Subject: DML: New 'Poster' and Truck
Hello,
I just got a 93 v-6 Dakota for a very good price ($1.). It is my
first
Chrysler product. (First post here too.) I have read time and again
about the Chrysler mini-van transmissions, a friend replaced 7 of them
under warranty. I now wonder if I too, am destined to have transmission
problems, if I keep my Dakota. I can not detect any problems with the
truck save for needing new shocks at 78K. And it was painted by the
dealer under warranty about 2-3 years ago. It's a nice looking very
clean vehicle. My guess is many here would know about how well the
tranny stands up. Which tranny unit mine has, I don't know yet.
Any opinion on the tranny is welcome. Whether a trip to the shop for
preventive maintenance is a good idea or just my usual change of fluids
when I get a new vehicle. I am speculating on whether towing a
small horse trailer(under 4 thousand lbs total) 4-5 times a year, an
hour or two in distance, is a good idea or just plain dumb, with this
truck.
