CoalFreak, 11/12/2009

1992 Dodge Dakota LE 2dr Extended Cab SB (2.5L 4cyl naturally aspired 5M)

I bought this truck 10 years ago, with 91,000 miles on it for my first vehicle. Since then, I have overheated it, run it out of oil, totaled another car with it, (stupid teenager stuff, you know?) driven it an additional 85,000 miles, ended up with it sitting for 4 years, and it still starts up the first time, every time. Incredible engine, I have never had any trouble with the engine …

Solid Truck

1992 Dodge Dakota LE 2dr Regular Cab SB (2.5L 4cyl naturally aspired 5M)

If you're looking for a great truck, find one of these! Mine has well over 300,000 miles and is as solid and reliable as most new trucks. The only cons I can think of is not much to the interior for room and with my standard cab. Hauls and tows like a full-size. Dodge made sure they had a great truck before they put their name on it!

Good overall truck

1992 Dodge Dakota LE 2dr Extended Cab SB (2.5L 4cyl naturally aspired 5M)

The 1992 Dakota is a very good overall truck. Power is decent for the era with the V6. Running the AC while driving in hot weather tends to cause it to need to downshift often to accelerate at certain speeds. I recommend the V8 for the club cab, especially with the 4x4 option. The exterior and interior design still looks good to this day. With a new paint job, removed plastic …

Good Truck

1992 Dodge Dakota LE 2dr Extended Cab 4WD SB (3.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 5M)

Good overall truck. My truck has 410 000 km's 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.
