The mid-size pickup market isn't hotly contested, and excluding the HUMMER H3T, the players are all kind of stale.
The V-8 in the 2008 Dodge Dakota gives it a distinct advantage in power over the five-cylinder Chevy and GMC mid-size twins, as well as the six-cylinder Tacoma, Frontier, and Ridgeline.
However, the imports offer quality and dynamic performance advantages over the Dodge.
New for 2009, only the HUMMER H3T Alpha model offers a V-8, and at nearly $40,000, it's much pricier than the Dodge.
