2010 Dodge Journey Performance Review

The Dodge Journey provides a smooth and predictable ride. Most say that it's not all that exciting to drive, but it gets the job done. However, test drivers complain that the base engine is sluggish and the steering leaves something to be desired.

• Performance 6.9

2010 Journey Photos

• "One thing's certain: the V-6 Dodge Journey's dynamic performance beats that of the Ford Edge. Unlike the Edge, it's not trucky-heavy, with one-third of the Journey's body-structure, by weight, made of high-strength steel." -- Motor Trend
• "The Journey is pleasant to drive, and V-6 models have a sportier feel than one might suspect. There is quick, rather firm steering with decent road feel. The rather soft ride is carlike. Handling is good, as is braking -- although the pedal occasionally felt as if it needed a more linear action." -- Chicago Sun-Times
• "The driving experience is much like that of the Avenger, where there is minimal steering feel and a ride quality that spurs no enthusiasm. Although the optional sport package improves roll control, it's still not enough to make the driver of a Dodge Journey think of anything other than a minivan." -- Road and Track

Acceleration and Power

The base Journey comes with a 2.4-liter, 173-horsepower four-cylinder engine paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. The SXT and R/T upgrade to a 3.5-liter, 235-horsepower V6 paired with a six-speed automatic. Test drivers say the base engine is underpowered and overwhelmingly recommend the V6. To get it, youll have to spend about $3,300 more to upgrade to the SXT model.

According to the EPA , the front-wheel drive Journey should net 19/25 mpg city/highway with the base engine and 16/24 mpg with the V6. The all-wheel drive model with the V6 engine is rated at 15/23 mpg city/highway. Most three-row, V6-powered midsize SUVs get better fuel economy than the Journey.The Toyota Highlander gets an impressive 20/27 mpg city/highway with its four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive, and still maintains 17/23 mpg city/highway with four-wheel drive and a V6 engine.

• "The four-cylinder engine was peppy and had enough power to get us up moderate inclines, but the V6 seemed to be a better fit, although not as powerful as the V6 in the Toyota RAV4." -- Kelley Blue Book
• "If the Journey is used mainly for running errands and chauffeuring kids, the four-cylinder engine is adequate. But load it up with people and things for a road trip and this engine will be disappointing." -- MSN
• "On the road, the V-6 feels ideally suited to the 4,000-plus lb. Journey. There is enough power to pass efficiently and cruise easily. The predicted gas mileage is on the low end of average in what is admittedly an underachieving segment." -- AutoMedia.com
• "Performance is acceptable in V-6 models, tepid in the basic four-cylinder version -- tepidity that's aggravated by the hunting of the four-speed automatic." -- Car and Driver

Handling and Braking

Test drivers say that the 2010 Dodge Journey has a comfortable ride, but they note the handling isn't very responsive or sporty. Even the performance-oriented R/T model, which costs about $6,200 more than the base SE, isnt particularly fun to drive.

• "Given the Journey's near 4,000-pound curb weight it's not a corner carver, but the ride is nice and tight and the steering responsive. MacPherson struts in front and a multi-link independent suspension in back give Journey a sedan-like feel." -- MSN
• "Journey seemed sure-footed, though neither steering nor handling were terribly responsive. The ride is well-cushioned, even on rough surfaces." -- Arizona Republic
• "Journey handles very competently. While it doesn't have the planted feel of a sedan with a low center of gravity, it also doesn't feel tippy like some big SUVs." -- About.com
• "Like most of the interactions between driver and vehicle, braking feel is almost nonexistent, lacking the reassuring feedback you'd expect from a similar vehicle. Weighting aside, the four-wheel disc brakes get the job done." -- Jalopnik
• "Steering is true if not too crisp, even with the supposed 'performance' steering of the R/T." -- Car and Driver
• "Fast on its feet, the new Journey is surprisingly agile with less than anticipated body roll. We even took the opportunity to veer off-road and try to upset the suspension on some of Nevada's best unkempt sand and dirt roads. The Dodge Journey had no problem keeping up with any challenge we threw at it." -- Road & Travel

Surviving Soviet WW2 Tanks

The t-60 scout tank.

The T-60 Soviet light tank was produced in large numbers in response to the German 1941 Operation Barbarossa, the invasion of Russia. This restored tank can be found at the Kubinka Tank Museum near Moscow, Russia.

Take the train from Moscow's Belorusskaya Railway Station, in the north west of the city, to Kubinka. It is about an hours train journey. It is a direct service, no need to change, and the the tickets are cheap. Make sure you print off a list of station names so you can check off where you are and get ready to get off the train at Kubinka. The station names are not always easy to read or see.

Although this military town has been active for over 80 years it has a rundown look to it. You can walk to the museum but there is the equivalent of a motorway crossing your route. There are no pedestrian crossings over it. There are a number of taxi stands near the station. They are very cheap and honest. I tried to give the driver a big tip but he refused. Ask for his card so you can ask the Museum gate staff to call his company when you are finished at the Museum to get back to the railway station.

Development

Before it even entered service it was obsolete as a front line tank that was to engage enemy tanks like the recently upgraded Panzer III and IV tanks. At all costs it had to avoid contact with these new and improved enemy machines. It would not be a fair fight because its 20mm TNSh main gun could not penetrate their frontal armour.

It could only penetrate 15mm of armour at 500m. German armour ranged from 30 mm to 50 mm at that time. The T-60's armour plating offered no protection from enemy 50mm and 75mm shells. It was just too thin. It only offered protection from small arms fire.

When it was used against German infantry and soft skinned vehicles it was effective. As the Germans advanced towards Moscow the crops in the surrounding countryside were at their full height. It helped screen the small low profile T-60 tanks. This enabled some of the tank crews to sneak close undetected and engage German infantry units and cause serious amounts of casualties.

Major-General M.E. Katukov stated in an interview 'In this fateful hour, when the Germans had almost defeated us, those ridiculous tanks saved our positions. It was lucky that the rye in the area was almost a meter high, as the T-60s were hidden by it. Using the rye field, both of our T-60 tanks were able to infiltrate the rear of German infantry and open fire on them. After several minutes of intense fire, the German attack was halted.'

The T-60 tank designer was Nicholas Astrov and they were manufactured between 1941 to 1942 at Factory 37,Moscow, GAZ, Gorkiy and later Factory 38 Kirov. It is believed that 6,292 tanks were produced during that period. This light tank weighed 5.8 tonnes and was powered by a GAZ - 202 cylinder engine that produced 70 bhp. It had a top road speed of 44 km/h and 22 km/h off road.

It was fitted with a 7.62 coaxial DT machine gun in addition to the 20mm main gun. It had a large fuel tank of 320 litres and a good operational range of 450km. This enabled it to remain with infantry units without having to constantly return to be refuelled. It enhanced its abilities as a scout tank. It could go on patrol looking for the enemy knowing that it had enough fuel to return back to Regimental headquarters with its report.

It was introduced into the Red Army as a replacement for the T-38 and T-40A amphibious scout tanks T-40S Sukhoputniy 'dry-land' light tank. They were only armed with a 12.7 mm machine gun. The T-60 was the Russian equivalent to the German Panzer II tank. In armoured combat or when they were spotted by anti-tank guns, many were knocked out causing the death or injury of the crew.

This earnt the T60 tank the nickname of Bratskaya Mogila na Dovoikh which means 'A grave for two brothers'. In 1942 the frontal armour of the T-60 was increased from 25mm to 35mm but this was still too thin. The engine could not cope very well with the extra weight. It became even more sluggish and less manoeuvrable than it already was before the additional protection was applied to the vehicle.
