Some think a small truck means less storage but this truck has more than enough.
Good and comfortable truck. Not too big but not cramped. Drives smoothly and gives a good sense of safety. Very nice to have a 4 door mid size truck. The 4x4 has a high and low setting and works on most adventures I have taken it on. To fill up my tank (2.20 a gallon in my town) it takes about 40 dollars to fill which is better than some of the cars I have had in my life. All around good and reliable truck.

Its comfy and rides really smooth for the make.
I like the color, its q grey color with a shiny finish. The car is perfect height for riding in, not too low and not too short. It rides very smooth on the highway and can fit multiple people in it without being crammed. Perfect for driving long car rides and very comfortable for me.

My Dakota truck and hunting buddy.
It is gray in color. It gets goods gas mileage. It has extended cab so four people can ride in it. It is very dependable and has four wheel drive shaft so I can take it off road and drive it in snow.. It has adjustable seating with and fold down middle thing. Has air-conditioning and has excellent tires.
