Dodge hailed the Dakota pickup as "Bigger, bolder, and tougher" when it was redesigned in 2005. The mid-sized Dakota's aggressive styling and stance confirms this claim and is carried into the 2007 model year.
The 2007 Dodge Dakota is offered as a Club or Quad cab in three different trim levels and three engine options. A 3.7 liter V6 with 210 horsepower comes standard, and a 4.7 liter V8 with 235 horsepower or high output version with 260 horsepower are available. Transmissions are a 4- or 5-speed automatic, or a 6-speed manual, which are available on both rear and all-wheel drive models.
Standard features on the 2007 Dodge Dakota include auxiliary audio input, air conditioning, front airbags, and rear antilock brakes. Four-wheel ABS, head curtain airbags, and heated seats and mirrors are optional.
Mileage for the 3.7 liter is 16 city and 22 highway miles per gallon, while the 4.7 liter V8 gets 15 city and 20 highway miles.
Pricing for a 2007 Dodge Dakota starts at $19,370 and can get up to $30,000 when fully loaded.
The 2007 Dodge Dakota is everything Dodge claims it to be and more. Versatile, hard-working and rugged - yet ready for a country drive on a sunny afternoon.
