Oh forgot to mention that after wadding up the Dakota we went for a F250 Super Duty diesel "Who's Your Daddy" and ended up frying the trans twice and mucked up the chipped computer but man that was a towing machine when it worked. Got PO'd after the second trans and the computer, told the Ford dealer it sucked and I was going to get rid of it and buy an old Chevy!
We did buy a 86 K30 Silverado BB SRW and got it all fixed up but my oldest boy had to have it.
