i was reading a lot of hype about the v6 diesel dakota to come out in 09 then they postponed to 2011. now it seems their not planing on it at all i was reading in alpar about how the plan to go to a lifestyle truck renaiming it and putting it on a minivan chasis to compete with ford ranger and the honda ridgeline. also if you pull up lifestyle truck you will find vehicles more like the elcamino and subaru baja WTF! if i wanted a car id buy one

The Honda Ridgeline is soon to be just as gone as the Dakota.

yes but the Honda Ridgline sucks though who buys a truck that doesn't even make a good car. The Dakotas will only suck if dodge keeps being increasingly incompetent. I own a dodge dakota 1993 I love it only because its not my daily driver because my 318 gets like 12 mpg. if they put a diesel in it instant 25-30mpg truck . and i will buy one in a heart beat.

There still could be a V6 cummins Ram on the market. I still don't understand why Chrysler pulled it. Ah yes, they went bankupt.
Honda does make a decent car, but there Rideline with its unibody and Accord engine is crap.

I have owned 3 dakotas over the years and have said this same thing since day 1. A diesel dakota would get over 20 city and 30 highway and would be just a great vehicle. Dodge is worried though, they don't want the dakota competing with Ram sales, so instead of making it cheaper like it used to be, they will just get rid of it. I have been toying with the idea of putting in the older 12v cummins in a dakota for a while but have never thought it would be worth the investment.

Probably not worth the hassel. Did you know that (althought it's been done before), that was some serious weight on your front tries.
Here the problem with today's auto market, the are Roman type of Government headed by a type of Caesar are putting as much pressure with there EPA regulations (that’s out of control like the mainstream media)has been given to much power to regulate the type of mileage and carbon that a car or truck should emit. Sure, I to am for a clean environment but not with taken such extreme measures just to try to clean the atmosphere
