The 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and Ford Ranger Lariat are both capable 4x4 vehicles. However, when it comes to overall performance and the ability to handle off-road driving and poor weather conditions, one of these mid-sized pickups stands out.Â
Here is a closer look at the drivetrains of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator and the Ford Ranger.
2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
Engine: 3.6L V6 Transmission: 6-speed manual Drivetrain: Rock Trac 4x4 Axles: Dana M210 and M220Â
The 2021 Gladiator Rubicon features Jeep’s Rock-Trac heavy-duty 4x4 system and the state-of-the-art Tru-Lok electronic differential. The 33-inch Falken tires, meanwhile, ensure extra grip on mud, sand, and snow. You can even receive an alert if you reach the optimum pressure level when removing air in preparation for off-road situations.Â
You also get Fox heavy-duty shocks. These elements ensure comfort as you roll over rough terrain while providing the necessary steering feel to keep you in full control. Finally, the front sway bar can disconnect to allow for enhanced crawling capabilities in low 4x4 mode.Â
