Nice....I agree, I hated looking at 2WD Jeeps back in FL. Not a Jeep!

What engine? 2.4L or 3.6L?

Is it brand spanking new or slightly used? If it's new, it's been sitting for a while because it doesn't have the Two Stripe Dodge logo on the front grille which was a running change for the 2012 model year.

This is my mom's... see what I mean?

No, my mom's is FWD too. It was a mid-model year change. I work for Chrysler, a bunch of Durango grilles just started showing up with the two stripes one day.
