Pictures description:

Eric is standing next to his 1997 Dakota Sport (then with 48,500 miles). It looks black in this picture, but it's actually Emerald Green Pearl Coat (factory). It was a winner of the 1998 Best Buy Top Ten Show and Shine in Lakeland, Florida (in that contest, it had just over 36,000 miles).
