Plainjane Dodge Dakota (and Ford's Euro-Ranger)

 


From Reid Cunningham: " I was hurrying through a lot in Manchester NH when I spotted this Dakota. I'm not used to seeing 30ish-year-old vehicles in Salt Season up here. I had a similar 1993 Dakota with the longer bed. The Dakota was a midsized truck, at the time. The main benefit versus the mini pickups was that a third person could reasonably be squeezed into the middle postion of the bench seat. Ford has brought the Ranger back to the US; it looks about the size of the Dakota. No regular cab version will be available in the US (available in Europe though–see photos below) and I doubt the manual transmission will be an option either. Sigh."
