Hmmmm....I beat the snot outta my truck, drive like a bat-outta-hell
(offroad), and push the engine, sometimes, to its limits...and she still
keeps on taking it without any complaints.

Gotta love your Dodge! :)

    This is something that also can get to me. This is like this one page
that I
read.. I am sure that some of you have seen this web page called my dakota
is a
lemon. I go through and I read what the guy is complaining about and it
makes me
laugh. He says that he can hardly turn a wheel and that he has tried it
constantly
(with a v6) trys to peel out in the rain, stalls it up, drives it like a bat
out of
hell on the highway and wonders why his truck has problems such as a bad
rear end,
poor gas mileage, trans problems, etc. If you drive the car like that of
course it
will have problems. Then you have people that look for something wrong with
a
vehicle regardless. Like this one guy I know has a civic and got in an
accident. He
has to drive a rental car, a neon, and complains that it doesnt handle worth
crap,
bad gas mileage, bumpy ride, etc. I have riden with him in his civic and in
this
neon and his driving habits have changed. I used to not have to grab the oh
shit bar
on the civic, but now he has turned into a street racer taking turns faster
than I
would take in a corvette and wonders why it doesnt perform like he drove the
civic.
Just makes me wonder how you go through 3 daks in 4 years.. Dont even bother
looking
at something "different" if you still think that your dad is the strongest
and
smartest man in the world.
