The SLT is the Dak I want I think that is what they are called would be great do they come in a V6?

It’s all up in the air

I want to run a test with soaking my 2.5 pistons with Magic Mystery oil pull the plugs and poor some down in there let them soak and see what happens they say it can free up stuck piston rings run it a day or two then run the compression test again.

I have seen a number of Dakotas in the empty lots for sale these last few months I live on the outskirts of town lots of empty lots out here and people use them to sell their autos.

Kind of fun out here

Trust me v8 vs v6 the mpg is pretty much the same like 1 or 2 difference. My buddy had a 01 ram 318 5 inch lift 35in tires and he got the same mpg as my truck did. Im now up to 15 on mine which is average in town.
