  • Good Truck - 1992 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    Good overall truck. My truck has 410 000 kms on the original engine, and still runs very strong. 318 5.2L V8 is a very reliable and quick engine (lots of power for this smaller class truck.) This truck does not owe me anything. I would encourage anyone to buy this truck if they found a good looking used one.

    Im in love with my 92 Dakota. There is nothing I would rather drive. I also have a 97 Dakota but I like my V-8 much better. I think they are well built pieces of machinery.

    Brought this truck in 2002 with 153000 on it. Reliable, great pickup on the highway and excellent condition, looks and runs new.

    I bought this truck when it had 216,000 miles on it. I only paid $850. I figured i would put a motor in it in a few months but it ran great for two years and then I ended up selling it for $1200.(I did put rims and a paint job on it)This truck was great. I want it back!!If you have on keep it!!!

  • One Tough Truck - 1992 Dodge Dakota

    I bought this baby with 22K on the odometer. Ive used and abused this truck until just recently. Hauled kids and their stuff to college from Virgina to Maine. Its just 2WD but Ive taken it to some awful spots with my dog to do some great bird hunting. The extended cab is only good for a dog and gear, but who cares. Im trading it in for another Dakota. With 132,000 on the odometer and no major repairs, this baby owes me nothing. If you can get your hands on another like this treasure it.

    If you are looking for a reliable, then you have found one. I put mine through Hell , and it stood strong. The only bad thing about it was that I am 6 foot 2, and it is a bit small on the inside. If you are into quality sound, then the dakota is for you. It is incredible for pure sound because of how small it is.

  • Best small pickup on the market - 1992 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    I have owned 2 1992 Dodge Dakotas both sports and both short box. Regret loosing both of them. First one was a V-6 that I lost to a roll over accedent and the second was a V-8 that I traded in (Stupid!!!!) The V-6 was decent on gas and the V-8 what can I say. You dont buy a V-8 with worrys about MPG

  • perfect truck - 1992 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    I bought my truck for the simple fact that it has a V8 in a little truck, I wanted a little hotrod and I got one. This truck runs great looks perfect and has never let me down! The only bad thing is it has a small gas tank so in town driving must be kept to a minimum!

  • Reliability - 1992 Dodge Dakota
    By -

    Ive had my Dakota for 2 1/2 years. It starts on the first turn of the key every time even in Minnesotas cold winters. Yesterday for the first time, it didnt start. Thats because I left my lights on while I was at work all day. I got it jumped and everything was fine.
