I got a '97 Dodge Dakota, and thought it was unnessarily big at the time, I also thought it was unnessarily mechanically complex too.

Fast forward to today, and it seems small, and simple to work on.

I was just thinking, if they made the exact same truck, I might buy another Dodge.

I guess they did their homework, and decided Americans want huge trucks?

Beside large trucks being generally popular, there’s also regulatory reasons that are pushing smaller and cheaper cars out of the market. Even if dodge wanted to make that exact Dakota again, there’s at least a handful of regulatory reasons they couldn’t.
