Used Dodge Dakota trucks for sale under $9,000 near me

The Dakota has exceeded my expectations in more ways than one. This is the reason I'm in search of my next Dakota I aware that this truck is discontinue but I don't want to give up just yet!!! Please help me find another Dakota.

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.

Top place to find your best deal on a clean car, I’m glad that I found this place, I bought a second car from them. Thank you guys!! Recommend, Professional,

This was a very reliable truck! Still is! It can go forever! Given the age it's more of a worktruck or starter truck but will take you where you need to go.

I BOUGHT A BMW 7 SERIES. THIS IS A REAL NICE CAR. I WOULD RECOMMEND ZACS AUTO SALES TO EVERYONE!!!

Bought this Dakota Quad 4x4 new. It has the 4.7 V8. The absolute Best Truck I’ve ever owned. It’s still lookin and running like new with 250.000 miles on it. Never had any problems with it. It’s sitting in the drive way right now.

They found and sold me my 2013 Prius. This is the third car I have purchased from these guys. They get an A+.

I bought my 2004 Dakota Club Cab SLT 4.7 Automatic in 2008 from a Dodge dealership used car lot. I love this truck. I've always owned mini/mid sized trucks. Datsun,Nissan,Ford Ranger, and this Dakota is the best. The comfort, drivabilty is superior. The rack and pinion steering, 4 wheel disc brakes,limited slip differential, 3.92 gears all contribute to the driving experience. I didn't know this until a few years after owning, but these trucks are classified as 3/4 ton. They have the highest towing capacity 6440 lbs. They have separate trailer circuitry independent from truck lighting. It's own trailer light fuses. The only extended cab with forward faceing rear seats with shoulder restraints. I have about 150,000 it's now 1/7/2023.

They were extremely patient and kind to me when buying a car. I bought a 2006 Toyota Prius and I am absolutely loving it so far! I had a few mishaps in the buying process, and they were the epitome of patience and kindness. They were willing to work with me through every part of the process and I cannot stress how thankful I am for it! I went to the Plainfield location and would highly recommend it! Karl is a wonderful person to work with!

I've had my 05 dakota 3.7 quad cab for about a year and I have put 16000 miles on it without a problem I have found that it likes the finer fuel in life and premium gas ain't cheap!

My experience has been awesome so far! They got me into a very nice car, for an awesome price, in less than 2 hrs, and Monique literally saved my life, lol! I would recommend this place to any and every one! Amazing prices, reliable, decent vehicles, and alot to choose from too! They will take care of you, I can promise you that!

This was a great sport truck with room for family and those home deport weekends. Very drivability with close turning radius and visibility nice height without lift kit

I had a great experience at Salem Autosports buying a Subaru Forester. Mike was super responsive and helpful. Not pushy like your typical car salesman. I'd highly recommend Salem Autosports to anyone looking for a vehicle in the area.

This truck meet all my needs at the time. Now I have grand kids to take to different School functions and there is not enough room in the truck.

Salem Autosports has gotten some bad reviews from people who buy vehicles from them only to have them end up having mechanical issues. It's important to keep in mind that salem autosports is essentially a car flipping dealership, meaning they buy used cars from a couple of sources (such as trade-ins from a local dealership), and then turn around and sell them for a good deal without doing much mechanical review or cleanup of the vehicle. This method of business allows you to find some pretty good deals here, but you have to know the above to know that you need to do your own review of the vehicle and you're not going to be guaranteed that you won't have to put a little money into it after you buy it to fix a few things. All that said, I got such a good deal on a 2002 Toyota Tacoma with low miles that it was worth me flying here all the way from Omaha, Nebraska, to buy the truck that I had not even seen in person. Yes it was a bit of a risk, but it paid off and the truck is very nice even though I did have to put about $1,300 into it after buying it to fix a few things like some ball joints. That said I got the truck for probably like $4,000 under Blue Book value so I'm still well in the money on it and love it. As far as service goes, these guys were great to work with from afar. They answered all my questions kindly and promptly and even went as far as sending me video footage of them hammering on some areas under the frame so I can make sure it was just spot rust. Overall I would definitely recommend this dealership with the caveat that you have to be ready to do your own research on the vehicle and thoroughly check it out to make sure that it is good as far as you can tell and be willing to potentially put a little money into it after you buy it, but that's not really that uncommon when buying a used vehicle anyway. I caught a few minor issues with the truck when doing my in person review, (such as the passenger side door handle being broken), and they knocked off a couple hundred dollars right on the spot for me. Thanks guys! Appreciate the good deal and service!

Very reliable truck. Have never had major problems. I am giving it to my brother. He needs a reliable vehicle. I am going to miss this truck!

My wife & I found this small dealership, and from our first phone call to shaking hands on a truly fair deal, we had a fantastic experience. This father and son operation exudes authenticity. Zero pressure, 100% honesty, just a joy to work with. I would refer anyone to this dealership. The prices are exceptional, and the inventory is varied enough that just about anyone could find a vehicle to fit their needs. They’re older, higher mileage cars ours was a Carmax trade in that they would not retail due to its age (2007). There were a couple issues with the car, but Brandon immediately acknowledged them and we worked out a deal to have these areas addressed. We had a friendly conversation with Brandon and his dad after the deal was worked out. We felt like they received a fair price for their vehicle, and so did we. You should take the time to visit this dealership if you find a vehicle in their inventory that suits your needs. Great people, excellent prices, and unquestionable ethics.

Bought my SXT model new in 2002, Traded my 1994 Dakota. Still driving the 2002 daily. It has been an excellent truck. The only problem I had was when I was a mobile technician and drove a company van so my Dakota was mostly parked for about 4 years, the rubber hose on the evaporator canister deteriorated and the check engine light came on. since replacing that, no problems. 156,000 miles and still going strong.

This is a family owned businesses and one of the nicest dealerships I've ever dealt with I will go back to them on my next vehicle purchase I'm very pleased with the company

Bought this truck in'03 with 110k miles. I'm proud to say, it now has 348k. Very dependable ride. Always starts, gets 15 mpg combined average mileage, and has enough power to pull my car trailer with way too much on it, lots of times. The downside of the Dakota's are the body rust. Door bottoms, wheel wells, and now the rocker panels are falling apart. Got my money's worth!! Looking for my next Dakota right now.

Sal was awesome to work with, made the buying process really easy and fun, I would highly recommend John Deery Motors! They value every customer!

Its a great truck, good sound system, simple interior design, a lot of room. Great for commuting or for hauling items, the only issue that I can think of is that its a bit short.

This my 2nd Dodge Dakota, I would recommend another one to anyone who wants manual truck. My 1st was 1997 Dodge Dakota, I actually prefer the 97 style to the 2006 model, this year would make my truck 26 yrs old. Still on the road, just has a few maintenance issues, still planning on keeping my 97, gonna put it in the shop for some TLC. I guess what I am trying to say is that the Dodge corporation made one xxxx of a truck, I believe that if the 2006 last as long as my 97, then this will be my last truck. Nothing better than shifting gears with the windows rolled down, going 60 mph.

Had a really great experience with Mike today buying our vehicle he had great customer service . We were in and out in a reasonable amount of time. Would highly recommend them we will consider them again in the future when we need to buy another vehicle.

I am so blown away at the power/performance that my 4.7 v8 2000 Dakota has. The 4x4 has been A God send those winter (philly) with all the snow we’ve had. Now here’s the killer part... I paid 450 dollars for it, 109,000 miles with a little rust on frame. But it passed Pa inspection. Keeping this little truck forever!!!!

like he was on the customer’s side, which we always appreciate. Mike was the finance guy we talked to and negotiated with. He was friendly and personable even while he was very honest and firm when it came to watching out for his end of the deal as well as the benefit of the company (which we felt was very reasonable of him, it just meant we had to advocate for ourselves, of course.) We also appreciated the time he took to work with us to arrive at a deal we were comfortable with. In the end, as part of the deal, he agreed to have someone look at rubbing out a minor dent on the car and was willing to fill up the tank with gas, which left us feeling pretty well taken care of. As with all dealerships, it’s obviously important to come well prepared and knowledgeable about price, fees and add-ons you may or may not want to have, because you’re the one looking out for yourself and negotiating the deal you want! But it’s always helpful and an enjoyable experience when the company is fair and honest in working with you.

2004 3.7 2wd Club Cab 265,000 miles, daily driver, original owner. I had it undercoated and despite all the Michigan winters, there is very little rust. I pull my Searay 250 Sundancer to the marina and back each year and it does a fine job. I have a limited slip differential which helps in snow and rain. MPG is 17 to 19 no matter how you drive. Currently on the 2nd set of spark plugs and 2nd muffler/tail pipe. Changed upper and lower ball joints and engine valve lifters 225k. Everything,except brakes, tires, battery, radiator, hoses and belt, is original. The AC still works great. She still has plenty of power and has never let me down. I've had many vehicles throughout the years and this one is without a doubt the most durable and reliable I've owned.

Bought a car through Advantage Auto Sales and our salesman was Julian. There was no pressure and the whole process was easy peasy. He was a lot of fun to work with and now the search for my son’s first car is finally over!!!

I had a 2004 Dakota Quad Cab 4x4 with the 4.7 V8. I loved it, while the gas mileage was not great it was rock solid. Only thing I had go wrong was the transfer case went out on it.

although I didnt buy a car with this company cuz my wife wanted something a lil diffrent kelly was awsome to work with very straight forward and was an honest dealer I will visit them again in future and keep them in mind when we look again :)

We have a 2001 Dodge, 2001 Dodge Dakota, 2007 Dodge Dakota & 2008. Dakotas were made good & 2 Run A Long Time! We Had A Friend That had a Dodge That had At least 300,000 the truck is here but he isnt anymore.

Great experience, on the top Chris Larson salesman, couldn't be happier. Would highly recommend. Going back for service too. Great service department. Why go anywhere else?

Saw the 2000 model available here in the area, and even though the front had been crushed in a rear end collision in stop and go interstate traffic, the frame rails appeared to be straight, and no damage was sustained beyond the front clip and engine compartment. The radiator had been shoved back against the water pump pulley, so in addition to the front clip body parts, it required the auto trans cooler, condenser, radiator, electric fan, mechanical fan, upper and lower shroud halves and the water pump replacement. It was a low speed collision, and the airbags remained undeployed, and that one detail was enough to convince me that it was a prime candidate for being rebuilt. It would replace the standard cab 1993 4x4 we had piled up over 350k miles on the original 318 ci that was about ready to either be rebuilt mechanically, retired or sold to someone else who could redo the power train in time. I had personally rebuilt and upgraded the automatic transmission and transfer case both twice in the 17+ years we had been driving it daily or close to it, but the 5.2 was factory original and with the decreased oil pressure and a little light smoke on cold starts, it was needing some tlc soon. I paid $1000 for the wrecked Quad Cab sitting in the guys front yard, and considered that a good deal since it was sitting on a set of 4 Nexxen all season rubber, had a custom Cat-back dual exhaust system that was nearly new, a new 6 year Interstate 920 CCA battery and a shiny new alternator under the hood as well as an ARE fiberglass topper on back. All the receipts he had totalled quite a sum more than the thousand bucks he was asking for it. I line locked the trans cooler lines, sleeved the upper radiator hose, topped the water and drove it the 7 miles home in the crumpled condition. An additional $1300 spent on all the parts to put the truck back in shape both mechanical and cosmetic, along with a new windshield, and the hours of labor I invested in the project, it was ready to drive. Turned out the 4.7L had been abused somewhat, primarily due to the owner's lack of mechanical inclination or aptitude, and all because of a faulty thermostat, the heads were both slightly warped. I milled .006" from the driver's side head, and .007" from the passenger side. New valve seals, all 3 timing chains and sprockets, tensioners, and a new oil pump while I was that far into it since 6 of the 8 cylinders still had tolerable compression numbers, so I figured I would spend a bit to refresh the top end and cross my fingers. That 4.7 runs like a champ now. Starts at the mere bump of the ignition switch and runs out excellent, especially considering it's got over 205k miles on it. I did end up swapping the factory 195° thermostat for a slightly cooler 180° Stent, since I pull my mower trailer with a heavy ExMark zero turn in the hills here in NW Arkansas, causing the engine temp to be a bit higher than I thought necessary in the mid-afternoon heat. The 180° did the trick. The truck doesn't get the best fuel mileage in comparison to the old '93 and the 318, but driven normal it stays in the 14-17 mpg range so it's affordable. Compare it to the 383 stroker I built for my son's '85 SWB 4x4 and it gets excellent mpg... Hahaha

Great experience with Sam in service department he did what he said took care of my Rav4 inside and out will return to Sam in the future for service and car care.

I first owned a 98 Dakota and fell in love with it when it was time for a new vehicle i chose a newer Dakota because your getting a lot of truck for the money. Theres space for your family amd friends to sit comfortable and plenty of space and power to haul large items and tow small to medium trailers. Interior is straight forward with a nice sounding radio all displays nice and clear. The only thong i wiah was dofferent about MY particular truck is I wish it was a v8 with a stick. However with that being said this lottle v6 gets the job. I do everything i ised to do with my old truck in this newer one and this one does come with a v8 6 speed option which ill be sure to 'pick up' in the future so yeah i recommend it.

The buying experience was great. No pressure, quick and easy transaction. The car was priced to sell with no surprises when we arrived to test drive. Overall I would recommend this dealership.

Purchased used for $1500 to using as a fishing truck about a decade ago, but we can’t kill it! About to roll 200,000 miles and haven’t spent a dime on anything more than routine maintenance. Heater is weak, A/C is strong, and the seats are as comfortable as any truck. The V-6 isn’t strong but gets respectable fuel mileage. Best served with a manual transmission.
