Hey guys, I have owned chevys for a long time. But just recently my old truck bit the dust and instead of repairing it i'm going to junk it and get another truck. And there is a 1998, 2wd, 188,000 miles sport package dakota for sale in my area. It looks like a good deal, but i'm not really sure what to look for in a dodge. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone here could let me in on common problems with these trucks. How truly reliable are they to own? What is a good price for one? What is it about them that gets you all to join a forum about them? What could you see in a specific truck that would cause you to not buy it?

Any responses are greatly appreciated!
