The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Summary:
|
The Dakota is 100 percent pickup
By Christopher Jensen, NewCarTestDrive.com
In the end, the Dakota isn't exactly state-of-the-art, but it has some saving graces. One is the airbag. Another is the optional ABS. The V8 engine option puts the Dakota in a class by itself among compact pickups. And its pricing makes it even more attractive.If you favor carlike behavior in a pickup, this may not be the truck for you. But if you like the idea of the Dakota's size and muscle both the V6 and V8 have plenty of punch the Dakota is definitely worth a look. |
|
Overview:
|
In an automotive world increasingly filled with trucks that have carlike characteristics, the Dodge Dakota pickup is a traditionalist. It suffers no confusion, no inner conflict about its role in life. It looks like a truck and it drives like a truck. So there. The Dakota is a midsize truck that roams the ground between compact pickups such as the Ford Ranger, Chevrolet S-Series and GMC Sonoma, and the big mothers such as the Ford F-150, Chevy/GMC C/K series and the big Dodge Ram. After years of buying its small pickups from Mitsubishi, Dodge created its own niche in 1986 with the home-grown Dakota. It turned out to be a popular size, and continues to be a pacesetter.
