's great! I wouldn't buy one myself, but I can see the attraction of such a vehicle.
My friend recently bought a Journey and he's very happy with it.
I have a Jeep, and Jeeps are frequently panned. But I see many old ones out on the road, and on the trail. Mine has the Diesel engine and I want 500,000 miles out of her. Car reviews can be political.

This! I want the world - for low bid. Champagne taste on a Pabst budget.
I just saw one of those "Ten Worst Cars" lists the other day, and the Journey was one of them.
Probably the 4-banger. Yuck.
Having almost 300hp should keep the GT off any such lists, build quality be damned.
