Dodge Dakota weight
Dodge Dakota curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier Dakota may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.
On the other hand, a lighter Dodge Dakota may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.
The lightest Dodge Dakota was produced in 2001 with a weight of 3378 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2008 with 4859 lbs pounds in curb weight.
