The Dak, in my eyes , is much more truck for the price than the Toyota...on
the other hand, the Toyoyas hold their value much better in the long ro\un,
years on down the road......My 92 Dak V8 wouldn't get nearly as close to
the original sale price as a Toyota could, even though its in pristine
shape.........
On the third hand (!?!), if ANYONE wanted to pay for half of a new vehicle
for me when I was a new driver, I would've jumped at it! I drove an 81
Plymouth Horizon for my first car, and even then I didin't own that until I
was 17.....................
