  A Little Less Luxury - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By LINDA - June 15 - 11:23 pm

  I recently purchased my Nitro 2007 after leasing Infinitis for the past 15 years. Although there is a little less luxury to the ride, I love this car and enjoy driving it, especially since it seems to handle just as well as the Infinitis.

  Awesome SUV - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Dainger - May 7 - 5:20 am

  I bought the Nitro R/T with the larger engine and boy is it fast. It really gets up and goes a lot better than my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the I-6 4.0. Handling is great with the ESP and braking is really good as well. I love the heated leather seats, rear power outlet, sun roof, and the best is the great comments I get from people about how it looks. A lot of people still havent seen or heard of the SUV yet. Thats what I like the best about it, you dont see one of these bad boys everyday, like some of the other less bolder SUVs.

  What is That? I like it! - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Gordon Landreth - April 30 - 5:46 pm

  I saw the Nitro on the lot last November just after it came out. I knew that was the next one for me Now, four months later, not a day goes by that someone doesnt ask what it is, followed by "I really like it!" I still dont see many on the highway, but people dont know what theyre missing. It rides solid and handles well. Mileage is better than my last foreign SUV.

  My new Nitro with MyGig - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Bryan - April 27 - 5:23 am

  I just bought my black Nitro R/T a few days ago. So far I love it. Im hoping I dont run into any of the mechanical problems others have mentioned, but so far it cant be any better. Im surprised no one has talked about the MyGig system yet. Its awesome. The navigation and satellite radio are great. I already have pictures of my wife and our dogs on the hard drive and displaying on the screen. My only complaint so far is the hard drive space. I knew some of the 20 gigs would be used, but there are only 8 gigs available Its a little disappointing to have less than half the space advertised. Hard drives are cheap, why not stick 120 gigs or more in there.

  Bad Buy - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By ron - March 8 - 10:20 am

  I am very unhappy with my Nitro. It misses out. Tranny is very sloppy and they say this is normal. Bad gas mileage and under powered. I would not reccomend to anyone.

  Double Take - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By jill McQueary - October 18 - 6:26 am

  I have had my black Nitro for 1 1/2 months. I am amazed at how many people have come up to me in parking lots wanting to know what it is. I added the chrome running boards and front chrome facia and just love the added look. I am so happy with the performance and ride of this vehicle!

  Not Sure I Made the Right Decision! - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Grz - October 15 - 1:06 am

  I went from a 2004 Chevy Monte Carlo SS to this and was I disappointed. The test drive was fine. The problems didnt seem to show up till the drive home. The vehicle surges from 0-40 mph and struggles to find the right gear. It sounds like it is in the wrong gear when accelerating. Hwy speeds are okay. If you need to merge dont do it. This vehicle has no pick up for passing. 2 days after I bought it I was back at the service center getting my recall fixed. I didnt know it was legal for a dealership to sell a car with a potentially deadly recall on it. I cant wait for that survey to show up. I must say it does gets some heads turning. All eyes are on me when I pull up but I miss my Chevy!

  What a Great SUV! - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Dave - August 17 - 6:36 am

  I traded in a Chevy Suburban for this great SUV. The Nitros fit and finish blows away any domestic Ive owned. This vehicle is fun to drive and really turns heads. I have never owned a Dodge but its pretty clear that Daimler has had a very positive influence on this build. May have to buy another one.

  Reaserched it ! Bought it! Happy with it - 2007 Dodge Nitro
  By Dave - May 12 - 10:16 pm

  I had been driving a Ram Hemi, wanted to downsize a little but couldnt find any SUV values. The Nitro sticker price caused me to look further. I liked all of the standard features and 4x4. I decided on the base model and upgraded to include the 4x4 and tow package. The base sound system works exellent and the ride is comfortable. I am tall and have to lean a little to get in, but plenty of headroom once inside. Plenty of power from the 3.7 and plenty of room inside, with the seats folded down for a place to sleep while camping! I did plenty of research, and for the money, I found nothing to compare. I have not experienced any of the problems described by others. Very happy!
