2003 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"Surprised by the fit, finish, and overall quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing wrong with truck at 13,000 miles plus. Have tough drive from high desert in to LA and back. Total of 82 miles, and am routinely getting 19 MPG.
General comments?
Truck simply feels solid. Excellent rode feel for a truck, with a pretty good ride. The 4.7 engine appears to be very reliable. Interior is quiet.
