2002 Dodge Dakota Club Cab

Pros: V8, 4x4, Automatic, Awesome tow capacity, great clearance

Cons: come with bad shocks

The Bottom Line: Definitely the best truck for the money. Great features and with a 7 year warranty could not be any happier with my purchase.

Review: Best purchase I have ever made. I have been able to get up into the mountains and places I never could have made it with my VW FOX. I got the 16inch wheels and the sport package with the next gen. 4.7 V8. I am getting about 16mpg around town 22 or so...

Cons: cant fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood in between wheel wells.

Review: i like the styling of these trucks especially with fender flares and the dodge o.e.m running boards.lots of accessories are available at a reasonable price however the paint is too thin and scratches shine through with the " patriot blue " but the fit ...

Pros: lots of ground clearance, lots of power, good handling, nice interior, very dependable.

Cons: lack of head room, cruise control

Review: The 2002 Dodge Dakota is a really good truck. It is very comfortable. I never get a sore back driving for a long time. The 3.7L engine has lots of power. It likes to shoot you back into the seat when you floor it. The 4x4 is really good. It always ...

Pros: 4doors,lots of leg room for adults in back seat,nice handling on and off road.

Cons: cant fit a sheet of 4x8 sheet of plywood in between the wheel wells,

Review: i like the styling of these trucks especially with fender flares and the dodge o.e.m running boards.lots of accessories are available at a reasonable price however the paint is definately too thin and scratches shine through with the "patriot blue" but ...

Pros: It is a nice comfortable ride.

Cons: The is a lack of storage and a lack of head room.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this to anyone interested in a practical truck. It is not luxurious, but it gets my commuting done comfortably and reasonably effeciently.

Review: I found what I was looking for in a truck...

We just moved north to a cold, snowy climate and I needed to get rid of my little Chevy S-10 in order to obtain a 4 wheel drive vehicle. I commute about 30 miles per day, so I needed a 4-wheel...

Pros: V8Power Comfort Space Style Tow Capability Safety Aftermarket Parts

Cons: Braking Paint Quality Turn Radius Gas Mileage

The Bottom Line: Recommended w/options I ordered, light colored paint code. Only problems from factory, loose seat bolt, 2 paint scratches, and a an oil filter tightened by King Kong.

Review: I special ordered my Club Cab in September and have loved everything about it since I picked it up. The 4.7L sounds great and has loads of power, the low end torque is a real entertainer. I chose this truck because it is the only non-full size truck...

Pros: Power, comfort, handling, a smaller truck with a healthy v8 roomy interior interior ergonomics

Cons: No 3rd door

Review: The body style of the Dakota is very bold and very good looking. With the factory fender flares, the truck has an aggressive look but can still be driven out on the town. The new body style is not very attractive at all. I bought a used Dakota rather ...

Pros: Good looking fast truck with lots of extras.

Cons: The truck is to light to handle the massive engine under the hood.

The Bottom Line: Great if you live in a dry place.

Review: The 2002 Dodge Dakota 5.9L RT is great looking, handles good, has a great full size bed and the interior was well designed to fulfill the needs of the driver. Downside is that the 5.9L V8 will get roughly 17mph on the freeway and a lot less if your ...

Pros: Handles like a dream in dry conditions. Has a powerful engine even with V6.

Cons: Needs repairs every 3,000-5,000 miles. Count on it.

The Bottom Line: Avoid this vehicle. Too many engine light issues, broken hoses, heating and AC system fails, safety hazzards with wipers and tires.

Review: I wonder if I have enough space for my laundry list of complaints? Let's see: The front left tire snapped off when I was driving and the truck had 12k miles on it. I was lucky I was only going about 30mph at the time. The check engine light comes on ...

Pros: I can get rid of it in January.

Cons: Horrible mileage for V6, frequent problems requiring service, poor wet road traction

The Bottom Line: I wouldn't recommend this truck to anyone. I'm just hoping I can get rid of it before it falls out of warranty. Biggest mistake I ever bought.

Review: In January 2004, we were in the market for another vehicle. Our trusty 95 Maxima was well into the 300k mile range and had finally started showing it's age in the way of worn out CV joints and a whine coming from the engine compartment. Some ...
