MazdaMatt....I traded in a 1995 or 1996 Dodge Dakota Sport Club Cab for my current s10 crew cab. The dakota was a pretty good little truck for my uses. The children finally outgrew the back seat, hence the trade.

I wasn't keeping good records of mileage at the time, but it seems like I would get about 18-21 mpg with regular non-ecomodding driving(hadn't found this site at that time). I was doing about 60 total miles a day in it, dropping kiddos off, then work commute. It was an automatic and seemed to have plenty of power for what I hauled and towed during those times. The 6' bed was nice to have.
