The 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport and Honda Ridgeline Sport both offer a four-door design that maximises passenger-carrying space.

The Jeep's biggest advantage comes from its drivetrain components. For example, it has a Tru-Lok electronic locking differential, which can help it power out of slippery spots without missing a beat. You also get the Command-Trac part-time 4x4 system featuring a two-speed transfer case with a low gear mode for crawling or towing a maximum weight load.Â

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. Here is a closer look at the drivetrains of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator and the Ford Ranger.
