Hello:
I am looking for some feedback on the new '05 Dakota. I put a deposit on a club cab 4.7 4x4 today. I traded in my 2000 Dakota 4x4. I could not pass up the price. Toyota and Nissan wont budge from the sticker price. They are nice trucks but I feel you still get a lot for your money with the Dakota. Any thoughts or opinions? Thanks

I've put 3800 miles on mine already. About the only things that bug me are the 4x4 switch location (I wish it were swapped with the airbag shutoff) and that if I lean too far I can bonk my head on the plastic piece that's on the headliner and arcs around the seatbelt hanger/shoulder adjuster. I love the ride and handling of this pickup and getting ~20 mpg at a steady 65 cruise is nice. The power seems to be pretty decent and the automatic almost always does what I expect of it (once in a while in really hilly country I need to hit the Tow/Haul button.) It cost a little more than the Colorado and Ranger I compared to but those are just dinky little things in comparison. Overall I'm really happy with my pickup.
