I used to have a gold 2005 Dakota with the V8 Magnum. It was a fun truck to drive and I miss it. My uncle bought it off the lot back in 2005 and it was in the family since. Sold it to a friend and bought a 2017 1500 a couple years ago but the Dakota is missed fasho!

Just bought the same model as you, except with the quad cab and in 4x4z Vehicle has over 100k miles on it, so I’m really hoping I don’t regret my purchase and can afford the gas. The dealership is fixing the power steering and a few other things before bringing me the truck. But I needed something to get me back into the mountains. Which Tonneau cover is that?

Good choice! I have been very happy with mine! I have heard that they like to leak transmission fluid, but isn’t that hard of a fix. Mine hasn’t had an issue with that tho. When I picked up my truck, (in video) it had 113,000 miles (181,800 KM) on it.

Really torn between a 96 Dodge Ram SLT 2500 v10 with 180k miles or one of these 05 Dakotas with 230k miles. 230 seems HIGH
@neavo84212 жыл бұрын
For what its worth, I picked up my 2000 Dakota 4.7 Sport with 180k miles on it and then took it on a 10 hour round trip to a lake that has very very deep sand that a ton of people get stuck in. Its not lifted but has plenty of tire surface and using only street tires I had no trouble driving in 4wd in the deep sand. From the camp site to the waters edge is about 1.5 miles of pure sand, and it made that trek multiple times a day back and forth. The engine sounds healthy, it drives straight all the time, I get about 16-18mpg and its more than a solid truck. Ice and snow so far is a breeze. 230k does seem like a lot, but if the truck runs this healthy at 180k, and with only standard maintenance I dont think another 50k is going to do much. Even at 22 years old the truck is worth keeping, the transmission is auto but when that goes I intend on replacing it myself, and same with the transfer case. I should note that I have not had any issues with the 4x4 or transmission yet. So far its the best truck Ive owned, and Ive owned Ram 1500s and F150s.

my 05 Dakota Slt 4x4 was bought new. biggest piece of shit I've ever owned. from 2012 to 2020 its cost me $13,000 in repair costs.. constant suspension issues and every repair i swore would be the last. the transmissions in these things are utter crap!! it was garaged all its life so its clean. If I had a do over i would of dumped it in 2012. I had a 90 omni i bought and you couldn't kill it.. it did 0-60 in like 15 seconds but nothing went wrong with it.
