Just got me a Dakota truck

Picked this up last week. Runs sweet and makes an excellent surf truck

Nice truck Miles👍Were you on the A303/A30 today? A green one with lights on the roof passed me going the other way.

That was me for sure, orange lights on the roof. Quite sedate as it’s a 3.7 5 Speed manual. Driving back from Taunton it did 22mpg or more. Bought it for practically rather than speed. Drives real nice and is virtually rust free.
Needs lowering a few inches to match the wheels and I’d like a better cam for it, but no one makes any performance parts for these little V6 motors any more. Guess I’ll go slow and enjoy the view!

Did well this weekend Ali, boards and kit in the bed, room to get changed in the quad cab with seats folded up. Pretty chuffed with it so far.
