2004 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"A strong, comfortable workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with this truck.
General comments?
It is a Quad Cab 4x4. It has more room than most of its competitors, including Toyota Tacoma and Nissan Frontier. The ride is smoother compared to the Toyota and Frontier, too. The V8 engine is very powerful. However, since it is a V8, it can be thirsty at the pump. Yet, the power, responsiveness, and size more than makes up for the lower gas mileage.
