Transmissions: 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic ItвЂ™s a nice combination, which may be why there are so many Dakotas prowling the streets.Д®ngine: 3.9-liter OHV V-6 or 5.2-liter OHV V8 Go for the short bed, and you have a pick-up thatвЂ™s fairly maneuverable, yet brawny enough to get the job done. ItвЂ™s certainly the engine to have in this truck, giving up only 20 horsepower and 45 pound-feet of torque over the R/T. Certainly, this 5.2-liter V8 is a well-known motor, along with gobs of power. Plenty of style, along with more room than competitors in its class. Otherwise, the cabin was nicely assembled, certainly bett er than some GM trucks.Д«ut as far as compact pick-ups go, this one has the usual benefits that all Chrysler (now DaimlerChrylser) products have.

This in a truck with keyless entry, power windows and locks - at least install a manual adjustment inside the cabin.

The rear window doesnвЂ™t slide open, so why not put a rear defroster in? Secondly, the only way to adjust the mirrors was to push them manually. (WillChrysler ever get rid of their truely cheap ignition slot?)ДЄs long as weвЂ™re mentioning annoyances, IвЂ™ll mention two. The rest of the dash seemed straight from the Chrysler parts bin, so interior pieces will seem familiar to those who have K-cars and their descendents. Vehicles at twice the price usually skimp in this area.

The instrument panel had a full set of gauges including readouts for voltage and oil pressure, unusual for any vehicle in this era of cost-cutting. The dash is straightforward and functional, if less stylish than its exterior. The center console was convenient with plenty of storage and cupholders. The front cloth bucket seats felt comfortable and supportive. ItвЂ™s best used for storage or small children. A quick trip is all that can be expected of the large flat bench that Dodge calls a seat. That makes the rear a challenge for anyone trying to reach it. The crew cab model proved roomy enough, although Dodge still doesnвЂ™t have rear doors on its crew cab, at least not yet. It proved its worth through the treacherous ice storms of early January. The four-wheel-drive system used on the Dakota is for use only for slippery or off-road conditions. A firm foot was need to activate the power front-disc/rear-drum brakes. This is especially true considering the interior was quiet - quieter than most of DodgeвЂ™s cars.Д«raking was okay, but nothing special. The rear end stayed fairly well planted, despite its empty bed. The ride was good, with decent bump absorption, although thereвЂ™s enough rocking to remind you that this is no car. The result is the truck feels more responsive, with some road feel making it through to the driver. Power steering is improved this year on four-wheel drive models, with rack-and-pinion steering replacing the old recirculating ball steering. Towing capacity for the V8 is 5,400 pounds and 6,700 with the 3.92 axle ratio. ItвЂ™s fed through a four-speed automatic transmission, or a five-speed manual is available with all engines except the 5.9-liter V8. Like any old OHV V8, the noise is familiar upon acceleration, and for a truck that competes against other compact pickups, the V8 is a great option - one offered only by Dodge. There was good oomph as well as a decent 2,000 pound payload capacity.

The 5.2-liter had quite enough juice to squirt its 3,705 pounds through traffic easily. Available only on the R/T model, it feeds its power exclusively through the rear wheels. Top of the heap is the 5.9-liter 250 horsepower V-8. Known in another lifetime as the 318, this mill churns out a respectable 230 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. The text vehicle, a short-bed crew cab came with DaimlerChryslerвЂ™s tried-but-true 5.2 liter V8. Next comes the 175 horsepower 3.9-liter V-6. Starting with a 120-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder which can only be anemic in a vehicle that weighs in at 3,557 pounds. Next comes regular or club cab, short bed (6.5 feet) or long bed (8 feet). ThereвЂ™s rear-wheel drive or a part-time four-wheel-drive system.

Trim levels include Base, Sport, Plus, SLT, SLT Plus and R/T. The Dakota has the usual assortment of truck options. First it was the Ram, with its Peterbilt-like front-end then came a revised Dakota, playing on the same look that made the Ram such a hit.Дiscarding the old slab-sided look helped Dakota sales pick up, and several additions made for 1998 continue for 1999.
