1994 Dodge Dakota WS review from North America
"One tough work truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Was purchased from original owner with blown head gasket, motor was driven twenty to thirty minutes with stuck thermostat. It was a quick, cheap, and simple repair.
General comments?
This truck has taken more abuse than any ten vehicles should ever see.
It has carried loads in excess of 3000 pounds, and pulled trailers weighing over 6000 pounds.
It's not very happy on the highway, but it does quite well around town and off road.
