I had a 1999 Dodge Dakota Clubcab 3.9L V6 4WD Pickup and didn't have any problems. Prior to that I had a 1992 Ram LE Shortbed with a 5.2L V8 also didn't have any problems. Most of the time the reliability issue comes up it's due to poor maintenance on the owner's part. I only had a couple of warranty issues.
I like the looks of the Magnum, but it's not a car that I would buy. Too many doors. Be sure that the Magnum can trailer about 5500#. That should cover the weight of the Jeep and the trailer and some gear.

old dodge > new dodge
and i mean old, as in 60's-70's. prepare for things to just fall apart. IE; doorhandles, interior, exterior....motor might last, but i wouldn't buy a new dodge. ever.

I got to sport it down the track. I only did 13's, then again, it was my first time driving it. He gets low 12s. Oh, I should say, this is a baracuda.

But hey, it's got a HEMI, so it must be cool.
