Are you looking for a powerful pickup that is offered in both gasoline and diesel versions? Then you need to ask our experts at O’Connor Chrysler about the 2021 Jeep Gladiator. Compared to the 2021 Ford Ranger, it is far superior.
Â
The standard motor is a 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 that delivers 285 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with your choice of a 6-speed manual or 8-speed automatic, it always comes with the Command-Trac 4x4 system. Plus, it can haul up to 3,469 kg (7,650 lbs) with no problem. You can also opt for the available 3.0-litre Ecodiesel V6. Producing 260 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque, it can haul 2,948 kg (6,500 lbs).
Â
On the other hand, the Ford Ranger models all use the 2.3-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder unit. Generating 270 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, it isn’t as strong as the Gladiator. Partnered with a 10-speed automatic transmission, the base is fitted with RWD. If you want 4WD, you have to add it on. As for pulling, it can only manage up to 1,587 kg (3,500 lbs), which is significantly lower.
