I own an 06 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab SLT with Magnum V8 2WD currently w/ 77,690 miles. Still drives like new w/ engine & transmission working smoothly. My only complaint about this truck compared to the newer ones is the mileage. I average about 18 MPG combined city/hwy. I heard the newer mid size trucks gets about 28 city & 35 hwy. But since I kept this truck in near new condition & the exterior body style still looks fairly relevant and up to date, I probably will keep it for many more years.

06 Quad cab 3.7 w auto. 2wd. slt 196000+ miles. Bought with 27k on truck. Transmission at 125k, still going ok. Switch box in at 195k. Fan on A/C is intermittent and steering assist has always been sketchy but used to it. Has ben very reliable over all. with almost 200k it still goes down the road and looks pretty good. Clearcoat is still v good and no rust that we can tell. Has been parked outside its entire life. But keep it fairly clean. Would get another but might opt for the v-8.

Engine light and transmission light come on intermittently for no reason. May stay on for hours or several days with no mechanical problem. Put in 2 transmissions, radiator, 3 TCMs and a module and it still does it. Last time transmission went in to "safe mode" yet nothing wrong with transmission or engine and prognosis by Dodger engineer is "it needs a TCM". Not possible but afraid to drive truck. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!

This is the best vehicle, I have ever owned. Just rolled over 200k, and the the only services required: fuel and water pumps, exhaust system muffler and tail pipes, one front hub, and brakes, pads only. Great power, and gets 14 locally, and 17 on the road with a Hemi. 4 wd has been perfect, paint perfect, no rust. I replaced a Suburban with my Dodge. Dramtatic upgrade.

Just bought this truck used and so far I really like it. Had a 2000 sport with the Mercedes 4.7 and just loved it. I bought it used and drove it for 7 years and then, like a fool sold it to my son and he is still driving it. Its got near 200,000 and has not had any major problems. The tranny, an automatic, has never had any work done on it and is still going fine. I used to be a Chevy man but have owned a few dodges and am sold on them.
