Hi - just subscribed to the list -

Well, I don't have my Dakota yet. In fact I haven't even ordered it!
(Hopefully next week...) So I figure now is a good time to ask you
seasoned veterans to review my options list.

        Dakota Sport Club Cab (5-spd) w/
        3.55 Sure Grip
        Tire and handling package
        Trailer tow prep group
        Heavy use group
        Light group
        Tilt and cruise
        Fog lights
        Floor mats
        V8???

I had decided on going for the V8, but then I saw the gas mileage figures...
Being a poor college student, I don't know if I can justify the expense
of buying/owning the V8, especially since most of my driving is <5 miles
around town. Most of my towing will be restricted to small bass boats and
U-Haul trailers, so I don't really *need* the V8. Will I regret having the
V6?

Thanks! john
`91 Eagle Talon TSi AWD, soon to be traded for something with a *big* trunk.
