1999 Dodge Dakota Sport review from North America
"Very comfortable truck, and roomy, gas hog"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My 1999 Dodge Dakota has to be the gas guzzler of the year. This vehicle is very comfortable, but we cannot keep an automatic transmissions in it.
General comments?
This a very comfortable truck, but it loves gas.
This truck is very bad on transmissions.
In the past month, we have put three transmissions in it.
