2008 Dodge Dakota Review:
I purchased an '08 Dakota 4x4 Quad Cab Laramie with all the trimmings, to replace my aging '00 Dakota Quad Cab SLT (Which replaced my '94 Dakota). I'm impressed with the new front-end design over the previous few years' "duck-bill" front bumper and grill setup (Although I still prefer the "look" of my '00 model the best).
Interior space is still ample enough for my two boys, my wife, and my 6'0", 300-lb bulk rather comfortably on even long trips. We just recently got to put the new Dakota through an icy winter in Missouri, and a long distance trip to Disney World and back with no complaints (Though I DID have a dealer-installed, after-market DVD system installed)... Except that my wife kept stealing the keys from me. *Also- The EPA estimated fuel mileage seemed to be closer to 21-22mpg on the highway*
