Definently going to look into one of these come next June if insurance isn't reasonable on my top two choices.

Your burban gets better mileage and more then likely more reliable... Yes, it's a Dodge with a shity transmission with paint, and interior.

I like those and the Duango 5.9 R/T as well. Sound real nice with a Magnaflow or Flowmaster on it. Too bad the Dakota 5.9 R/T was only RWD. But the Durango 5.9 R/T came in AWD only.

They're nice trucks, my granddad had one in '99. His held up really well. Is it just my laptop or does this pic look pink to anyone else??

Yeah, the gas mileage is brutal with those trucks. I've read the fix for the tranny isn't that expensive though.

The Durango's are very odd looking trucks IMO, I have an aunt who owns one, not a fan of those. And I think I catch your drift with the Dakota R/T, that would be really cool if they were offered in AWD like the Dakota's were.

Yeah, they are mean sounding trucks, even stock, IMO those 5.9's are pretty throaty.

Yeah I bet it was cool, I really like them. And you know, the weird thing is, some people say theirs was awesome, it was fun, super reliable etc., then you get the few that say theirs gave them issues, guess it's a hit or miss situation with these trucks or something.

Everyone says that, but 90's chrysler always having paint coming off here. Transmissions that can't shift worth a damn... Meh...

You will find some good reviews but more bad then others...

The wife/gf deserve it.

The difference is that the famous people have the money to get out of the legal consequences.

That's pretty much the story if it has 4 wheels, a motor and a transmission....:yup:
