2002 Dodge Dakota - Tough

I liked how the truck was small enough to be gas efficient, yet tough enough to get some real work done. I used it to commute to work and some hard hauling. I cut firewood for the winter, and I hauled quite a bit with it. The bed was a bit small but I just hooked a trailer on and my truck pulled it with no problem. It was also a quad cab, nothing is better than having a truck that is good on gas, can pull heavy loads, and fit five people.

Story

I had been rear ended by another driver, and it totaled his car, but there wasn't a scratch on my truck.

Pros

My truck has decent gas mileage. Not the best but far from the worst. It can pull like the big boys. The four-wheel drive on it is very nice, and it was my first truck I've owned where I didn't have to get out of the vehicle to lock the wheels. It can take a beating as well; it has a metal body, which I really look forward to in my trucks.

Cons

I had some issues with the brakes. The calipers themselves wore out pretty fast compared to other vehicles I have had. It's very hard to replace anything in the engine as all the parts are so close together. You can barley get a hand in.

2004 Dodge Dakota - Great little work truck.

It's a sturdy, dependable truck. I have almost 250,000 miles on it and it still keeps going. This is my work truck. I haul equipment, construction materials, etc. and it has more than enough room in the bed to fit my needs; but that being said, the interior space is comfortable enough that we are able to use it as a alternate family vehicle. It's a smaller-sized truck, but is comparable to larger pick-up trucks.

Story

Piling all the kids into the truck, camping gear into the bed, and just taking off spur of the moment.

Pros

Small size makes it convenient. Powerful engine means it can haul a trailer with ease. Larger bed size means it can carry larger loads. 5 Passenger seating. 4 wheel drive.

Cons

Back row seating is minimal and uncomfortable for anyone but small children. Continuous problems with the "check engine light" mean going through emissions and inspection is time-consuming and expensive.
