The 2001 Dodge Dakota is available with different engines, including two V8 options: the 4.7L or 5.9L. For routine maintenance, it is best to use SAE 5W-30 motor oil. Considering the vehicle's age, a high mileage oil might be a good choice. While it is possible to use SAE 5W-40 oil in emergencies, it is not recommended as it may cause increased engine wear due to its lower viscosity. With your Dakota already reaching 19 years of age, it's important to take proper care to ensure it lasts for many more years.
