Hey thanks for the info and quick responce...
I am amazed at that. I have not seen the truck it is an estate deal thing.
Do you know if the 2.5 had enough power to pull anything and could it get a decent mpg rating...
Thanks again
jimmy

it probably won't be a power house but should get good mpg, i've also read the same or similar 2.5 was used in jeeps so that would make for some aftermarket parts

Dont even bother with the 4 cyl. WAY to underpowered for the Dakota. You'll be passed by geo's.

My 2001 Sport (2.5 4-banger) is running a new intake and dynomax exhaust. It carries enough power to squeal the tires through first, but I wouldn't try pulling anything with it. Maybe a small aluminum boat, but that'd be about it. I'd think that you'd be risking you motor by imposing that amount of stress on it. It isn't THAT strong.

I have not seen the truck yet but I am told it is great condition and a good runner with no rust..
500 bucks drives home...
Just had my vehicle totald out by an uninsured motorist and of course mine is playing games so I thought 500 for a truck would be good...
about pulling maybe just a boat or something with a max weight of 800-1000 lbs with out trailor...or just for hauling parts and stuff.
At that price could always do an engine swap..lol
Thanks again !!
