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. I miss it very much

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.

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 ...

Cmon... so far this thread has not stooped to the 'your brand sucks' level. Let's keep it that way, Mr. Fix Or Repair Daily.
