About This 2018 Dodge Durango SXT Plus

At 121,180 miles, this 2018 Dodge Durango SXT Plus is well into its working life — and that's actually a testament to how well-built this platform is. The Durango is widely recognized for its ability to accumulate high mileage without major mechanical drama, particularly when it's been driven on highway miles, which is common for a three-row SUV used for family trips and daily commutes. Buyers in the Detroit area looking for a spacious AWD SUV at an attainable price point will find this Durango to be one of the most compelling options on the lot. The SXT Plus trim sits above the base SXT and adds meaningful upgrades that make everyday driving noticeably more comfortable.
 

2018 Dodge Durango Performance and Engine

Under the hood, this Durango is powered by the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine — one of the most celebrated V6 powerplants in the American market. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, this combination delivers around 295 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, giving the Durango confident acceleration whether you're merging onto I-94, navigating surface streets in Detroit, or heading out of the city for a weekend getaway.

The 8-speed automatic is a smooth, responsive unit that keeps the engine in its power band without hunting gears unnecessarily. AWD adds all-weather confidence — a genuine must-have for Michigan winters in Wayne County, where snow, slush, and ice are seasonal facts of life. This drivetrain setup also supports a towing capacity of up to 6,200 lbs when properly equipped, making it useful beyond just family hauling.
 

Dodge Durango SXT Plus Features and Interior

Three-Row Space and Comfort

The Durango's cabin is one of its strongest selling points. As one of the only true three-row SUVs built on a rear-wheel-drive-based platform (rather than a crossover unibody), it feels more substantial than most competitors. The SXT Plus trim adds features like heated front seats, a premium audio system, and an upgraded interior that goes beyond what the standard SXT delivers.
 

Technology and Convenience

Expect the Uconnect infotainment system — Dodge's user-friendly touchscreen interface — along with Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, and available navigation. The second row offers generous legroom, and the third row, while best suited for younger passengers, folds flat to open up serious cargo space when you need it. Dual-zone climate control keeps everyone comfortable regardless of where Michigan's weather is headed.
 

Dodge Durango Reliability and Ownership

The 2018 Dodge Durango has a solid ownership reputation, particularly around its powertrain. The 3.6L Pentastar V6 is one of the most widely used engines across Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge vehicles, meaning parts are widely available, mechanics know it well, and the maintenance ecosystem is affordable. Common ownership feedback points to the engine and transmission holding up well well past 100,000 miles with routine fluid changes and basic upkeep.

Owners do note that the infotainment system and some interior electronics can occasionally need attention at this mileage, and it's always worth a pre-purchase inspection on any used vehicle. Overall, buyers who keep up with oil changes, transmission service, and coolant flushes tend to get excellent longevity out of this platform. For a used AWD SUV in this price range, the Durango's ownership costs are very manageable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2018 Dodge Durango SXT Plus a good buy?

Yes — for buyers who need three rows, AWD, and strong towing capability at an accessible used-car price, the 2018 Durango SXT Plus is one of the better values in the segment. The Pentastar V6 and 8-speed transmission are proven, reliable units, and the SXT Plus trim adds comfort features that make daily driving genuinely enjoyable.
 

How many miles is too many on a 2018 Dodge Durango?

The 2018 Durango with the 3.6L V6 is well-known for lasting 200,000 miles or more with proper maintenance. At 121,180 miles, this vehicle is solidly mid-life — not worn out. A well-maintained example at this mileage can offer many more years of reliable service, especially in a daily driver or family hauler role.
 

What does the Durango SXT Plus trim include over the base SXT?

The SXT Plus package adds notable upgrades including heated front seats, enhanced interior materials, and additional technology and convenience features. It's the step-up configuration within the SXT family that brings the Durango closer to mid-tier GT territory without the full price jump.
 

Is AWD worth it on a used Dodge Durango in Michigan?

Absolutely. Michigan winters in the Detroit area and across Wayne County regularly bring snow, ice, and freezing rain. An AWD Durango provides meaningful added traction and stability in those conditions compared to a rear-wheel-drive-only setup. For buyers planning to keep the vehicle year-round, AWD is a worthwhile feature.
 

What should I inspect on a used 2018 Dodge Durango?

Key areas to check include the transmission fluid condition, coolant system, front differential (given the AWD system), brake condition, and any signs of deferred maintenance. Have a trusted mechanic or shop perform a pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle's condition. At this mileage, a clean service history is a strong positive indicator.
