Today my truck is 13 years old..She was built on Sept. 13, 2000, which also happened to be a Friday the 13th. I am not superstitous but my truck has been the very best and most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. I bought it used, from Carmax on New Year's Eve 2005, it only had 42,000 miles on it and it had all the features I wanted - low miles, extended cab, dark gray interior and a manual transmission. I have 160,300 miles on it now and hope to keep driving it for a long time to come but if it blew up tomorrow I have sure enough gotten my money's worth and then some...

Happy Birthday to my Dakota!
