Bought a '99 with 100K this fall when the '92 Dak died. So far we love it, the MPG is a little rough with the 318. We get around 13 but the most of that is around town, when we get out on the highway we can get 17 at 65 and drops to 16.5 at 75. The ride is great and has power up the wa-zoo {the dak was v6 and couldn't get out of it's own way}. I can't imagine a 360 in one of these, the 318 brakes the tires loose plenty well. The front brakes were shot when we got it and we got a set of drilled and sloted rotors and ceramic pads and it will now stop on a dime and give nine cents change. I would buy another but, we have had it less than 6 months. The paint fell off the dak in around 9 months, and that seriously dampened my enthusatim toward Dodge because all I got was "we will help you out" from the dealer and D/C {sound familar Gordon}, we almost bought a Tahoe.
