Well Yes, No, Sort of........
If your taking about the K&N drop-in for the stock box some stores might carry it in stock but more than likly you will have to order it or any K&N product for a Dakota, The Drop-in will help your truck breath better, your Butt Dyno won't know the difference unless you include some other mods....Muffler, TB, RR's etc.etc......
I have the K&N FIPK for the 5.2-5.9 V8's on my truck it looks great but it is a little pricey for no more HP you get out of it.

The slickest setup I've seen yet is from DeepPurple he took the elbow off his stock air box, enlarged the hole and routed a hose to the front of the grill (where the littler rubber flap is/was) for cooler air. I'm not sure but I think he did this with a Drop in K&N, you might e-mail him for more specifics.

I just went to the parts store and grabbed one off the shelf. Improvement was pretty good. I don't regret the $40 upgrade. got about 5000 mi on it. There is a foam prefilter I want to get for it to keep the element cleaner longer.
