1998 Dodge Dakota

Pros: Looks great, handles even better

Cons: I want to use it all the time ...he won't let me.

Review: Go man go. My husband was driving a 1995 Ford pickup, 4 cylinder, 4 speed transmission and boy did he get tired of peddling up these hills. I had been encouraging him to go look at the new Dodge Dakota for over a year. Sooo, one day we looked at them,...

Pros: Good Power and Suspension * Handles Good * Dependable * Stylish

Cons: Mediocre Fuel Economy * Touchy When Going Into Low 4 Wheel

The Bottom Line: On a scale of 1-10 I rate this truck "9" because of it's versatility, reliability and great handling. It would be a 10 if it had better gas mileage.

Review: After owning many cars my wife and I decided to invest in a smaller PU to meet our needs as we found that a car was not adequate to carry bulky items. We test drove trucks including Toyota, Ford, Chevy and finally Dodge. The Dodge was the one that we...

Pros: Totally reliable. No problems at all in the first 18 months of ownership.

Cons: Gas mileage. You can probably get a full sized pu that gets the same mpg.

Review: Hi,

I have read several opinions that stated they were dissatisfied with their Dodge Dakota Club Cab PU's. I've got to tell you that I am the HAPPIEST I have ever been with a new vehicle I purchased.

Throughout the years I have...

Pros: Not enough space, too many to list!

Cons: Getting out of it, I just wanna drive around some times!

Review: I have several friends who are like myself, true blue brand loyal good ole boys! They all have their fords, gmc's, toyota's, and whatever else they try to compare, and my 98 dakota club v6 has outlasted all of them.

I have read several other...

Pros: comfortable, spacious cabin; nice ride

Cons: fuel economy, lack of four doors

Review: I purchased a 1998 Dakota Club Cab new in July, 1998. I previously had been a diehard Japanese nameplate owner and I researched this vehicle extensively before buying. The research paid off and I've been remarkably impressed with nearly every facet of...

Pros: Very fast

Cons: Too light in the rear

Review: I bought my Dakota new in the spring of 98. And i have been happy with it ever since. It's black with a 3.9 liter V6, it has a 5 speed manual transmission and is a blast to drive. It performs extremely well for a truck and is very fast with excellent...

Pros: Too many to list

Cons: I don't own two

Review: I purchased my 1998 Dodge Dakota because I was looking for a truck that wasn't full sized and was American made. I liked the Dakota's 6 1/2 foot bed, longer than the competition.

I went to Thomas Dodge in Orland Park, IL (if you want a car,...

Pros: Tough, Powerful, Handles great

Cons: Seats can be uncomfortable at times

Review: I purchased my 1998 Dodge Dakota in Sept. '97. Ever since then I've used it from everything from the short drive to the long, and I mean long, several state highway drive and the bed has had everything from landscaping materials to a college dorm room...

Pros: Rides like a lux car

Cons: wish I would of gotten a bigger cab.

Review: WOW! This is a pickup!? I'd been looking at pickups for a while, but never could see myself paying big bucks for that payment. When I went to look at the Dakota's I had made up my mind the price was right and I loved the look. After test driving one, I...

Pros: Great truck at an even better price

Cons: Gas Mileage...it's a Dodge

The Bottom Line: I would buy it again...

Review: This truck is fantastic. Ever since buying this truck 10 months ago, it hasn't had one major problem. The only problem it has had, was the fact that we blew a fuse when trying to hook up an old trailer to it. We replaced the fuse, and its ...
