2003 Dodge Dakota RT

This is my friends beautiful 2003 dodge Dakota r/t. He’s owned the vehicle for 14 years and keeps it in showroom condition. It probably belongs in a museum.

Nice to see one of these in pristine, factory condition. Very nice.

Looks even better in person, Chris.

Just got a 1999 RT club cab 5.9L for less than $5k with 129k miles. Professionally repainted last year. No rust, solid frame, new heater core, new stereo/speakers, new headlights. I feel like I won the lottery with today's truck prices in our area. Cant wait to get her on the road! I bought her for work, but she's gonna be baby'd.

Right now...like...right, right now....Nice guy, sounds good. What color? Any performance mods done to it?

I had a 01 silver dakota R/T I loved it. Great little truck and tons of fun to drive.

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Nice. I miss the days when they used to build this truck, especially with the R/T badge.

Beautiful truck, I have the twin for it. 88,000 original kms( 54,680 miles) garage stored it's entire life. Same color, original paint. With the exception of mine having the original soft Tonneau cover on it from the factory and leather they look identical. Mint, original examples are becoming quite hard to find.

Hey Glenn. That’s my friend john’s truck (the guy in the video). Sounds nice. I actually sold cars/trucks around the time period and there was a beautiful amber fire pearl coat 2000 sitting in the showroom for a few months, 17 inch chrome and the leather seats (ironically had the hard tonneau cover as well). I teach driver training and an old student of mine’s father had one with a body kit on it and a few things done aftermarket. Those were about the two nicest in a town of about 70,000 people at the time. So I know exactly what you’re talking about, thanks for stopping by. I have an ‘03 ford crown vic interceptor that I’m going to be posting soon, stay tuned.

Hello! I'm from Brazil and I'm a big fan of this model. Here in my country, we had the Dakota R / T with a 318 5.2 liter engine. Your friend's car is really new. Congratulations on the content. Very nice!

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Hello Diego. Thanks for telling me that. I often forget what’s available out there in the world and what manufacturers do for different countries. It’s probably top 10 condition for the country, it’s basically new. My friend is meticulous when it comes to this truck. Big compliment for your country, home of the great Ayrton Senna and soon to be great...Diego Higa. Higa won the Netflix special “hyperdrive” motor vehicle stunt show, if you haven’t seen this you should check it out. Have a good one.

[@diegoleitegarage]

Thank you for answering my friend! Really Ayrton Senna will always be remembered as one of the best drivers in the world! You Americans should be proud of the Ken block, for sure it inspires this generation of Diego Higa! A hug and have a nice day!@@rubbersidedown9013

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Diego Leite right on, have a good one.

[@keithburdge7453]

The bed cover came with a soft. I had 3 of these.

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Soft tops or trucks?? Or both!?

[@jasongaumont5099]

Love it

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Nice. 👍

[@gknettel22]

He ever wants to sell that you got a buyer right here

[@swoosh50]

What's the mileage on this r/t?

[@rubbersidedown9013]

swoosh50 Yo swoosh, I can’t remember exactly. I have a 2003 dodge sx 2.0 which is 114,000 km and I’m fairly certain that his is right around that. It’s never driven in winter.

[@johnson7454]

Nice truck, loose the 5% merch

[@rubbersidedown9013]

Yeah, the truck is dope. Not a fan of Rich Piana?

[@whoknew..]

Wanna sell it yet lol
