I used to have a '92 Dodge Dakota that got 37-38mpg during the warmer part of the year.
That is never going over 55mph, with admittingly light loads, but with a cab flush canopy, or truck cap; whatever its called in your neck of the woods.
Make sure its the 2.5 4 cyl. w 5spd. The V-6's most common in the early to mid '90's were not as reliable,
This truck is not too small; not too big! No new vehicle depreciation, prices should be very reasonable!
I used it as a courier vehicle on the job about 300miles a day/5 days a week for about 4 years. I put 394,000 miles on it with only tires and shock replacements. Finally, after out of work service, I had to replace the radiator after 5 years.
Very, very reliable!!!
Trailers are good and cheap too! You don't have to pay INSURANCE on one!!!!!!!!!!!!!
