Seating  
The Dakota offers four standard doors on every model. And they open nearly 90 degrees for easier loading and unloading. Whether you choose Quad Cab® or Club Cab® Dakota gives you more size and more value in the perfect midsize package. Step inside and you’ll find:
  • Best-in-class* overall interior space on Club Cab and Quad Cab
  • Available six-passenger comfort, versatile 60/40 split folding rear bench and 37 cubic feet of storage space (Quad Cab)
  • New rear access doors and 30 cubic feet of interior cargo space with rear seats up (Club Cab)
  • High level of standard features, including CD player
  • Only pickup truck with available heated cloth seats
  • Available full swing doors
Driver Display
Dakota’s easy-to-read instrument panel features three large white-faced electroluminescent gauges that turn a cool shade of blue in the dark for glare-free nighttime driving visibility.
Stereo
We broke the mold by equipping Dakota with a CD player and AM/FM stereo with auxiliary jack . You can also choose the available six-disc CD player with MP3 capability for up to 60 hours of continuous music, and a 276-watt six-speaker Alpine® system (standard on Laramie, available on SLT). A SIRIUS® satellite radio system is also available on all models.
Heated Bucket Seats
Seat-of-your-pants performance meets heat-of-your-pants comfort when you opt for the segment-exclusive heated front cloth or leather-trimmed bucket seats. That means you can only get them on Dakota. Unless you’re willing to settle for a luxury sedan. Not available on ST “A” package.
Overhead Console
What’s up? That would be Dakota’s overhead console with trip computer, electronic compass, and outside temperature display. It also includes a HomeLink® three-channel universal home security system transceiver and dual courtesy lamps (standard on Laramie, available on SLT).
Interior Room
You don't need to cram it in. Dakota Club Cab® models provide the most overall interior space of any midsize truck. Which means plenty of room for up to five passengers with 40/40 dual rear seats with folding cushions (available on ST), available full swing doors, and 30 cubic feet of storage behind the rear seat.
Storage
The biggest of them all. Quad Cab® models feature four full-size doors that open nearly 90 degrees for easier loading and unloading. Best-in-class* overall interior space. Bring it.
