Smile Nice just what Im thinking of

Nice just what I’m thinking of but you must admit your Dakota looks so good that Gen of Dakota is the all-time best looking mid-size truck IMO.

I plan to keep my Dakota so I will have two trucks when I get my Ram 1500 but I still want economy is the V6 in the Ram 1500 any good?

Im a city Truck user I dont need all that power or 4X4

i would give up my truck with no hesitation for a 2nd or 3rd gen cummins. now how much was the killing on it? its crazy seeing the huge difference between how much wider a ram is then a dakota as well.

Yeah at least the 2nd gen rams look kinda like the dakotas. I cant really saw how the v6 ram does but I know when you compare the hemi vs the 4.7 in power/mpg the hemi is way better.

Yeah I wanted one for a long time! And they are a lot bigger inside its a huge difference when coming from a dak. I got it for 12k + my dakota so both sides made out pretty much.
