Thread: New guy from Sarasota area, 01 Dakota Sport v8/5spd

  1. #1

    Default New guy from Sarasota area, 01 Dakota Sport v8/5spd

    Hoping my first post doesn't get me tossed

    It's not an RT even though it says it on the side...

    looked at quite a few forums and decided you guys seem to be the most knowledgeable and least likely to start flame wars lol

    So I just bought this 01 Dakota Sport v8/5spd extended cab, gonna be the extra vehicle that happens to sound nice with a magaflow exhaust and it's in very nice shape except it suffers from florida sun... roof and hood clear are peeling... not too concerned at the moment since it's just a cosmetic thing...

    Will post pics when I can...

    Looking forward to participating if you will allow this non RT guy to play

    Must admit the truck is fun, my hooligan side appeared for a few seconds on the way home from picking it up, from a rolling stop it smoked the tires in 1st and 2nd and chirped 3rd... such a juvenile thing but it did make me smile

    Welcome aboard! I drive my 4.7 5 spd truck like I stole it every day, I still don't know how the stock clutch with 258,000 Kms is still taking the abuse
