The Ram's Little Son

Trim: 2004 Dodge Dakota SLT Quad Cab 4WD, Owned less than 1 year.

Pros:
Very comfortable to drive. I've only had my Dakota for 6 months but so far have not had a single problem, even on a 3,000 mile trip. Gas mileage on my V8 is 16.5 highway, 13.2 city. I've owned V8s in the pass and find this mileage about average.
The Dakota gets up to speed quickly with only a very slight hesitation if it has to downshift for more speed.
Braking is far superior to my last vehicle which was a Ford product.
I bought a model with the chrome package and am happy with the appearance. The 17" chrome wheels put me a little higher than most other vehicles giving me a good view of the road around me.
Cons:
The middle person in the front seat of the bench seat model has an uncomfortable ride because of lack of leg room and a hard back on the fold-up center console.
The truck has a slight sideways drift at high speed on a bad washboard road or railroad track on a curve. It corrects itself quickly without fishtailing too bad.
Has a small snaping noise in the frontend when turning hard while going up an incline.
Overall review:
This is my second Dodge truck and gets a thumbs from me. In my opinion if you want a full size truck buy a Ram, if you don't want full size then Dakota is your choice.
