Owner: JETZcorp
The Dakota: 1999 Dodge Dakota R/T
Displacement: 5.9 L
Fuel type: gasoline
Transmission: automatic
Curb weight: 3900 lbs
Coefficient of drag: 0.49
Frontal area: 0 sq.ft.
Instrumentation: Torque app
Description: Almost stock. The Dakota has a cold air intake simply because I found one for $20 and it sounds cool. The tires are stock width but lower profile (no one makes a 255/55R17 anymore) and a more aggressive summer compound. That means something for rolling resistance (?) and my odometer reads low.
Build Thread:
Current Mods: The Dakota is not made for economy. Therefore, it has none.

Planned Mods: During the course of upgrading the Dakota's performance, it may incidentally pick up some economy. Freer-flowing exhaust, higher compression, and freshened-up componentry may contribute to future fuel economy gains. But, if adding an extra 100hp brings it down to 10mpg, it's not really a big loss. That's what the Honda is for.
