"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.

My 1999 v6 3.9l gets terrible mileage. I think on the showroom sticker (I'm original owner), it said 19 City, 21 Highway mpg. No matter where or how I drive, I get between 13.5 AND 14.5 mpg. When I inquired at the dealer shortly after I bought it, they checked it out and told me "everything is normal". If you have heard of any possible solution to this problem, please email me, Randy.Bergen@comcast.net.

Well, I own the same make and model as yours, but I have checked and it gets around 26 on the highway cruising at 75, but in the city it gets 14.

I just got the truck about 2 years ago, and I have never had any problems on it besides the bad gas mileage. Great truck for outdoor activities, and to just have a little fun in mud with. Best truck I have had in my entire life. And I have had 3 Chevy's 2 Fords, and 3 tToyota's. Best truck ever a must have.
