This has been a great vehicle for me. It has been reliable and gets me through the winter snow every year. I've eclipsed the 150,000 mile mark and still going strong.

Will run smooth at the start but when it gets older will start to ride rough.
Like that it has lasted this long from when I got it. Been able to handle anything I needed. Had to rebuild the transmission and had some other issues with the ac.

Lemon Dakota: repairs begin at 50,000 miles.
It has 65,000 and I've already replaced upper and lower ball joints on both sides, transmission, and brakes every year. I don't drive on bad roads or highways. I don't drive it hard either. It's not used for hauling or towing. I think this truck is just a lemon. I have too much money in it to let it go now.

I'd buy another
I have a 2005 Dakota I bought new. 116k miles on it, not many but I also have a work van I drive daily. In that time its only been in the shop for 2 recalls, one for air bags and other for heated seats. I got rid of the stock exhaust and added a cat back Gibson exhaust, I added airbags for towing and I added a bigger transmission cooler. All lubricants have been swapped to synthetic. So far best vehicle I have ever owned. I have done simple things like battery and lights but thats it

A pickup truck with the ability to carry weight despite it is compact frame.
Door jamming for the rear cab on the driver's side. The mileage has shown an error message for years now and no one can seem to figure out why. After having it for about eight years, the front tire rod snapped. The breaks are not the greatest but there is not too much wear and tear over time.

Love the interior trim and short bed.
Had to put new suspension system in after driving on a dirt road until this year. Currently have about 180,000 miles on it. Replaced serpentine belt, ac compressor. Has been very dependable over the last 14 years. Purchased new. Interior looks great still.

Mid size; extended cab. Tough; great torque, . V6 4 speed transmission.
Dakota mid-size truck with extended cub. It is a very tough truck, reliable, a good candidate for daily commute. It has comfortable seating, simple controls, great speakers. This truck has a four speed transmission, good storage. Very impressive performance. The torque is great, it has a large bed (6 ft). It also does great in towing. Overall, this truck has just about everything a regular truck has.

Never buy a used vehicle with anything over 100,000 miles and expect it to run forever

There is not any but just it gets us back and forth to work everyday.
The problem with the vehicle that has a bad shift solenoids and has a loud muffler. The truck has been getting my boyfriend back and forth to work but I have stop and turn the truck off to reset the shift solenoid. It is very rusty. It does have a misfire on one cylinder. The performance is not that bad. I have 3 good tires that come with the truck. But the truck would be better as a parts truck. It has a new master cylinder and brake booster that we have fixed but a used power steering pump and had to put on a new puppy to the tensioner. The 4 wheel drive do not work.

Good solid reliable, versatile, & economical transportation
This is the only vehicle I ever bought on my own, chosen to serve my needs. It has been the most versatile, reliable, safest and relatively economical truck I have driven. Although it is ten years old, it has not required much more than routine maintenance, and still gets 16 mpg. The inside of the cabin and the bed are in great shape, and the outside, while it has a few dings, has never had any major damage, and still looks in good condition. The only current problem is the air conditioner, which can be fixed with one visit to the mechanic.

Cruise with comfort and control.
I absolutely love my Dodge Dakota pickup. The seats are heated and very comfortable comes in handy on long trips or a cold winter morning. Recently drove it across country. It handles very well on the highway mine is 6 speed standard with cruise control. Very easy to drive with controls on the steering wheel. First time I have had both cruise control and a stick shift wouldn't want it any other way again best of both worlds. Full size bed and tow capacity make this the perfect vehicle for me. Never have to drive by that garage sale or antique shop without stopping again.

I stand by the Dodge products
I've had three Dodge trucks over 20 years and once they reach a certain mileage I've notice the gas gauge have stopped working. My Nitro has yet to do this. Of all my Dodge vehicles, my 1996 Dakota was the best. I was able to put 276,507 miles on it without any major issues or engine failures. The cab rusted off the frame mounts and making my 'drive' finally being down in the 2nd position as the cab was settling down further on the frame it was pulling on the shift linkage.

DO NOT BUY A DODGE DAKOTA, it WILL be the WORST truck you EVER BUY
I purchased the truck about 14 months ago. I paid $4500 for it, in the year since, I have had to invest around a thousand dollars a month into the truck, now it will not pass nys emissions inspection, and i am having a hard time selling the truck even with 119,x*x original miles and a brand new transmission with less than 10k miles on it

2005 Dakota not what some crack it up to be
I bought my 2005 Dakota SLT 4.7V8 with 43,000 miles. My first issues were at 50k and an odd vibration in the front end which sent me down a spiral. No matter who does the brakes, new parts and all, there is always the feel of pulsation like a warped rotor or the like. Every 20k is a new set of exhaust manifold gaskets. My maintenance is very regular at recommended (or more often if circumstances dicate) intervals. At 190k the transmission went. Recently at over 200k the PCM failed. I am not counting little maintenance items, ball joints, tune ups and the like in detail. Fuel mileage on this truck has been a theory. Overall, it does a good job at light towing and such, and I think it is a good looking vehicle. Finally at a financial position I can start looking for a different vehicle. First and last Dodge/Ram I will own. Compared to Fords and Toyotas they are a nightmare.

2005 Dakota SRT. Reliable, good looking truck. Just keep up maintenance.
The car is very reliable as far as towing capabilities, bed length and space within the cabin. I was driving it back and forth between school and home, approximately an hour and a half drive, for over a year before any real issues arose. Those issues being mainly shocks going back quickly mostly due to bad highway conditions. Also front brake pads need to be replaced relatively often for some reason.

My 2005 dodge Dakota has plenty of room for my family and can haul what I need.
Front suspension repairs are pretty constant, but expected. Ball joints, bushings, etc. Otherwise it has been a decent reliable truck. My dakota has the 4.6l v8, has enough power for my needs, but fuel economy leaves a bit to be desired. Newer trucks are better on fuel. I average around 16 mpg mixed driving, but have reached 20 mpg on road trips with mostly highway driving.

Its white and has four doors. It is also a 4x4 with a 4 foot bed. It has a bed cover over it that retracts if you have to haul things. The truck is not full size but it's a nice size if you need to do some hauling. It gets good gas mileage. It fits 5 people comfortably, but the back seats fold down if you need them to so you call haul things there too. There is also storage areas under the back seats,

Reviewing the 2005 Dodge Dakota Truck
It's great in the snow and when dealing with poor road conditions, however, maintenance wise, it's quite needy. I feel like something on this truck always has to be fixed. Also, I do like that it's a four door truck vs a two door. It's nice to have a vehicle that runs like a truck while still being suitable and convenient for a family with its four doors instead of two. It is a v8 so it's a little hard on gasoline, but overall it's a great vehicle.

The motor and transmission have had no problems.

My 2005 Dodge Dakota and how much I like it.
I bought my truck new in 2005 and never had any problems with it. It is dependable and comfortable. Easy to drive. There are more additions that are available now I wish I had, but that's ok. I just had work done on it when my engine light came on. The part was replaced but I have to take it to the dealer to get the light reset not looking forward to that but it is the first problem I have had with my truck and it is 13 years old and that is pretty good.

My 2005 Dodge Dakota good for another 100, 000 miles.
150, 000 miles done nothing to the truck, but change the oil every 6, 000 miles and replace the tires twice. I get about 20 miles to a gallon if I stay under the speed limit. The only problem I have had was with the seat belt computer alarm not working properly.

That it just the best truck ever. It is more comfortable than our car and holds as many people. It will carry all my needs and more.
I love my truck. It is a quad cab so everyone can fit in it, the seats are way more comfortable then the new trucks, and it really isn't that bad on gas. It is just everything I wanted for a truck and more.

Leather heated seats I love the so much.
This has been a great truck. I have not had many issues. Normally the usual things that happen. I recommend Dodge to anybody who likes dependability. Great engine. Looks great. Easy on gas. I bought the car used but it was new to me. I enjoyed the inside of the truck. Lots of room to grow.
