my friend has a dakota sport 4cyl manual hes wanting to sell for 1000.

his uncle wrecked into a tree, ****ed up the bumper, radiator fan, and windshield. he gave it to my friend, and hes had it for about a year. right now it has both the windows off the track, and power steering needs to be replaced(including the previous problems). on the upside it only has 120k miles.

y/n?

 

stay the F!@ck away.

 

i can understand why you would say that, but why exactly? as long as there is no frame damage, the wreck shouldnt affect anything other than the aforementioned problems, right? and it has extremely low mileage and considering i have to drive 70 minutes to and from work every day, thats pretty important.


right now, i am dead broke, and he will let me pay off it off over the next month or so. he has used it over the past year and not had any major problems... but whatever, i came here knowing you guys would know better than me.

 

3.9 is a pos.

 

what? this is a 4cyl.. and i would never get a v6/v8 where i live.. MAYBE a v6 if it got really good mileage.

 

oh shoot sorry,

 

still stay away. the 4-banger is severely overworked in our heavy trucks. its 18/23 mpg is nothing to brag about.

 

yeah.. but 23 still aint bad, and with my price range i dont think i could do much better with what i got.

 

Get a tempo if you want gas mileage for that price.

 

i could rattle off several cars you can find for under $2k that get near 30mpg.
