The vehicle was towed to our facility; with a jump start, we were able to get the truck started and operating under its own power. It ran and drove around our lot at the time of intake.

Built on a body-on-frame platform, the Dakota features independent front suspension, rear leaf springs, and was commonly equipped with four-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS). When properly equipped, this configuration can offer towing capabilities of up to approximately 6,000–6,700 lbs, depending on axle ratio and setup. The exterior presents in fair condition with typical wear and tear consistent with age and use, including minor dents, dings, scratches, and cosmetic imperfections throughout. The interior shows similar wear consistent with a 20+ year-old pickup, with visible use on seating surfaces, trim panels, and high-contact areas; one door has been replaced. Mechanically, the vehicle ran and drove for us and is equipped with an aftermarket security system, adding an extra layer of theft deterrence.
