Inject comfort into every Abbotsford adventure. Visit Renfrew Chrysler and slide inside the 2021 Jeep Gladiator. Despite its compact frame - which measures up to 218-inches in length, 73.8-inches in width, and 76.3-inches in height - this truck delivers a superior cabin experience; and it also proves a better travel companion than its Ford Ranger rival.
Luxury is no longer ignored on the backroads. Instead the new Gladiator offers ample upgrades to drivers. Its spacious five-passenger cabin boasts: head room, 42.8-inches and 40.8-inches; leg room, 41.2-inches and 38.3-inches; and shoulder room, 55.5-inches and 557-inches. Available leather-trimmed seating is bolstered by heating technology; while optional dual-zone climate controls accommodate Abbotsford's wildest weather with ease. A 60/40 split-fold configuration further impresses, enabling drivers to tailor the interior to their specific needs. Adapt to cargo and riders alike.
The 2021 Ford Ranger isn’t so forgiving. This Gladiator competitor offers less space within the cabin, with its limited head room (41-inches and 35.9-inches) and rear shoulder room (55.2-inches) forcing families to endure cramped quarters. This four-passenger truck won’t deliver the same value on the trails.

Searching for premium off-road performance? Visit Renfrew Chrysler in Alberta today to take the 2021 Jeep Gladiator for a spin. Anchored by a 3.6L Pentastar V6, this 4x4 truck proves ready for every terrain - allowing drivers to dominate the backroads and the competition alike.
Achieve potent performance with help from the new Gladiator. Jeep has paired this platform with a rugged V6, delivering 285 HP and 260 lb.-ft of torque to Alberta. A Variable Valve Lift System promotes peerless power control, while a high-lift mode yields superior sequencing on rough terrain. A standard six-speed manual transmission further improves the experience, affording precise handling and enhanced road-feel. Â
Compare this to the performance offered by the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado. This truck features a less robust 2.5L inline-four engine, which yields a mere 200 HP and 191 lb.-ft of torque. To further hinder drivers, it also lacks a standard manual transmission - which can reduce overall control. This can translate to fewer thrills on the backroads.
The 2021 Jeep Gladiator proves the ultimate option for those wanting to inject all-terrain fun into every day. To learn more about this truck - or to request further spec comparisons - contact our team at your earliest convenience.Â
Performance proves more than engine outputs and efficiency ratings. Instead comfort is needed - with Alberta drivers demanding ample cabin dimensions. The pick-up market, they argue, can no longer be exempt from everyday convenience.
Ram agrees. This is why it’s paired the 2021 1500 with a spacious interior - allowing passengers to experience the comfort they deserve. Within the standard crew cab discover a six-rider configuration, with generous proportions offered across both rows:
Â
2021 Ram 1500: Measurements
Head Room: 40.9 inches, 39.8 inches
Leg Room: 40.9 inches, 45.2 inches
Hip Room: 63.4 inches, 63.4 inches
The interior of the new 1500 has been carefully crafted, with Ram emphasizing passenger comfort. Pair its spacious design with plush cloth seating, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and four-way adjusters to assure an optimum highway experience. This pick-up won’t disappoint.
Its rival - the 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 - might, however. Despite sharing a similar crew cab design, this platform proves less accommodating for passengers: particularly in regards to hip room (61.18 inches, 60.24 inches) and rear leg room (43.4 inches). Second row riders may find themselves struggling to enjoy the adventure.

The pick-up segment isn’t often heralded for its efficiency. Massive engines demand equally massive amounts of fuel, after all.
With the release of the 2021 1500, however, Alberta drivers are able to receive a reprieve at the pump - with this model earning up to 20 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway. How does it achieve such a high rating? Ram has paired it with two key technologies:
Â
One - A standard 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine anchors the 1500. This block utilizes both variable valve timing and revised thermal management to enhance sequencing. It’s been carefully tuned to optimize fuel distribution, while its eight-speed automatic transmission seamlessly bolsters every rev.
Two - Active grille shutters flank the front of the new 1500. These (when complemented by a precisely sculpted hood) help to reduce overall drag, redirecting currents as needed to improve aerodynamics.Â
These technologies combine to assure maximum economy, allowing the 2021 1500 to achieve a top-tier MPG rating. It also promises total pump domination over the new Tundra. Toyota’s gas-guzzling V8 earns only 13 MPG in the city and 17 MPG on the highway - forcing drivers to frequently stop their adventures and fill-up. Fun will be compromised.

The 2018 Dodge Journey Crossroad AWD and Subaru Forester 2.5i offer lots of value, boasting 4x4 drivetrains and plenty of passenger space. However, when it comes to power and muscle-requiring tasks like towing, one of this pair stands out above the other.

A high-quality powertrain brings a better driving experience. For an SUV, it can also help with utility tasks like towing. Two of the more popular used options in Alberta, Canada are the 2018 Dodge Journey and the 2018 Nissan Rogue. How do these two compare when you look under the hood?
The 2018 Journey wins the comparison with the Rogue when it comes to power, but its positive attributes don't end with its 283-hp V6 engine. The Dodge's six-speed automatic transmission provides a better driving experience, and it yields more precise handling than the Nissan's CVT.
The 2018 Dodge Journey also comes with a full range of safety and security features. Its tire-pressure monitoring system helps you avoid flats and blowouts, while the Sentry Key anti-theft immobilizer keeps someone else from trying to start your SUV.Â

The seven-seat SUV is also superior to the Nissan Rogue in terms of safety. It comes with Electronic Stability and Traction Control. If you take advantage of its towing prowess, then you will appreciate the Trailer Sway Control, which is standard on this trim.
Even if you do not attach a trailer, you still get plenty of cargo-carrying ability. The back rows in the 2018 Dodge Journey Crossroad fold down to create 1,914 L of open space in the interior.

Both the 2018 Dodge Journey and the 2018 Nissan Rogue provide ample interior space. However, if you are transporting family members, co-workers, or friends regularly, the size of the rear rows will be vitally important.
Here is how these two SUVs compare when it comes to offering comfort to those in the back seats.Â
2018 Dodge Journey
(First/Second/Third Rows) Passenger Capacity: 7 Headroom: 1036 mm/1013 mm/958 mm Hip Room: 1366 mm/1382 mm/1016 mm

Also, you can retract the back bench and enjoy up to 1,914 litres of cargo space on the inside of the SUV. This capacity is an excellent supplement to the maximum 1,133 kg of weight that the 2018 Dodge Journey is capable of towing - making it the clear winner in the crossover competition.
