What Owners are Saying About the 2011 Ram Dakota Extended Cab
"Good and dependable"
"Good work truck"
"Not quite what I expected"
"I've only had the truck since November, so take this with a grain of salt. The truck is a bit over priced for the quality from what I see now that I own it. The interior is made with cheap plastic and looks very cheap. The outside is not bad though, looks wise that is. You can hear things rattle though as you drive down on the inside. The seats are comfortable, but the stereo is a bit far away and the cup holder is right under the shifter, so if you're not careful you'll spill your drink easily. The truck has almost no weight in the back and slides around far too much when it's wet or slippery, so you have to drive more cautiously than any other truck I've ever driven. I have the 6 cylinder, which is a big mistake. It's has the power I need, but the gas mpg is awful! I'm very worried about this truck giving me issues down the road, but thankfully Dodge has a 100K power train warranty. The truck has already cut off on me while backing up, so I'm very concerned about issues, considering I am only at 10K miles. Overall, I would probably not recommend this truck and I would instead spend the same amount of money on a better quality Chevy or Ford."
"2011 DODGE RAM DAKOTA CREW CAB-4 DO BIG HORN 4 X 4"
"THIS DODGE DAKOTA QUAD CAB IS THE PERFECT SIZE, I OWNED A 2002 DODGE DAKOTA SLT PLUS CREW CAB 2-WHEEL-DRIVE WITH THE 3.9 V-6 FOR 10 YEARS AND LOVED IT. AT 150,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER I TRADED IT FOR THE 2011 RAM DAKOTA. I WISH DODGE STILL MANUFACTURED THE RAM DAKOTA. THE DAKOTA HAS A LOT MORE INTERIOR ROOM THAN THE GMC CANYON AND CHEVROLET COLORADO, AND THE DAKOTA HAS A LONGER BED. GREAT TO DRIVE."
