Sad sad day. I was still hoping they would have made a last ditch effort to show they had some ***** by making a limited edition 500 lot with a 6.3 Hemi, nothing held back in programming. All the same style.. Night Runner.

Maybe in a few years they'll bring back the dakota platform better than it ever was.

I am wondering if they are going to. Kinda like the Durango, gone for a couple of years and then brought back with a SRT trim

The dakota had a great run.

The Raider had a total of 20,285 units sold.

Just in 2005, the dakota sold 104,051 units =D
