2004 Dodge Dakota SLT review from North America
"Great truck, if you actually use it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with my truck, at all.
General comments?
My truck is powerful, fun to drive and has given me no problems.
My only real gripe is the gas mileage. I get roughly 13MPG in-town. I know, I know, you're probably saying "It's a V-8, what do you expect?" and I agree. I'm just sick of dumping $200 a month in gas for trips around town, when I'm hauling something in the bed less than 1% of the time.
Time to get a compact car.
