great truck, does everything a full size does. I carry at the least 500/700 ilbs of tools daily, great performer. Only issue is there is a 4by sensor moduale failures on some vehicles. At speed the transfer case wants to engage 4by, dangerous and tranny damaging. if you notice this happening disconnect the electrical feed to the transfer case electric motor and go 2by until you can have it serviced.

Bought the truck new and still have it. It has been very dependable. It pulls trailers very well. The only two complaints I have is the turning radius is very wide and the fuel economy is not good.

I bought this truck with the 8 cyl new in 2005. It has been a great truck mine has 122 and has the same breaks. Great ride with some weight in the bed. Interior cloth seats could have used better material but overall no major complaints.

my 05 Dakota is actually a great running MV
PROS; good strong running reliable good looking nice interior for a base truck Chrysler is know for dependable Starters and alternators . and this the ac still works awesome not bad for almost 9 years old i had to replace oxy sensor cam sensor serp belt rotors and all ball joints still not bad there is some rust starting in rear wheel wells. this truck is Atlantic blue.
Cons; not much power in the 3.7 . dont like the rust starting gas cap is sensative if not all the way on ill throw a code. easy to fix though !
I would buy

Bought this truck new in 2005 and have had it for 7 years and 7 months so far. It is still PERFECT! Only faults it ever had was the same since it was new. First Dodge could have put more insulation in the roof. In a heavy rain it is loud inside. Second the turning radius is pretty big. This makes it hard to park in tight places. And third the rear shocks are made for loads so they have a tendency to "bounce" the back of the truck when unloaded. It''s a REAL truck with excellent power safety versitility etc. If you find one buy it. You will not be disappointed.
