I bought a 1980 Chevy C-10 for $1700 with a built 350, done a little work to the motor. I found my 90 dakota and went to look at it. The guy liked my chevy and wanted the motor to put in a dirt track car. I ended up trading the motor for my Dakota. I turned around and sold the chevy body for $1500. The Dakota was a 90 sport with factory roll bar with lights, 3.9 5speed 4x4. It had 126,000miles on it when I traded and it was a 1 owner. I removed the roll bar and lights and it now has 192,000miles on it.

 

I paid $5k for my 1996 3 years ago, it had 49k miles on it. It has 74k on it now.

 

1500 3yrs ago 110K miles 1994 Dakota

 

paid 800 for my 1993 and had to get the tranny rebuilt for about 600, and about 200 give or take for sensors and other parts. not a bad deal but i could have bought a dakota from my aunt and uncle for 100 but would have had to about rebuild the engine.

 

Bought in Dec. 09 for $1200, 1996 Dakota 2wd ext cab. 3.9l 5-speed. 160K Runs Great, just lots of wiring issues that im going through.

 

$2500 can 5 months ago with 21000km still running strong.

 

$400, the wire going to the side of the trans was rubbing on the heat shield and after the truck would warm up it was buck really bad, fixed it and ran great for about 2 and 1/2 years til last summer but i think ive figured it out and it is still a great truck..

 

i got mine from my dad 3 years ago for $500. he had from new and it was my first truck and now its waiting for a lot of work, not because it has too but i want a 360. it has 279,000 miles and still runs like a top, just makes alot of noises

 

I bought mine new in 1992 for $18K. Sold it for $300 when the transmission went out at 324,000+ miles fifteen years later. Man I miss that truck.

 

my dad paid $200 for my 93 dakota club cab 318v8 back in 2005 it had 120k miles on it with absolutely no rust on it at all it was mint. then he gave it to me in 08 with 130k miles. as of today(3/8/10) it has 196,952 miles and is starting to rust
