Used 1994 Dodge Dakota for Sale near New Haven, CT
Once again, the Dodge Dakota has to be first at everything. Rack and pinion, V8 engine, anti-lock brakes. In 1994, the Dakota is the first pickup to install a driver's side airbag. Additional safety measures included side door guard beams and extra knee padding. Not that the Dakota necessarily needed it. Most drivers proclaim its sturdiness, both truck and passengers able to emerge unscathed from accidents and collisions with animal, vegetable, or mineral.
The 1994 Dakota's engines had a slight decrease in horsepower, with the 3.9-liter V6 reduced from 180 to 175-hp, and the V8 down ten horsepower to 220-hp. The V8 is still the favorite, despite its poor fuel economy. It turns this mid-size truck into a full-size cargo hauler, able to compete with the big boys. And it's fun to drive. The roomy cab makes for a comfortable ride, with optional bucket and split-folding seats. The rear bench is cramped, but offers extra storage under the seats. New this year is a high-mounted center brake light in the rear. WS trim (Work Special) replaced the SE, and the LE trim was renamed SLT.
2WD comes standard and 4WD is optional, and Dakota drivers compliment its off-road handling. Along with high marks for safety, comfort, and dependability, low marks were given for the wide turning radius and repair record.
4 Overall rating
(36 reviews)Great ride height w/ excellent visibility. Comfortable ride; Huge turn radius (full length bed w/ ext-cab); fuel mileage in town suffers; 172-k miles and virtually NO squeaks or rattles! (SOLID). I intend to bring this ubit back to showroom condition as there is superficial body damage and interior wear. Mechanically sound. The radio problem has me stumped.
Loved this truck! Amazing quality in a vehicle. Drove it all over. Got about 14-16mpg. Ran like a beast, fast, strong, could pull. Didnt get stuck to easily even with 2wd. Driving this truck was really fun. Great truck, anyone looking at one should buy it.
Muscle truck, baby! This one had the Magnum 5.2L V8 with a 5-speed manual transmission, regular cab, short bed, with no power options or even air conditioning! Lightest possible truck with the biggest possible engine. It didn't stop there either...I added a lot to it in the performance department. Cam, roller rockers, headers, performance PCM, ported and polished throttle body (did it by hand), 3" Gibson exhaust, and a lot of other things that I can't think of right now. Eventually, I got bored with it, and decided to get something more practical. It sure was fun blowing the doors off all the little rice rockets with a seemingly stock appearing pickup truck! This thing was the ultimate sleeper!
I bought my truck when it already had 100,000 miles on it and it was going strong then and although it's showing it's age and mileage is still trying it's best to get me to work every day which is a 75 mile one-way trip. It's been a really good truck. I've had one other Dodge Dakota in my life and I remember that one as being really good as well.
great trucks had four of them they take lots of abuse,only had to replace the rear diff,looks good, drives good, comfy interior,gets about 750km to the tank of gas, very fun to drive make sure to get the v8 it makes the truck.
