Let's talk about trucks

I just found a nice looking 05 Dakota in Chicago. Damn thing has a 4.7. They are either good or toast.
Agree. I had a 4.7 01 Dak (almost 290k when sold) that lived a hard life of clutch dump burnouts and me using it as a construction truck. That was a Good one! I have a 07, 3.7 now with a cracked head and a leaking rear main. We've been driving it all over Florida working in it daily for almost a year.... a good one? I dunno, but it's Damn Tough! My old 02 Ram 5.9 with almost 300k was a 4 door beast with a factory tow package, and 6 way heated leather seats with king and queen a/c. Advance Auto Hub bearing killed it. Should have left the slightly loose factory one on there.... my 00.Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo had OVER 300 k on it when it got cut off and totalled last Christmas.
