Interesting that the 07 had the HP. My 2004 Durango that I traded, as well as my 08 Aspen, both have Wrangler SR-A tires. They've been great. I have family members that have them on trucks as well, with zero problems. Maybe Chrysler experimented with a cheaper tire, and then went back to the SR-A after complaints. Or maybe it's a function of the wheel size chosen. Did you have the 20 inch wheels on yours?

I just got home from purchasing a used 2007 Aspen, found it online and drove 4 hours each way to another state to get it. The drive home was perfect. I have to read the owners manual to familiarize myself with it better though. I am interested in the mudflaps if you can let me know what you're asking for them?
As far as being disappointed in your vehicle, I hope you have better luck with your Mercedes than I did with mine...it was a money pit. I bought it because of the German-built reputation but it had one thing after another go wrong with it and I will warn you, Mercedes figures that if you can afford the initial high $$$ investment of purchasing their car, then you can afford the outrageous cost for parts and service you'll be needing. For example, I asked if there was anything they could do to tighten up the passenger visor because it would continually droop down. They said they'd have to order a visor assembly at the cost of nearly $300 (for ONE simple visor!!) I politely told the dapper gentleman, "No thanks. I'll use duct tape" and smiled at his horrified expression! (no I didn't use duct tape but the comment was worthwhile!)
I just returned a leased Nissan Quest that was a candidate for the Lemon Law. It was my first and last Nissan (which must be Japanese for "sucker!"). I have owned 3 Mazdas, which I liked, 2 Honda's which I LOVED and still miss my '87 Honda Civic (had over 200,000 miles and hubby made me sell it...ya just couldn't kill that darlin'!), a PT Cruiser (loved the style but not much else), two Chevy's, a Mercury, a '98 Dodge Ram 1500 for my teenage son and two Durangos. (plus the Mercedes I mentioned). To be perfectly honest, these days unfortunately there is no sure fire way to find quality in a brand name, you will find "lemons" in every brand out there. I'm keeping a positive attitude about my newest addtion to our automobile family and hoping for the best. I'm so happy I found this forum!
