Its been real...

I had a Dodge Dakota 5.8

I loved that truck. Until the trans blew. Lucky for me it still under warranty, granted the last day of the warranty. I vowed then and there never again to get another Dodge.

 

Well, you learned something; the hard way but you learned something

 

Did you mean to say 4.8?

 

I've had two Dakotas and three Rams. This is my first Toyota, I'm never going back to Dodge....

 

No it was a 5.8 Liter V8!!!!! And would donuts anytime I wanted it to.

 

There's def. no 5.8 Dakota. However, this is my first time in all my years of forum-ing that I've seen an update come back after this long.

 

Some had a 318 ci, or 5.2 liter. Those were awesome, donuts all day like nothing!

 

it was a 5.8 liter V8 Bigger then a 5.0 Mustang at least that is what the Badge said on the fenders. You should have seen the looks on the dudes faces when they got beat by a pickup

 

It was a ford dakota?

 

no a Dodge Dakota. Ford only makes POS"S

 

K then it wasn't a 5.8

 

Okay Then Dodge lied to me

2nd gen Dakota RT's had the infamous Mopar 5.9 Liter V8, but they ran out of engines so they had only a limited production. The 1998 ZJ's had a little over 10,000 5.9 liter Grand Cherokees that were also pretty darn fast.

 

Right, not a 5.8

 

Correct I was just trying to help get the facts straight

 

Thank you

 

Thanks. Long way away from my decision but I'm guessing a tundra it will be. They are so soils feeling when driving. Love them

 

Good luck!

 

Another from the dead update.

I still miss my Tacoma. It was a sweet truck.
I ended up last year getting a Tundra Rock Warrior. Love the truck so far.

 

and what happened to the Cummins?
