Pro Tip: Durango Pursuits appear less frequently than Charger Pursuits or Ford PIUs — state police and highway patrol agencies are the primary source. Watch for multi-unit fleet retirements from state agencies, which often offer the best pricing. The 6.4L HEMI units are rare; set up saved searches on GovDeals to catch them immediately.

Buyer Guide TipsBefore You Bid on a Durango Pursuit
Advice from professional dealers and inspectors who have bought and sold government surplus police SUVs across the country.
The Only Pursuit-Rated V8 Police SUV on the Market
The Dodge Durango Pursuit is the only pursuit-rated police SUV available with a V8 engine — the 5.7L HEMI (360 hp) or the 6.4L HEMI (475 hp on the SRT-based package). This makes it uniquely desirable among collectors, enthusiasts, and buyers who want genuine pursuit capability in an SUV body. No other police SUV offers this combination.
AWD Standard — Built for All-Weather Pursuit
All Durango Pursuit models come with AWD as standard equipment, paired with the HEMI V8. This combination makes it one of the most capable all-weather pursuit vehicles ever deployed. The AWD system is shared with the civilian Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee — parts and service are widely available at any Stellantis dealer.
Know Your HEMI: 5.7L vs 6.4L
Most fleet Durango Pursuits run the 5.7L HEMI V8 (360 hp). A smaller number were equipped with the 6.4L HEMI (475 hp) in specialized pursuit configurations. The 6.4L units are significantly rarer at auction and command a strong premium. Confirm the engine from the VIN or listing details — the difference in value can be $3,000–$8,000.
Three-Row Seating Is a Civilian Conversion Advantage
Unlike the Ford PIU or Tahoe PPV, the Durango Pursuit offers available third-row seating. After removing the partition and police equipment, a Durango Pursuit can be converted to a full 7-passenger family SUV — a major advantage for civilian resale. Inspect the third-row seat condition and folding mechanism carefully if present.
HEMI Tick and Lifter Wear — Know the Risk
The 5.7L HEMI is known for a characteristic "HEMI tick" at startup — usually a lifter or MDS (Multi-Displacement System) issue. On high-mileage police units that have been driven hard, lifter wear is a real concern. Listen carefully at cold start, check for any MDS-related codes, and confirm the oil change history. Lifter replacement on a HEMI can run $2,000–$4,000.
Title, Registration, and Pursuit Package Verification
Genuine Durango Pursuit models have a factory police package designation in the build sheet. Request the window sticker or build sheet from the selling agency to confirm the pursuit package — it affects insurance, registration in some states, and resale value. Most government surplus units come with a clean fleet title, but confirm the title type before bidding.
Always Inspect Before You Bid
Government auction vehicles are sold as-is with no warranty. Durango Pursuits can have hidden HEMI drivetrain wear, MDS lifter issues, and AWD system stress from hard pursuit service. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic familiar with HEMI engines and police fleet vehicles is strongly recommended before placing any bid. See our Pre-Purchase Inspection Guide for a full checklist.
