Just a head up, check the front ball joints (upper ones were recalled).
I have the same truck (bought brand new) with 115000 miles and have replaced them three times.
I love my Dakota
its heavy to tow around 4500lb without a cap but easy set up and nice to put stuff in the back
also you might not want to run the key in acc to unlock the steering wheel.
I take it one more klick and added a battery disconnect.(I learned a lesson when I took a turn and bump and the key jumped out of acc and locked the steering wheel, only drug the front wheels turned for 50' before pulling over)
I towed it every so often now since I have a 2014 crv.
