We were given an extended cab 4x4 almost three years ago when we were desperate and our friends had just gotten a new truck. It had over 200,000 miles and they thought we'd be lucky to have it last a year. It's still going despite us letting another friend, who kills cars, drive it most of the time. We've had work done on the radiator after it ran into something, and the power steering. I think it's going to fall apart from rust before it dies mechanically. The tailgate no longer has the supports where it is supposed to pivot, the wheel wells are rusty, recently the driver side mirror fell off, and the rear license plate holder is falling off.

I purchased my Dakota in November of 1998, and will be selling it just short of 70,000 miles. I do so not because I've been disappointed with the pickup, but because returning to college makes it necessary. I've averaged just short of 16mpg, at 15.9, with a short list of modifications. They of course helped with the power, also, so, they're a great investment. Intake, headers, new exhaust. Do it, you'll like the results.
My '99 Dakota - What was I thinking??!!

Here is the scoop: There are countless sqeaks and rattles coming from under the hood. The right front wheel has not been right from the start as I constantly hear a thump when I turn. When applying the brakes the truck shutters like an out of whack washing machine. The tires, oh the tires, they are HORRIBLE. Even on dry blacktop, when turning I slide. The interior is less than impressive and the gear selector blocks the temperature controls. The extended cab seat is only good for people with 12" legs. Do yourself a favor and stay away if you value your life.
