Is a GMC truck just a dressed up Chevy truck?

I've owned three Dakotas, my mom has owned two Dakotas, my brother in law has owned 2 Dakotas, and a close friend of the family has owned two Dakotas and a Durango.

Man, I miss the Dakota.

When and if it comes back, I hope it's not a weak representation.
No kidding. I had a 98 Dakota Sport with the 4 cylinder and a 5 speed. I really loved that truck. I drove it for many problem free years. A few years ago, Dodge said they were coming back out with the Dakota. Of course, even if they did, it would probably be 90 or 95% as big as a full-size Ram half ton with Dodge (or Ram or whatever) bragging about their new "compact" truck.
