I had a 2002 Dakota with that engine. Drove it for eight years and put 170,000 miles on it before getting a new pickup. I had zero issues with the engine and it did a good job pulling my boat.

I bought my '01 Dakota Quad cab new and haven't had any issues. It has 72,00 miles on it.

I have about 46k miles on a 2010. So far so good.

The way I drive it I get 17-18 mpg with the 1/2 ton 4wd quad cab. A couple people have borrowed it and told me they were impressed by the 20mpg they got with it. Truck has the optional 3.92 with limited slip rear end.

Only slight gripe is that the electronic throttle can seem somewhat detached/non-responsive at times but you quickly learn how to make it go.
