    I voted but did not list in here that I have the 5.7.

    I had another Commander for one day and it had the 4.7, that is why I traded it back for the 5.7

    I have the 5.7 Hemi. I'm really happy with it, more than enough power to tow my boat and QDII for playing "off the road".

    I am very happy with the 4.7 although since fuel economy seems to be similar, the 5.7 would be nice. The 4.7 handles itself well and does a good job at towing. No regrets on the 4.7 but I too did not think much of the difference in engines when I purchased. I just wanted something with a V8

    No choice

    We got the 4.7 Flex fuel. Wasn't really a preference thing, it came with the car. We bought used at 10k miles. Got a much better deal that way, but not all the choice we would have wanted. Now that I have lifted, put on bigger wheels, am towing, my 4.7L has yet to refuse to take me where I want to go .

    While driving in PA over the weekend, We noticed at or around hanover, PA a gas station which sells E85.. Woot.. I've been waiting for a location which sells E85 after we bought the Commander.. Trouble is we had a full tank by the time we seen the station.. At least now we know if we head up that way, there is an alternative..

    I have the 3.7 with QDI, although a V8 with QDII would have been nice. I am quite happy with the offroad performance , I have gotten through some deep mud that even my friends 2009 Z71 4x4 silverado couldnt even drive halfway through. Also, when purchasing my car, it was either 4.7 2wd or 3.7 4wd, so I just had to go with the 4x4 lol.
