Farm! need to do alot of our own spraying for fields, and the higher off the ground i am the longer we can wait to spray without damaging the crops! plus the bigger it is the easier it is to tow wagons, and huge trailers! all sorts of fun stuff! lets just say when its time to trade that baby in, it will have quite a few miles on it and they will be very very hard miles

Ya, but really you will need to change just about all the fluids every year if you run it off road all the time! i just saw my power steering fluid, when i got it flushed and replaced!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE, it was dark asa mudd!!!!!! and i just got it flushed a year and a half ago!!!!

RE: How many of you drive
Yah i just did a complete tune up on my unlces truck
the guy has never changed the fluids in the 10 years he has had it. The trany fluid was black, oil was horrible, rad fluid was brown, diff fluid, well i gagged when i popped the cover off[:'(] Some people shouldnt own vehicles, especially trucks.
But yah if your doin lots of hauling with trucks you should change fluids before they suggest you should cause you are exposing that vehicle to extreme conditions that the usual person doesnt expose the vehicle too.
Oh and how is the Dakota on gas? Im thinkin of buying a smaller city truck and im thinkin either a dakota or tacoma.

RE: How many of you drive
Lethal, please tell me your uncle at least changed the oil in it!!!! so you do alot of your own repairs? the gas in the city is actually Great!!!!! i get somewhere around 24 or 25 highway (not towing) and 17, to 19 city, and most of those city miles are chicago miles!!!! Great traffic in chicago!!!! i have a digital display telling me the average miles to gallon im getting, temp, direction all that good stuff, thats how i can be so exact! i would definetly recomend the Dakota though, especially if you take care of it, it will take care of you!!!!
