mine was a steal of a price, so yes in that regards.

however, i would now prefer a full size V8 4x4, so in that regards, no.

It's a love/hate thing with my Dakota. It has its problems but I love the fact that it is a 4.7 5 speed 4x4. But if I were to buy another truck right now I don't know... I really like the newer Frontier NISMO's. LSD front and rear with electronic locking rear diff from the factory is pretty sweet. I would have to spend thousands to get that setup in my dakota right now. Plus their v6 pushes out 30 more horse then the 4.7 and almost the same amount of torque... but they're only in automatic...

So it's a tough choice...

I'd get myself a 3/4 ton with at least a 6.5' box. I need more hauling capacity. otherwise, dakota all the way
