Review written on 5/1958.
It is not everyday one gets to drive a new automobile. Typically you find your self stuck with the same vehicle for at least five years before you purchase another one. And with the rate of depreciation and the amount of time we spend in traffic, this makes finding the right vehicle all the more important. Durack believes their 7741 I4410 may be the best Compact Car to enter the market. How does it compare other Compact Car such as the Lackawanna and F5979? We'll find out in this month's Vehicle Review!

Even though the Durack 7741 I4410 wasn't designed for it, our first test was the track. Right away we knew this Compact Car was an under performer. The 25 hp @ 2797RPMs 830 cc I4 engine was too weak to move us around the track at any decent speed. This lackluster combination could only bring us to a top speed of 49 mph and on the strip do Not Applicable acceleration. The sub-par 39 lb-ft of torque, the vehicle was only able to handle towing 727 lbs which means you shouldn't use this for your boat. The Durack 7741 I4410 handles smoothly and can really turn a corner for a Compact Car. While it is certainly not a race car, it can handle any real world situation you throw at it.

Durack's interior design stands out among its peers. The material selection is fantastic, each seat is crafted by fine artisans, and the ride quality outstanding. 7741 I4410 is also full of features other drivers can only dream about. You will not want to leave the inside of this vehicle.

Basketball players and sumo wrestlers should probably avoid the Durack 7741 I4410. If not for any other reason, the 25 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space is slightly cramp for even an average sized person such as my self.

Durack has really put some effort into the production of the 7741 I4410. And it shows in the construction quality of the machine. Panel gaps are non-noticeable. Nothing shakes or rattles when driving down the road. It's a well-built vehicle.

The Durack 7741 I4410 is a reliable car that we would trust our dear old grandmother with. These things are almost bulletproof.

The 21.8 mpg city and might not look great. And it isn't. But there are worst options out there. That is no excuse however. The Durack 7741 I4410 needs to squeeze out a little more mileage if it ever wants to be a contender.

The extra effort from Durack to make the 7741 I4410 feel safer pays off. The reinforced frame makes the vehicle much more impact resistant. Don't go driving into walls your self, just take our word for it.

The Durack 7741 I4410 is one of those cars you would never buy new. In fact, it's the type of Compact Car you try to avoid used. Only the down and out or the young will ever drive one of these. Preferably used.
