I reckon my experience with Dakotas has been WAY different than yours! I own 2 of them, a '93 and a '97- both of them had over 100k ahen I got them, both of them are SLT Club Cabs, both are 4x4s, both have the 318 w/ 4 speed automatics and have been trouble-free.

Both of them have 3:55 axle ratios but would be better if they were 3:92 or 4:11, as would most of today's crop of 'full-size' pickups (I don't buy a TRUCK for mileage and anyway, the autos today all have at least one overdriven gear).

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
