Default new truck

Well as a disappointment the kid that was supposed to sell me his dakota with the lift decided to keep his because he realized how much money he had into and didnt wanna let it go so that screwed me over but i will post pics and show you the lift because idk where he got a 3" suspension from. Anyway i just got this one today its a 2004 Dodge dakota Quad Cab 4.7 with just under 70k on it. I love the truck and it is very very clean, i still kept my 99 5.2 but my old man is gonna be driving it and i am keeping it as a project and wanna do a SAS on it. Anyway i guess let the mods begin for this new truck! any ideas let me know and ill make a list!

thats nice man. i finally got another dakota this past monday and im loving it so far. i work offshore and cant wait to get in and do some more riding. That thing looks pretty sharp stock, what are the things you like? get yourself a lift and rims and tires if it was me.

Nice truck! You will really like the extra room from the QC. I would start with a CAI, muffler, hi flow cat and tint the windows.

i plan on doing different tail lights, getting rid of the shiny grill and put a black one on it putting my clear corner lights on it new tonnau cover on it and body lift, superchips and can't forget about tinting the windows.

thanks guys and the two tone i actually like but personal choice i guess

I actually really like the two tone dakotas, especially the patriot blue/silver ones. Sometimes I wish I got a QC, but sometimes I like the 6.5' bed. I think quad cabs look real nice lifted though.

Nice truck. I like the Patriot Blue and Silver paint scheme, that's what I had on my '03 Ram. Enjoy.

Looks nice I like the 2 tone I think it looks nicer. Looks like my truck only it has 2 extra doors and I have chrome bumpers.
