  • POWER - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    My Dodge Dakota is a very nice truck for off roading, burning out, and dragging lol. My Dakota has the 5.2l 318 Engine, and she has POWER! That thing can burn down the road if I get on it. Then again I have a K&N cold air intake, dual exhaust, brand new fuel injectors, brand new 2.5l fuel pump of the lower Dakota engine, and platnum tip spark plugs(VIPER SPARK PLUGS). And she maybe makes 300 horsepower. The 2.5l fuel pump cant really keep up with the rpms and some times starves the engine at high rpms. and my fuel mileage is maybe 20 mpg.

  • Hard to let go when the time comes - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    This has been my favorite truck since the day I bought it. No 4wd, and it still kicks every day. The only thing I have had to replace on this truck for a major repair is the radiator. I love the kick in first gear. With a 3.9 Magnum V6, you just dont get any better. I have pulled people out, including my dad, and brought home my first deer with it. It gets us through thick and thin, and has saved our family a couple of times. Shes a tough old bird, and part of the family. Wouldnt want it any other way.

  • Will never part with this truck - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    I got this truck for a steal! It was in horrible condition upon purchase, been in multiple accidents, and was badly beat on. But still ran! Parts are cheap and is easy to repair. Very dependable truck! The LE with the 318 is a powerful work horse. It can tow twice its weight, no problem. It handles great, on and off the road. Fun to drive and quick. My truck has become my addiction. I love customizing this truck. Flowmasters 40 series sound fantastic, by the way.

  • A sad ending to twins - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    Dad bought this red truck used with 100,000 mi when I was in High School. I took it to school b/c of bad weather and ended up totaling it. bought a matching one in blue. and that lasted under very stressful driving including some unexpected offroading that required be to buy a new bed and replace a couple windows. I loved the V8 in that truck great fuel mileage for a v8 pick-up. but alas fate has its marker. She died b/c my father flat-toed her. :( she would have lasted forever and a day if it wasnt for that.

  • Good truck - 1993 Dodge Dakota

    This is one tough truck. 185000 miles and reliable as a new truck. The v6 can put out the power you want even at 14 years old. If you are considering buying go for it.

  • Excellent truck - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    I bought a 93 Dakota in 03 as my first vehicle. I used to love Chevy trucks but now I love Dodge. Being in college my money is a little tight, and with this truck no money goes into repairs. The 3.9 V6 is tough and very reliable. I have towed many of my buddies when they have broken down. Despite my truck being a 2WD it still performs well off road. I spend a lot of time hunting and fishing. I put this truck in bad situations and she still pulls out. I could not be happier with this truck!

  • Best Truck - 1993 Dodge Dakota

    Truck could haul a 2 bedroom apartment from Austin, TX to Waterloo, IA. Very dependable. Nothing major breaks down.

  • Hard Worker - 1993 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    i traded my 1990 3500 service truck for this 1993 Dodge Dakota and it is one of the best trucks Ive driven. It handles great, but needs some work like a new fuil pump. Ive pulled over 25,000lbs with it and it worked it but it wont stop running. I love it
