Best small truck.
I have owned three different Dakotas. All three of them we're extremely reliable and The Styling can't be beat. My 2001 had the 4.7 engine and it was a beast. My 2008 Dakota is absolutely beautiful. It has the 3.7 liter engine, which seems to do pretty good.

I like my truck.
Other than NOT being told that my truck had a factory recall on the Takata airbags on both the driver side and front passenger airbags, my truck is great.

Great Midsize truck
This Dodge Dakota with the 4.7 magnum has great towing power but drives and rides like a car. The seats are very firm and comfortable- the rear seats fold up and provide alot of hauling capacity

Expensive to Maintain
This truck was great at the beginning, I bought it used with 13,000 kilometers on it. as it got older the cost to maintain it prompted me to start looking for a new one. the front end ball joints, wheel bearings had to be changed three separate times, check engine light came on and after thousands of dollars dealer still could not fix it.

It has 165000 miles no problem just service it
I like the drive. The ride is stiff but I know it is a truck. I wish it had 4 full doors so it would have more room in the back seat. Gas mileage is not good but it?s a truck. I think it is the best truck dodge ever built. Why did they stop making it?

Best truck for your money!
You do not need a $40,000 Ford F-150. When you can buy a used Dodge Dakota. I currently own a 2008 Dodge Dakota Sport Crew cab, with the 4.7 magnum V8. It is all black. It is a fast little fun truck that can do a whole lot. I used it once to bring plants, stone and small trees to my house. Did not struggle. Also it can tow around 7000 pounds. Pretty much the same as a Ram 1500. I know the after market is not popular but I did do things to it and plan on doing more. K/N cold air intake and a Flowmaster exhaust really woke the truck up. My friend owns a Subaru BRZ and he has more fun in my truck than his car. So if you are looking for a truck check out a Dodge Dakota. You will not regret it.
