2002 Dodge Dakota 4 Dr Sport 4WD Crew Cab SB Review
ProsLots of Power! ConsNot the greatest on gas.

Dakota Review — I absolutely love my truck because it has lots of power but it is not the cheapest on fuel. The quality of the truck is fairly good as it has higher kilometers but still has no leaks or sweats under the truck. Also the truck has a canopy on it that is good in the winter but not so much in the summer. Hopefully soon it will have a spray-in box liner and the canopy will be off.

Dodge Dakota Quad Cab Good Compromise For Families. — I would highly recommend the Dakota Quad Cab for those who need a pickup and room for passengers. Sometimes you need both, and the Dakota Quad Cab does the job. It rides like a truck but there is plenty of room for you and the kids, or you and some friends. The dog or camping gear can ride in the back. Primary Use: Family transportation | ||

ProsLooks, performance, stock features ConsBraking
195
2002 Dodge Dakota — This truck feels very solid. It handles just the same way, very strongly and with plenty of power from the V6 engine. Braking requires a bit more distance than normal since they are disc brakes instead of ABS. Styling inside and out is great. The gas milieage for a truck is about average, normally gettting into the mid 20's. It's a fun truck to drive, and a great truck to own for work or play. | ||

Best Pickup In Its Class! — I love it, its got 105k and it still performs like it did when i bought it new. only complaint i have is the crome on the rear bumper is flaking off. Also started to rust through . People say the bed is too short but with a short bed truck you never have to help anyone move. | ||

Powerful — Love this truck I've had it for a long time and I've put a lift on it mud tires on it! This thing can get you out of anything! We got the v8 and it works great! I don't like the front anymore but it's still got me to buy it. Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) | ||

ProsEVERYTHING! ConsGas milage-I've added just over 200 horsepower to it and its increased to about 22 mpg highway, so its not so bad anymore if you're willing to put some time and money into it

Buy It And Don't Look Back! — This truck has never let me down. It has the "Mighty" Magnum v6 that is bored out, have a whole slew of performance items done and audio options, and only gets better and better. Its so reliable, has the balls to get up out of its own way with 1000 pounds in the bed no problem! Built awesome, fun little truck to own and drive!
