They Shoulda designed the Dakota like it had ***** -- put a CHARGER front end on it!
Make it look mean and intimidating -- that would increase sales...

RE: Its official America hates the new Dakota!
The Dakota IS ugly. Look at the bumper it sticks out two feet in front of the truck and is way to big. sic! As far as the Charger is concerned that is one sharp looking car. You cant have the new Charger looking like the old one they each have thier place. Dodge could have put a 4 cyl in it!
