Dodge Dakota
Falling into the mid-size truck category, the Dodge Dakota is available in extended or double cab configurations. Having been through a facelift two years ago, the Dakota is equipped with a 302 horsepower 4.7-litre V8 engine that offers better towing capabilities and is compatible with E85 fuel. Naturally, the 3.7-litre V6 is still available, producing a little less power at 210 horsepower. It is not only a versatile truck, but it is very comfortable.
