1998 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"A blast to drive, but don't buy it if you don't like being out of pocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What has gone wrong with the truck.. uhmm new water pump, A arms, CV joints, front left and right hub assemblies, new bushings and bearings in front left and right, and a new starter.
General comments?
OK, so even though everything mechanical possible went wrong with the truck.. I'm not going to recommend buying a Dodge to anyone.. even though I did it..
The truck is awesome, it's quick, handles good and has a good ride.. so much fun to drive, not to mention you'll smoke every other stock truck in its class haha.
