I don't know the reason why your speedometer/odometer isn't working (probably slipping) , but I'd be happy that you are keeping a low milage Dakota...

Well, the ethical thing is to get it fixed... but I know it would be pretty far down on my list of things to fix.

my 92 did the same thing, dont worry the noise stops itself, but then the speedo doesn't work either.

It needs greasing. Pull the speedometer cable and put powdered graphite on the cable and put in back in it's sheath and see if that stops it. If it doesn't, it's your speedometer head which needs rebuilding or replacing.
