Pros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Nitro?
Aesthetically, this mid size SUV out rivals all others in its class. I have received so many double takes from on lookers, I can't even count and my husband and I have only had it 1 week. It's stylish and bold. We put chrome tubular side rails and it accents the 20' chrome wheels. The ride is so smooth (must be that sports suspension my husband keeps raving about), the leather trimmed seats are very comfortable and it's roomier than I expected it to be. THAT LOAD- AND-GO IS AWESOME!!! One feature that I will NEVER be able to live without is the UConnect. That is the best hands free device I've ever encountered and it sounds crystal clear on both ends.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Nitro?
We have the RT which is a 4.0 liter engine. IT SUCKS GAS! We've filled this car up at least six times this week at $30.00 a pop (that's because we never let it get past the 1/2 tank mark. In any case we've put 1,100 miles on it in 7 days, but on the same note, have probably spent close to $200.00(remember, we've only had it 1 week). The manual says that mid grade is the best for the vehicle so that's all we've been using (an average of $3.50 per gallon). We've decided to use the NITRO only on the weekends. BUT, wouldn't give this vehicle up for the world. That's why we still have our commuter cars :-).
2007 Dodge Nitro Review:
THIS CAR IS INCREDIBLY AWESOME. My husband and I did our research, scouted around for the perfect Nitro and finally traded the PT Cruiser in for this RT. Get this, it only increased our insurance rate by 9 dollars from the PT Cruiser. After waiting for nearly 6 months to purchase one, we finally found it and bought it. We've not look back since!! This RT 4x4 version has get up and go power like you can't believe. Since it's the beginning of summer, we can't wait until winter for the snow to try out the 4x4. My hubby is so proud of the bold, masculine look of the NITRO. He's all smiles when driving down the road.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Nitro?
It works well for what I bought it for, not a mudslinger for sure but a good ride to work. And in bad weather it does a good job.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Nitro?
Have had lots of rear wheel brake noises, rust causes for the most part and I wash underneath all winter. Also now starter to get lights that come on and off for no reason.
2007 Dodge Nitro Review:
More air-conditioning and then light problem solved, talk to several folks and they have had theirs to the shop like a sick kid and have never found anything.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Nitro?
The looks.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Nitro?
The black plastic on the roof pulls up front end sounds like it is going to fall apart and nobody can figure out why. Constantly need to tighten every bolt on the suspension.
Oil pan rusted out after two years.
2007 Dodge Nitro Review:
I bought the Nitro because it looked great in the showroom and have only regretted it since. The monthly repair costs are almost a second car payment. I wouldn't even recommend test driving one.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Nitro?
I like the room that you have in it, and I like that the front seat folds down too makes it easier for our grandson to see where we are going and he loves that.
I like the load and go, too; great for getting groc. in and out.
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Nitro?
I would like to see something done with the blind spots and the shifting in and out of gears and the jerkiness when you try to give a little fuel it is like it is all or nothing.
And that it had a little more power.
It also has a noise in the steering that it never had before but I had it checked out and they say nothing is wrong but the noise was not always there so something is not right.
2007 Dodge Nitro Review:
Overall I love my Nitro as I won it and had never won anything in my life so it is a keeper in my book.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Dodge Nitro?
My Nitro is unstoppable in mud and snow. It came from the factory with 3:55 gears so it really likes to get up and go!
Cons: How would you improve 2007 Dodge Nitro?
Every speed limit in my town is 40 mph, so the trans cant decide which gear it should be in. It drives me crazy. Also, the blind spots really make it hard to drive the express ways in Detroit.

I wouldn't trade my Nitro for anything.

2007 Dodge Nitro Review:
BUT ALL IN ALL I'M IMPRESSED WITH MY LITTLE MULE EVEN THOUGH IT'S ONLY A 4X2, IT'S BEEN THROUGH SOME NARLY STUFF. I AGREE IT WOULD BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO RAISE IT A LITTLE. PUT ON THE NEXT SIZE BFG TIRES AND THROUGH THE DESERT WE GO..........................
