Half Marathon Start Line took place at the Virginia Beach COnvention Center on September 5, 2010 at 7:00 am and ended on the oceanfront boardwalk. The Dodge brand team laced up their running shoes to compete in the “Dodge Rock ‘n’ Roll Virginia Beach Half Marathon presented by SunTrust” in Virginia Beach over the Labor Day weekend. Runners included Ralph Gilles, Dodge Car Brand President and CEO; Steven Zanlunghi, Director of Mid-Atlantic Business Center; Charlie Glymph, Marketing Manager of Mid-Atlantic Business Center and approximately 20,000 marathon runners and walkers. Dodge proudly showed off its all-new 2011 Dodge Durango as Hall Auto captured unseen before photos of the vehicle.

The event brought the formal public debut of the 2011 Dodge Durango. Dodge has debuted the 2011 Durango just after Ford rolled out their insanely popular 2011 Explorer and with both of these new SUVs expected to hit showrooms later this year, we could have an interesting battle setting up between two of the heavy-hitters in the sport utility market.

Also, did we forget to mention that the price for this car is only $16,045 to begin with? It’s the stress free car buyer’s dream come true.

2010 Dodge Caliber (31 MPG HWY) starting at $17,090

The Caliber’s got your back at the pump. When it comes to sporty vehicles, it’s reassuring to know hugging turns isn’t burning a hole in your wallet at the pump. Usually great gas mileage means a smaller car and less storage, not in this car. Fold-flat seating and second-row reclining seats make transporting easy. Let’s not exaggerate though, it’s still a “small car;” Dodge just made its storage bigger than others its size. Start packing and get moving.

2010 Honda Insight (43 MPG HWY) starting at $19,800

The aerodynamic shape helps this car get the highest MPG on this list. The modern and sleek design isn’t the only thing making this new model fly off the lot. Remember, even a hybrid has its roots and this is still a Honda. True to form you will spend as much time in the passing lane as you do not filling up your tank. Make economy a contest, watch your eco meter adjust as you switch into ECON mode then power out of the mode to race away. It’s fun having so much control over your vehicle. Come have some fun!

2010 Chrysler Sebring (30 MPG HWY) starting at $20,860

The slogan says “Make a Long Distance Relationship” and that is exactly what this car develops with its owner. This car is a giver. With the UCONNECT system, Chrysler allows drivers to stay connected to your friends, family or business while in the car. The feature allows passengers to surf the web, check email, play games online, etc through its 3G broadband internet in addition to navigation, phone, and of course satellite radio or your iPod through its “eyes on the road.” Technology, safety, dependability and price make this car a green pick.

2010 Volkswagen Golf TDI (42 MPG HWY) starting at $22,354

2010 Buick Lacrosse CXS (27 MPG HWY) starting at $33,015

Although the Buick is priced above the other fuel efficient vehicles on this list, it is priced higher for a reason. Its V6 engine, perforated leather appointed 8-way seating, 18” chrome plated wheels and a Harmon/Kardon 11-speaker with USB port should be enough to spell out luxury. It’s made the green list because true to its word, it gets 27 MPG. For a luxurious ride that doesn’t payout at the pump, its love at first site. Step inside and see for yourself.
