Default My new to me Truck

I just picked this up, its a 2001 Dakota 4x4 4.7L. 131,000mi. Picked it up for 4800$ Sorry for the Junky cellphone pics. Only think ive done was fix a fuel injector and put new 265/75/R16 Cooper Discoverer STs on her.

Im going to color match the bumper apron and get clear corners. As far as performance, dual exhaust and a CAI is on the list. It is my first 4.7 so im not sure where the worth while and not to expensive mods are.

Here are my dodges of the past as well just for fun. I had the silver Dakota first that I sold to get the Ram. I sold the Ram because I couldnt afford the gas so we bought an 09 avenger. We been driving that until I found this dakota I liked now we have this for me and the Avenger for her.

Nice! All of them! I've decided that my next Dakota will be a 4.7. That probably won't be for awhile though seeing as I only have like 132k on the clock.

yea mopar makes some good rides. I myself have owned a few. 87" Diplomat with the two barel carb on top of the 318, then the 89" two door jeep with the 4.0 gas guz, and the 91" Daytona automatic trans, 2000 Dakota 2.5 5 speed man-trans, and 05" Ram 1500 3.7 6 speed automatic. the diplomat was a lot of fun let me tell ya. when i wanted a lane you gave it to me or lost it to me.
