Well when buying the platinum tipped for the VE engine they are $11.00 each. If you have a VG then buy the cheaper ones since that engine doesn't require platinum tipped plugs, they cost something like $2.00 each.

NGK Platinums for VE and newer.

I was able to get about .8mpg increase by stepping down to a one step colder spark plug, and not have the "power tip" on the Durango. I switched to Autolite 3923's, but that doesnt matter
