Dodge Dakota 4x4-good or bad?

[squirrelman]

I just bought a Dodge Dakota 4x4 with a 8cycl. engine. What do you guys think of this truck? Good or bad? thanks....

Bought one new in 2000 and it's the most boring vehicle Iv'e ever owned. Nothing ever goes wrong with it.

I have the 4.7 liter V8. The only negative, the gas mileage sucks, literaly and figuratively. But I have to admit I have a camper on it.

Mecahicaly it is a sound machine. No rattles and no rust. Would I buy another? You bet. And i used to be a Ford guy.

squirrelman, I traded a 2000 ram 1500 on an 04 ram. Not that I needed to just for once because I wanted to. I think you will like the Dodge line. I also had been Ford all my life and believe it or not and this story don't have to start with 'once upon a time' but my tools in my box had to be removed and cleaned because of lack of use.....yes....lack of use....I should of went Dodge years ago....enjoy. and ....knock on wood.
