The Dodge Durango continues to occupy a space no other SUV truly challenges: three-row practicality infused with genuine muscle-car attitude. For 2026, Dodge doubles down on what makes the Durango special—real engines, real towing capability, and performance you can feel from the driver’s seat. For drivers in Alexandria, VA, this is an SUV built for daily life that refuses to be ordinary.

This is performance-car output in a three-row SUV, capable of acceleration figures that embarrass many sports cars. Best-in-Class Towing Capability The Durango continues to lead its segment when real towing matters. Properly equipped with the available Tow N Go Package, V8-powered Durango models can tow up to 8,700 lbs.—best in class for a midsize SUV. Tow N Go adds serious hardware, including Brembo® performance brakes, an electronic limited-slip rear differential, performance-tuned suspension, and upgraded cooling systems. The result is confidence under load, not just a big number on paper—ideal for boats, campers, and trailers common around the Potomac region. Interior Design: Performance Meets Practicality Inside, the 2026 Durango balances aggression with comfort. The driver-focused cockpit centers around the available 10.1-inch Uconnect® 5 touchscreen, angled toward the driver for intuitive access. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ come standard, keeping the cabin modern and connected. Seating flexibility remains a Durango strong point, with room for up to 7 passengers and over 50 seating configurations. Available second-row captain’s chairs create a more upscale feel while improving third-row access. Higher trims elevate the experience further with available Laguna leather seating, forged carbon fiber accents, and suede-style headliners, giving the Durango an interior that feels purpose-built rather than generic. Safety and Driver Assistance The 2026 Durango is equipped with a comprehensive suite of available driver-assistance technologies designed to support—not distract—the driver. Standard features include Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection, particularly useful in tight parking environments and busy Alexandria traffic. Available systems include Forward Collision Warning with Full Stop and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop, which can bring the vehicle to a complete halt in congestion and reduce fatigue on longer drives.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Almost every system in your Chrysler requires electricity, and this means electrical problems can lead to a wide variety of additional car troubles if they're not speedily repaired. Fortunately, your Chrysler dealer has expert technicians who can repair any possible problem. These are some of the possible electrical issues that we can repair. 3 Electrical Problems You Should Always Fix at Your Chrysler Dealership Corroded Ground Wires Electricity works in a circuit, so the wire that carries electricity to a system must also be able to return it to its source. The electrical system in your car uses live wires and ground wires, as opposed to the wiring in your house, which also includes a neutral wire. Ground wires in your car connect the car body to enable the circuit to complete. As time passes, ground wires can become corroded due to water or mud. This corrosion blocks the flow of electricity back to its source and will cause the affected electrical component to fail. If part of the electrical fails for no apparent reason, corrosion could be the cause of the problem. Our technicians will trace the electrical connections and clean or replace any corroded ground wires they find. Blown Fuses Each electrical component has a fuse that protects its connected component against shorts or other rogue electrical charges. If a fuse receives more electricity than it's designed to, it will immediately blow. The blown fuse blocks access to its connected component, which protects the component against electrical damage. A blown fuse also prevents the component from working until the fuse is replaced. If a fuse overloads and blows, sensors in the engine will identify the situation and inform your computer. The computer logs the blown fuse and illuminates the check battery light on the dash. We'll check the fuses and replace any damaged ones. Once a fuse is replaced, its connected component will work correctly again. Failing Alternator The alternator is a mini electrical generator that produces power for your car's systems. As an alternator ages, it will produce less power than it previously did. This decline is unavoidable, as worn alternator parts will reduce its speed. When the alternator reaches the point that it can't produce sufficient power for all the systems, your computer has to allocate the limited electricity supply to components that need it the most. Allocating limited power can mean taking electricity from other systems, and this will cause them to temporarily shut down. Your battery warning light will immediately illuminate when the alternator can't supply enough power. We can test your alternator and install a new one if the original is failing. Problems in the electrical system get worse if they're not repaired. If you are experiencing any electrical issues with your Chrysler, contact us ASAP at Ourisman CDJR of Alexandria in Alexandria, VA.

Since 2009, the Ram 1500 has been one of the most popular, capable, and rugged trucks on American roads. Fans of the brand could brag that nothing needed changing over the past year and even critics would agree. However, the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 sets a benchmark in its fifth generation. Loaded with interior comfort, tech features, new looks, and raw power, the Ram 1500 builds upon its past to create a "super truck." With all its features and amenities, the 2019 Ram 1500 has more to love than ever. Improved Capability Thanks to the addition of the new eTorque system and the fine-tuning of its two available engines, the 2019 Ram 1500 has the power to make its competitors envious. The standard engine is a brawny 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 that's good for 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. With this at the helm, you can pull up to 7,730 pounds, providing ample power for work or leisure. more Upper trims sport a 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 that dishes out 395 horsepower and up to 410 pound-feet of torque. This increases its towing capacity to a best-in-class 12,750 pounds, giving the Ram 1500 the upper hand in the segment. While these powerful numbers are striking, one of the most interesting features of the 2019 Ram 1500 is its eTorque technology. The eTorque system uses a 48-volt battery pack to function as both an alternator and hybrid system. It helps charge the car battery while adding a boost to the gasoline-powered engine. Surprisingly, this technically makes the Ram 1500 a hybrid vehicle while adding a ton of torque at low speeds (130 pound-feet of torque on the HEMI and 90 pound-feet of torque on the Pentastar). For towing, crawling, and off-roading, eTorque is a welcome feature. Sleek Styling To compete with the big boys of the American pickup industry, a truck needs more than just power. It needs eye-catching style. In 2019, the Ram 1500 achieves this with a mix of form and function. A sculpted body is sure to turn heads courtesy of standard features such as an aggressive grille, a dual exhaust, a sculpted hood, and sleek LED headlights. Depending on the trim, you get a set of 18- to 22- inch wheels and your choice of up to 11 striking exterior paint colors. All-New Tech Features Another amazing update to the 2019 Ram 1500 is the influx of high-tech features. With arguably the longest list of tech amenities in the pickup sector, the Ram 1500 feels as much like a truck as it does a luxury vehicle. At the center of the upgrades is a class-exclusive 12-inch touch screen that allows you to navigate your favorite apps and music through the Uconnect infotainment system. Some of the other top features include Apple CarPlay, Sirius XM satellite radio, a 19-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system, a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, and a navigation system. The Ram 1500 is already a household name, but with several upgraded amenities, hot looks, and more capability than ever, the 2019 edition has a lot to love. 2019 Ram 1500 with ICI Stainless Rocker Panel Kit via Flickr by truckhardware.
