Try getting rubber floors and cloth in a truck with a few options now without having to special order it :td:
Yeah this shit pisses me off. All you fuckers that buy shit on credit or lease your fucking vehicles so you can do battle with the Jones' are ruining my ability to buy a vehicle of necessity rather than of snobbery.

You'll never see me buy another Dodge. Not after the crap I had with my Dakota. A friend of mine, who used to do 3rd party warranty inspections warned me to watch for two things just out of warranty; aircon core and transmission issues. He missed the windscreen that started to delaminate, just a month after I got it ("We've never seen THAT before!"), and the manifold leak. Got to the point where I was laying out over $1000.00 every second service, for something.

Of course now my mother has it, and it's running perfectly.

The A/C core is apparently still an issue. I have to have a new one installed in my '06 Ram.

My mechanic and my research have confirmed that "It's not IF bit WHEN. "

I had 2 dakota's.

I lost the AC on one after a 2000 miles trip in mid august.

No issues ever w/ my 03 Ram, been a great truck.

The whole thing put me off buying North American vehicles and I ended up buying a Mazda product, after dumping the Dakota. I've been looking around for what I might get next and the best candidate I've seen so far, is one that I'll likely never buy because of that; the Ford Transit Connect. If it was a foot longer in the back and was made by Toyota, Honda, of Mazda, I would certainly buy one.

Good thing Ford doesnt have any Stake in Mazda...:lol

They were More involved a few years ago and have since sold off some of there share of the company.

But I'm sure theres still some Ford design in current mazda vehicles.
