Pros: Great acceleration and handling, no silly jump seats, closest thing to a V8 compact truck. Cons: Iffy Chrysler build quality, poor wet traction The Bottom Line: An excellent value... a tight suspension, aggressive wheels and tires, a muscle-car engine, and even some real hauling capacity to boot.
Greetings, epinions readers, it’s my pleasure to be writing my first opinion under the ‘new system.’ Fittingly, in these times of great change, the subject of this latest review is a truck that revolutionized the compact pickup market with its redesign...

Pros: smooth ride, excellent acceleration, sleek looks, plenty of leg room and passenger space Cons: gas mileage The Bottom Line: If your looking for a dependable truck with plenty of leg room for that extra person in the back, this is the one.
This review is on the 2001 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab Plus not on the regular 2001 Dodge Dakota, this was as close as I could get under the Dodge truck category..my apologies.

Pros: Safe, Powerful, and Nice Cons: none The Bottom Line: This truck is a thrill to dodge and i strongly suggest going and looking at one if your looking for cars.
The 2001 dodge dakota is a great truck. It handles very nicely for a truck. Not like other trucks where its wet out and the bed swings out of control from you. This truck is a sharp looking truck also. It has a lot of power if you like power and its...

Pros: Best looking small or mid size truck. Inside or out. Cons: gas mileage and tie downs in bed of truck The Bottom Line: To date I would have no trouble recommending the Dakota to anyone. It is quiet,solid, nice handling and beautiful.
We bought the club cab with the V-6 and automatic transmission. A full size truck was bigger than my wife and I wanted to handle. Going from dealer to dealer looking at all the other small trucks. It left us with the opinion that for what we were looking...

Pros: Extra cargo area, streamlined design (destined to be a classic) and descent budget features Cons: Low Gas mileage, sluggish 3.9 V6, and needs more creature
comfort options The Bottom Line: Compare this vehicle to all others you were considering, before deciding which one to buy; I think you'll return to your dealership to get another view
The overall truck is a nice package for the dollar. 4 doors is a great addittion whether you have a family or not. I use practically every inch of this vehicle for all my crap. I opted for the Infinity sound system, I probably would have saved about ...

Pros: Smooth ride for a 4x4, looks great, decent gas mileage Cons: None The Bottom Line: Highly recommend this truck to anyone wanting a truck, but not needing a full-size model. It's the complete package without costing a fortune.
Why a Dodge Dakota?
For the past three years, I'd been ogling Dodge Dakota trucks, either on the TV commercials or on showroom floors, waiting for the day I could finally get one. I don't know exactly what the appeal is but something about...

Pros: Smooth ride, great price, V6 has plenty of power, quad cab is great! Cons: Wind noise at freeway speeds. Rear seats not comfortable for long trips The Bottom Line: For the price this is an excellent buy. The truck is solid, comfortable, and versatile. Perfect truck if you have kids! Seating in the back for 3.
We have only had the truck a couple months but really love it. Its larger than the Rangers, yet not a huge truck. Easy to park and it has NO blind spots. Great truck! The rear windows roll all the way down, which is nice. The front passengers have plenty...
