2011 Dodge Dakota Owners Manual

2011 Dodge Dakota Owners Manual - Good day our dearest visitors. This is an online blog which shares all info that related to the owners manual book.  We will update this blog daily, so do not worry to come back. All right, here we have the review about 2011 Dodge Dakota. Read this before downloading the file.

According to edmunds for the 2011 Dodge Dakota.

The 2011 Ram Dakota gains a couple of important safety features, namely antilock brakes and side curtain airbags, on its list of standard features. The navigation system is no longer available and the off-road-oriented TRX4 model has been discontinued. Also, the truck is now known as the Ram Dakota rather than Dodge Dakota.

Every 2011 Ram Dakota is powered by a standard 3.7-liter V6 engine that produces 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. A four-speed automatic is the only transmission available with this engine. Rear-wheel drive is standard on all Dakotas, with four-wheel drive being available as an option. Fuel economy registers an EPA-estimated 15 mpg city/20 mpg highway and 17 mpg combined for rear-wheel-drive models, and 14/18/15 mpg for 4WD versions. When properly equipped, the maximum towing capacity of V6 models is 4,950 pounds.

If you're a hard-core truck buyer who doesn't necessarily want a stylish interior, you won't have a problem with the Dakota's cabin. Everyone else will probably flinch at the cheap plastics, low-quality switchgear and overall industrial feel. The Dakota's interior layout is actually pretty straightforward and perfectly functional.

While the 2011 Ram Dakota's 3.7-liter V6 is fine for tooling around town, it feels noticeably less robust when driven back-to-back with V6-powered models from Nissan and Toyota. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that we recommend the much gutsier 4.7-liter V8 engine here for anyone looking to carry heavy loads or tow a sizable trailer.

Ram engineers made an effort to improve the Dakota's harsh ride last year with new recalibrated suspension components, though we haven't yet had an opportunity to evaluate the results of those changes. Stopping distances -- already pretty impressive when we tested a 4WD Dakota a few years ago -- should be even better now with the addition of standard antilock brakes across the model lineup.
