Chrysler Aspen -- First Drive: Read the classifieds in your local paper and you’re sure to find a Dodge dealer advertising Durangos for rock bottom prices. Chances are, in fact, that if you were to offer to wash the thing – maybe spring for lunch – there’s a starving salesman out there who might let you take one home for free. Given this, it makes little sense to trot that Durango out as a rebadged Chrysler Aspen, without significant upgrades. It’s all about timing, after all, and in the case of the Aspen bad timing has turned this quiet and comfortable SUV into an afterthought.
