Default First Time Poster

Hello Everyone

I'm a first time Poster and a first time Dakota owner. Been browsing this forum for a couple days now and am liking what I'm seeing.

I just purchased a 2009 Dakota 4.7 crew cab and gotta say I like it very much. I started reserching the truck on multiple forums and was surprise to find that a lot of people don't like the new body style. I love the new look.
To each our own I guess.

Are there many differences between the 05's and 09's? I'll be throwing on some goodies very soon and wondering my parts options.

Thanks Much

Lookin good! For alloy wheels, those things are really sharp. I wish my truck had those .... along with the 300hp (rated at the crank ofcourse ) engine.
