Bay Driver

Don’t miss Dodge’s versatility and value While Sideline Sid has been on a myriad of journeys in his lifetime, on a beautiful Western Bay Friday during autumn he went on a journey like no other.

provided in the second row of seats with two in-floor storage bins designed to keep up to 12 cans of soft drinks on ice. The bins also feature latching lids and removable, washable liners for extra convenience.

Versatility is the name of the game with the Dodge Journey here are various seating combinations possible, which allow second and third row seats to recline for comfort, or fold flat for added cargo space.

Third row access is easy thanks to a onehand, one-motion operation of the second row Tilt N Slide seat.

With a full complement of seven passengers the rear cargo trunk offers hidden from view storage. Getting items in and out is easy with a rear liftgate that opens up out of the way.

In expected North American style there is a strong emphasis on safety. Electronic Stability Control, All Speed Traction Control, Four-Wheel

Anti-Lock Brake System and a full set of next generation air bags provide optimum safety.

However, the two Dodge Journey safety features that took the reviewer’s eye were the Active Head Restraints – a safety item that can help reduce the severity of neck injuries – and, the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System.

Saving the best to last, the Dodge Journey is outstanding value for money with the SXT currently on sale for a tad under $40,000. A completely unscientific consumer test of half a dozen people had an average price guess of $60,000.

The Dodge Journey’s classy style, coupled with the vehicles versatility and outstanding value for money, makes the USA designed vehicle a must see for all in the market for a seven-seater family wagon.
