I can't believe how many looks this truck gets....I love rockin' to Van Halen and Tears For Fears in this truck. On the satellite radio, my favorite station is 80s on 8, love it!

Just got back from the dealer, and ITS MINE!!!!! Spent most of the afternoon just driving around, and received looks and thumbs up everywhere I went. $20,500 out the door.....not too shabby for a loaded Hemi 4x4. It was indeed a dealer package. It is actually a left over 09 model (I just assumed it was an '11) that they had on display in their showroom all this time until last week when they moved it on their lot. The truck was never for sale before last week! I got all the aftermarket equipment at dealer cost which means it only added about $3,000 to the base price of the truck.....plus they took more off since it is an 09 and can be considered close to 2 years old. (good to have friends at dealerships!) Still brand spankin new though!
good job so you get the lifetime powertrain warranty!!!! Did you take it on the highway to check for wobble? How many miles were on it? I know it was new but I am sure it went home with a salesman or two...no biggy just curious . It will be fun.

I think thats pretty cool, I was born in '63 so I actually drove trucks like that in the 80s. I bought an '88 Dakota Sport new and I owned that thing for 8 years before the salt start getting to it - great truck. I like it, good price it seems.

Yep took it on highway, no wobble at all. Only had 30 miles on it! Yes it has a lifetime powertrain warranty too! You are lucky kpevin I wish I could have drove those 80s trucks when they were new!

Dont forget the tailgate net and flat black nerf bars
I wish I had some pics of my old custom painted '84 ramcharger, it had a good sized lift and was pretty cool back in the day.
Honestly I dont have a lot of fond memories for 80s cars/trucks, I lived in the rust belt at the time and they all rotted away pretty quick. But I did think that Dakota Sport was damn cool, everyone liked that little truck.

Its kinda basic with manual locks and crank windows, but it does have cloth seats, carpet, cruise control, and cd player with satellite radio. Also the dash center stack and a/c vent trim surrounds are painted body color. Thats ok by me as it is less stuff to go out.....which will keep my truck out of the service department and on the road more.
