  Awesome ride...but were trading down. - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By ~m~ - June 5 - 12:04 pm

  We love our Aspen, it handles well and the bells and whistles are awesome. We havent had any malfunctions to speak of, although my husband has noticed something strange at the pumps, he often fills up when the needle is on E, and as he fills the tank he expects the gallons on the pump to match what he knows the tank should hold, the numbers come close to matching. Its as if theres a few unrecorded gallons left in his tank (but its a significant amt). The dealer has checked it out too, and no one can explain it. Its weird. Our one complaint, the rear seats are FIXED. They cannot be slid forward or backward by the occupant to accommodate a tall driver or someone in the 3rd row!

  Nice SUV but read this before you buy? - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Ms. Frugal - May 28 - 2:57 pm

  I really do like my 2008 Aspen but I wish I would have noticed a few things before I purchased it. #1, the sunroof does not go all the way back as in flush. Therefore, it causes a bit of noise that will require a wind deflector. #2, The Antenna, I dont know how I missed this but being as though none of my past models had it, it just slipped by. But, why in 2008 are there still visible antennas? Its really annoying going through a car wash! #3, Even though it is an SUV, it SUCKS gas like crazy. I did get the Hemi engine but I dont stomp on the pedal at all. A full tank of gas gets you about 350-375 miles, so I guess its not to bad but dont forget the 5.7 engine requires 89 octane gas!!!

  Resale Writeoff - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By Vandada - May 11 - 8:30 am

  Purchased a 2007 model in Jan 08. The vehicle included most options, but the smaller 8 cyl. Sticker was $41k. Saw the 2008 in the dealership when in for first service in April, 08 Liked it because of enhanced features on most options. Thought Id trade out and knew Id get hammered on the trade. I didnt expect to get slaughtered. Dealer quoted me a trade value of $23,500, or 12,500 less than purchase price 3 months earlier, and was only willing to cut sticker price on 08 by $4,000. When people realize that these pigs not only guzzle gas, but theyll guzzle your equity, we wont be seeing many more.

  Best SUV on the road - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By jan - April 22 - 5:11 pm

  This is the perfect SUV. I have the j package with the hemi, 20 wheels and all the extras. It fits all of us with comfort and ease. One of us is 65 one 511 and one jumbo sized. I got the cool vanilla exterior color an it looks beautiful. I love the heated seats, back up camera, and gig touch screen radio and gps.

  Stylish - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By Vonna - April 18 - 3:28 pm

  Got a great deal through warehouse club. Feel as though I have a vehicle as good or better looking than the majority of the SUVs only I paid much less. I get comments all the time on how nice the SUV looks. Roomy enough to haul just about anything and very comfortably seats people even in the third row.

  Nice Ride! - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By ESA - April 16 - 4:57 pm

  Replaced my 300C with the Aspen.Definitely a better fit for a family who doesnt want to go minivan crazy! Seats adults and kids comfortably and makes its presence known on the road. Although the Aspen comes with some pretty cool standard features, only adding minor upgrades has been hard to deal with after the purchase (Nav. and entertainment system would have made this a nicer buy). Chrysler should also think about moving the body style further away from the Durango..I know as an Aspen owner I get a little peeved when people say, "oh, you went and got the Durango?" - NO! Overall, its a sweet ride.

  Aspen Limited - 2008 Chrysler Aspen

  I have owned a number of Dodge/Chrysler products. I really like the Aspen. The MyGIG Nav system is great. The Hemi is strong and overall he looks are outstanding.

  Great family buy! - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By skii - January 18 - 5:40 am

  This started out as a vehicle for the wife and kids, but I find myself behind the wheel more & more. Great look, feel, and handling for the price! Even the base model demands respect!

  Nice Truck - 2008 Chrysler Aspen
  By bak - January 6 - 10:17 pm

  I have been a big fan of Edmunds for a long time- but I have to disagree here. I have a 2005 Durango and recently purchased a 08 Aspen (because we enjoy the Durango so much). While I agree that the trucks look very similar there is a huge difference inside the two vehicles. Even though they are similarly equipped, it is obvious that they went to great lengths to differentiate the two vehicles. The gas mileage is worse even with the same engine (hopefully because its new).

  So far so Good - 2007 Chrysler Aspen
  By WWooten - October 27 - 7:08 pm

  This SUV is the bomb. I get compliment after compliment on it. Its loaded and I feel rich driving it. It came with a lifetime powertrain warranty, however, I purchased the extended bumper to bumper warranty which is lifetime as well. Yes, I said lifetime bumber to bumper. What can I say, I have had past problems with American made vehicles. Although, I doubt it will give me as many problems as my Chevy Trailblazer and Buick Rendezvous. That Hemi just hums. You will be noticed and you cant beat the price-period.
