Default Dodge Dakota MX Warrior

The Dodge Dakota MX Warrior is a design exercise intended for the younger action-sports crowd. This authentic motocross-themed concept is a cooperative effort with Scott Waraniak. Waraniak is a design student at College for Creative Studies in Detroit and AMA District 14 motocross racer #936 who races for KTM North America and Seattle-based Jones Soda.

Motocross is an extreme sport run on closed-course, natural-terrain dirt tracks. Grabbing the holeshot and maneuvering through the ruts, berms, whoops, doubles, 90-foot jumps and 180-degree tight turns demands lightning-fast reflexes, physical conditioning, practice, concentration and speed. Forty racers compete in two 20-minute motos – mixing flying dirt and rocks with intimidation, adrenaline and horsepower. The outdoor motocross season runs from April to September, while the indoor supercross season runs from January through April. The sport continues to grow in popularity particularly with Gen X and Gen Y action-sport athletes in the United States, Europe and Japan.

Suspension is lifted 4"...Skyjacker Suspensions...

Soooooo? That proves they CAN make, and someone HAS made, a lift for our trucks. Where the HELL is it and why don't I have one? :/

Not sure the reasoning behind this post, but ok...

It would be nice to get some aftermarket support though!

I would think gameboy, being new here, doesn't know this subject has been talked about ad nauseam on here since the Warrior came out. This link had quite a few more pics that I'd never seen before though. Too bad all of this stuff is 'one-off' garbage that will never be produced for our trucks.

After looking over the pics more it's obvious that the lift they used is a body kit, not suspension. Even still, I think I'd even be happy with that over the 2WD look my "4WD Off Road" Dak is SUPPOSED to be.

it is a one off for the dakota. after all has been said and done, they take these vechicles and crush them. it is just a concept. kinda sucks, and the funny thing is. the new suzuki equator that came out, already has a line of performance and aftermartket stuff out there

That's because the new Suzuki Equator is the old Nissan Frontier.
