Comfort
The Dodge Journey offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Nissan Murano, with comparable head- and legroom.
The Nissan Murano will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Dodge Journey.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Dodge Journey as you will with the Nissan Murano, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.
Cost

Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Destination Charge for the Dodge Journey is much higher than that for the Nissan Murano.

Drivetrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Dodge Journey transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Nissan Murano.
