Tired of my sons truck
My son has a 1997 dodge dakota. This thing is trying to give me an mental episode. Everything on it is rusted Have replaced the shakles, most of the steering components, did a tune up and had a screw break off in the distributor when I went to replace the cap and rotor button. Then someone cut off his converter. Truck still has trouble starting when it rains or we have a heavy dew. Found two vacumn leaks and fixed those. Start his truck and it starts having a upper end chatter, and starts blowing smoke from the tailpipe. Pull the dipstick to check the oil and yep, milky oil. Not a good outlook and I know hes not gonna have the funds to have someone else fix it. have I told you how much I hate his truck.

My mom has a 04 dakota. She bought it from her sister's estate after she passed away. A POS in my opinion. Can't haul anything, bad on fuel and slides in the rain when you try to stop at a red light. Dad bought an 08 3/4 dodge but the only reason was that it had a cummins in it.

My dad had an 86 and loved it so much he bought an 06. Personally all the jerks around here that put the megaphone pipes on their 6 cylinder Cummins (hoping to sound like a real engine) are enough to convince me to not buy a Dodge truck.
