I finally got a new truck after driving an old bronco II. Its a 2000 Dakota V-8, 4 WD, and its fully loaded. I have been wanting one of these for a while now but I didnt really have the money, and a friend of my dads found it at a ford dealership. I love it. Its bone stock and only has 34,000 miles. I can't wait to do some off roading with it. What do ya all think about it?

Hehe, your in the same boat I am. Just picked up a 97 Gmc with 34k on it myself.

Those dakotas go pretty well with the 318. You can get some meaty tires on there (Bfg M/'t's rock) and I think the max size on the dakota is like 265/75/16 with anything meaty. I put some 275's on the rear of an ex girlfreinds mom's 2wd dakota but I doubt they would clear on the front (plus, they were street tires). I haven't seen any of these lifted but I'm sure there are some kits out there to get the Ifs to clear some meat.
