Yet another case where I wish I had a 5.2 in her lol! Plus, the mileage doesn't really suffer that much, but, I was 16 and wanted a cool van, and being in a small town didn't have a lot of options.

That's pretty good! I've taken my Van all the way from Grand Rapids to St. Louis and back (over 1,000 miles), and she ran like a top the whole time! Of course, this was about a year and a half ago. They're just cool to cruise around in! I would love to take it out to California, but that's lots of time, $, and gas...!

How many miles does you Dakota have Shadow? (just curious)

That's awesome! My van only has *I think* around 135,500 miles, while my Dakota has around 171,000

Hey, the name is Mike
I've got a '93 Extended Cab LE
5.2 Magnum 4x4
176,xxx kms
"Fake" Dual exhaust with a Thrush muffler
Had it for over a year now, put in all new speakers, stereo and wires. Fixed some minor rust and repainted the floor. Chrome 6x9 mirrors.
Plan on ordering headers, electric fan for my new rad and water pump, new headlamps and thinking about a 2"-3.5" lift
