2005 Dodge Dakota Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by *****ptschett
A member in North Dakota, United States
Powertrain performance
Dakota had V8 options up to 260 HP for this year, available 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic.
Cargo capacity
Dakota has a larger box and up to 7,000 lbs trailer tow capacity
Handling
While a large heavy vehicle, it still handles predictably and can take curves and cloverleaf ramps quickly enough to surprise car drivers
Rear seat room & comfort
Front seats of these two are about equal, but Dakota has more rear seat room and better rear-cab-area capacity for cargo
