Title: dodge nitro Post by: WA1GFZ on December 02, 2007, 05:25:28 PM Just picked up my rental SUV dodge nitro. WHAT A HUNK OF SH!X. I'll love driving that crap box to N.Y. Might be nice if I was 5 feet tall and 75 pounds. Seat is like sitting on a plywood bench.
No head room Seat is way too high Sounds like a crap box motor Runs ok All kinds of blind spots. don't buy this crap box Title: Re: dodge nitro Post by: WD8BIL on December 03, 2007, 09:14:14 AM OK Frank, thanks for the heads-up.

Title: Re: dodge nitro Post by: N5RLR on December 04, 2007, 04:09:16 AM WTF is Dodge Nitro? This. [click] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Nitro) ;) * * * * * * * * * * Speaking of rentals, I'd a Dodge D1500 crewcab pickup for a couple of days last month while my car was in the shop. The behemoth had everything but GPS and a wet bar. Smooth 4.7L V8 [barely felt it], plenty of oomph...and it drank like a fish. Nice, but too rich for my blood. ;D Title: Re: dodge nitro Post by: WA1GFZ on December 04, 2007, 11:07:41 AM my Silverado 5.3 gets 20 MPG with good gas on a trip....and it hit 100K Sunday runs like a top and gets fresh Mobile One every 5K A battery and a brake job in 100K not bad.

Nitro was like sitting on a 2X8 for a seat. Must have been designed for a 5 foot person with a hitler complex. Seat was way too high even bottomed out. Ran ok but only got about 20 MPG. The only way you can get into it without hitting your head is to climb in on all fours then sit up. |
