RE: Dodge Announces Pricing for All-New 2005 Dakota:
I have yet to see any 05 dakota on a dealers lot below $23K. Heck, I have yet to see more than 1 ext cab on a lot at one time. All teh dealers up here carry is mainly crew cab 4wd's. THen again, its not like I will buy one in the first place.

RE: Dodge Announces Pricing for All-New 2005 Dakota:
I own a 05 Laramie QC. I love it. Drives really smooth compared to my old 99 Sport. Either way, I love the Daks and will probably continue to buy them in the future. My only bitch is, they under power the truck comparatively speaking to some of their other vehicles.
