#25 of 43 limited slip by dakboy Apr 13, 2005 (9:02 am)
Hello, I just bought a 2001 Dakota and was looking at sticker on rear axle. It has "8.25 N-TRK" and "3.55 open case". Does this mean an 8.25" open diff with 3.55 gear ratio. What would it say if it was a Limited slip?   Thanks.

#27 of 43 Puget Sound Prices by durango5o8 Jun 12, 2005 (2:37 am)
Any Puget Sound area 2005 Dakota Quad Cab buyers out there?   I went to the local Dodge dealer yesterday, North of Seattle. I was looking at 2005 QC 4X4 Laramie, 4.7L with no real additional options. Went for test ride, enjoyed the truck, nice. The salesman had referred to a demo they had with 7300 miles for over $30K, and that was a couple thousand less than the $33K for the truck I had driven. I didn't think much of it, I had searched on the Internet quite a lot, and knew the sticker was $31290 for the truck I had driven. I thought he was thinking of another truck we walked by. When we start talking numbers, sure enough, there was a "dealer add on" sticker on the window for $2500. Anyone else in the Puget Sound region run into this?   Needless to say, we weren't able to come anywhere close on price and I didn't buy the truck. I was really surprised by this add on, I wasn't looking at something I thought was in really high demand. (The truck had to have been there for a while, since before Dodge raised the sticker price. If you price it out on Dodge's or Edmund's web site it comes to $31500 now.)   Of course, the sales manager gave me a song and dance about the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price, and they don't know what it costs to run a dealership.   I haven't looked at any other dealers in the area to see if they have similar add ons. I was just curious if anyone else had run into a similar situation?   Thanks for any help.   Paul Replies to this message: eharri3 (Jul 09, 2005 10:25 am)

Replying to: durango5o8 (Jun 12, 2005 2:37 am) Eh?? 31K for a Dakota? Did you explain to him people are bringing home decently equipped Crew Cab F150s, Rams, Titans, and Silverados for that price? Even a Laramie, I couldn't see myself paying more than mid 20s for this truck. My 04 Quad Sport Plus was 24167$, or about 28K OUT THE DOOR including all taxes, fees, and the finance charges for a 60 month loan at 4.9%.
#29 of 43 2005 Dakota SLT Club Cab Pricing by sixfitz Sep 06, 2005 (11:36 am)

#30 of 43 Dodge Bumpers by dfg Dec 13, 2005 (4:49 pm)
Hi all, I'm looking at putting an aftermarket bumper on a Dodge Dakota, problem is, it is originally specked out for a Dodge ram, My big question is the mounting hardware, holes etc... going to be the same (or very close) for both vehicles (dakota & ram) so that the parts are interchangeable?
#32 of 43 Wow Dakota buyers aren't the Internet Types by jfritsch Mar 28, 2007 (4:08 am)
It seems Dakota buyers aren't really into the internet as the last message is from sep 05.   I've seen numerous ads for Dakotas in the 26-32 range for 10k off MSRP. Looking at the bluebook wholesale used value for them 1year old thats about what you want off for a new one.   --jjf
#33 of 43 2001 Quad with high miles by johndias Aug 02, 2007 (4:53 pm)
I'm considering a 2001 Quad with the 4.7 and loaded with nice options (power windows/mirrors/locks, cruise, CD, has bed lined and with locking cover). It has clearly been well kept by the owner. Carfax shows 1 owner and no wrecks, and it KBBs at $9925. Dealer is asking me $6000 for it. Besides the very high mileage the drivers side passenger window is being held closed with a cardboard shim. Other than that the truck is in very fine shape from a visual inspection and the road test was great.   Should I be concerned about the high mileage?
