I had an 02 or 03 rental Dakota 4x with the v-8. Very impressive power. Even took it out wheeling and it would do some serious stuff before locking in the 4x was necessary. Still like my GMC better, but I'd take a Dodge if I had to.bearrickster wrote:I had a 2002 Dakota excab 2wd with a 4.7 and 3:55 gears it would smoke any Mustang from the light. what a blast to drive.

Re: Advice on a New Pickup Truck
Drove a 6 banger Durango, what a pig! I could get out and walk up hills faster than that pile. If it would have had the v8 that the Dakota had, I can see where it would have been a decent rig.
BTW, all I said is that I like my GMC better, not knocking the Dodge at all.
At least you didn't say that dirty F word ...

The preceding contained opinions, beliefs and thoughts that all may not agree with. No offense was intended at any point. Carry on.
