If you purchased a 2009 Dodge Journey with the 3.5-Liter V6 (which is the one you want, trust us), you'll hopefully be getting a call from Chrysler before you have to place a call to the fire department.

The mystery crossover ute we've been seeing spy shots of for the better part of a year is now ready to join Dodge's "Crew" as the Dodge Journey. Set to be unveiled at next month's Frankfurt Auto Show, the Dodge Journey represents the newest assault by the Dodge brand on the global sensibilities MPV market.
