Used 2000 Dodge Dakota Club Cab 4WD for Sale near Taylor, TX

Performance- Acceleration is great, thus far i've smoked all contenders off the line, but she tops out at only about 118-120. Brakes are very good, but the handling suffers ever so slightly due to ride hignt. I prefer the 2wd version. Quailty- She is built very strong, however I question the engineer's defenition of functionaity as far as interior bells and whistles are concerned. Also, the oil filter is very awkard to get to. Appearence- She is beautiful, she shines inside and out :) Cost of ownership- I average around 20 mpg, but i can get 22 with fresh filters all around. This is practicly a zero maintanance vehicle besides gas and oil changes. Fun factor- She is a blast to drive, and the Infinity sound system is not too bad. However, upgrading the subs in the back will yeild very potent results.

The Dodge Dakota is one of the best if you are looking for a mid sized pickup, its not to big and its not to small. mine has the 287 4.7L v-8 so it has pretty good acceleration although it could be better. I think that the truck handles pretty good on just about any kind of surface except gravel roads that have that washboard effect on them, then it handles horrible. The build quality of the truck overall seems to be pretty good although i have noticed that my tailgate does squeak and rattle and it is annoying when you have the rear sliding window open. I think the styling of the truck inside and out is pretty good and i dont think i would change anything on the outside of the truck. The gas mileage is not to bad on the highway as long as you are going about 60mph-65mph you will see 16-24mpg depending on how flat the road is and how much wind there is. However if you are going to go 75mph-80mph on the interstate dont plan on seeing anything better than 15mpg. Gas mileage in town all depends on how much acceleration you want when the light turns green, my average for in town is about 14mpg. My truck is 4x4 which makes it a pretty fun vehicle to drive when it snows of when you go off-road, however if you are going to be off-roading a lot in this truck i would plan on getting some mud tires because before i got my mud tires i found it easy to get my truck stuck. Now that i have had these new mud tires on it i have not been stuck once.

Able to go places that I am shocked that it can go. Could use the bigger V-8. Fuel economy is by far not the greatest. Fun in the snow, mud, going over logs, and climbing over small boulders. The tires mean everything

It has lots of cab room for the family and hauling stuff. The bed doesn't fit a four wheeler unless the doors down, so that sucks.

This was my 2000 Dodge Dakota. I had it for two years and loved every minute of it!! I miss it soo much! I should have never gotten rid of it. Balls to the wall everyday and never had a problem!
