My wife wanted a brand new Dakota 4x4 in '98. We bought it and then unfortunately had it into the dealer for 8 different issues in the nearly 3 years we owned it. The Dodge trucks of that era had very thin brittle paint. Our front bumper had rust forming all over the place from tiny stone chips in the black paint. The rear end which is visible from behind on the 4 x 4 was bare steel and rusted when brand new.
I have been driving Toyotas ever since after dumping that POS Dodge.... My first Toyota ('99 Tacoma 4x4) had no visible rust issues, but Toyota bought it back due to a Dana US built frame rust recall for 1.5 times KBB excellent Retail value. My next Toyota (2002 Tundra) also got a recall and they coated the frame with rust preventer. I now drive a 2011 Tundra Limited 4 x 4 and I absolutely love it. I will never own another Dodge.
