So what did you pay for you Dakota?
'97 Dakota SLT Ext. Cab (LOADED TO THE HILT w/ factory accessories). 4X2 3.9L V6 197,*** miles. Paid 1800 and spend about 250 to get it legal. Ran it for about 7 months until some DEE DEE DEE stopped in the middle of a highway and I ran off the road. Hit a guardrail and did some body damage and must have hit the tranny something awful. Cause it **** the bed two days later.
My '01 Regular Cab, shortbed with the 3.9. I got it for $6,000 with 73,000 miles on it. Not the most nimble thing in the world, but it gets up and goes where i need it. Sure doesn't take much throttle to spin the 30x9.5's over.
I got my 2007 Dakota on 12/28/08.

2007 Dakota Laramie 4.7 v8 Flex Fuel Quad cab 4x4 with TR4 package. It had 15948 miles at time of purchase. Got it for $17,400.00
with 20,000 miles left on factory waranty. Here is a scan of the factory list!!

Just bought a 1999 extended cab, 4x4, 5.2, 5 speed, 9.25 rear end, k&n intake, edelbrock headers, underseat subwoofer box, virginia truck (no rust), 125k miles, brand new clutch. Paid $1000. The guy had a brand new clutch in it then one day it wouldnt shift. The dealer told him he needed a new transmission. All I did was bleed the hydraulic clutch system. So far put about $400 in brakes, tune-up, and fluid changes.
