Tackle spring projects head-on with the 2022 Ram 1500 from St. Paul Dodge in Alberta. Unlike its competitor, the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500, this truck's V8 dominates every load with precision, affording superior trailering abilities with its robust performance.To prove our point, let’s compare the 2022 Ram 1500 and 2022 GMC Sierra 1500’s available V8 engines to ensure you choose a pickup that meets your needs and surpasses your expectations:

Why settle for a mild towing experience in Alberta when you can unlock pure hauling power with the all-new 2022 Ram 1500 from St. Paul Dodge? Unlike its main competition, the 2021 Ford F-150, this truck dominates the job site and highway with vigorous towing abilities and stout pulling power.With the 2022 Ram 1500, you can realize diesel supremacy. This pickup, which offers an available 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine on Laramie, Limited Longhorn and Limited trims, can tow an estimated 5,696 kg in conventional trailering when properly equipped. Delivering 260 hp and best-in-class 480 lb-ft of torque, this engine and its eight-speed automatic transmission is the obvious choice to meet your high towing demands.

Few vehicles can compare to the comfort and convenience of a minivan – and another area this segment excels at is technology. Take the trim-topping 2022 Chrysler Pacifica Pinnacle as an example. This platform – available from St. Paul Dodge – connects Alberta families to slick infotainment features that promise to add pleasure to any trip.Anchoring the dash of the 2022 Pacifica Pinnacle is a Uconnect 5 multimedia centre with a 10.1-inch touchscreen display, which is the largest standard touchscreen in its class. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities provide seamless smartphone integration, while a wireless charging pad ensures quick and easy charging of devices. Audiophiles love the 18-speaker Harman Kardon audio system that fills the cabin with incredible sound. Back-seat passengers can also enjoy Uconnect Theatre, which includes dual 10.1-inch rear touchscreens and Amazon Fire TV integration with over 10,000+ streaming apps to enjoy in-car entertainment.
In comparison, the 2022 Toyota Sienna’s infotainment features aren’t as rich. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities come standard, but they are not wireless like the 2022 Pacifica Pinnacle. The touchscreen is also smaller (nine inches versus the Pinnacle’s 10.1-inches), and the rear-seat entertainment system lacks streaming ability. When it comes to keeping passengers happy, the 2022 Pacifica Pinnacle is the clear winner.

If you’re shopping for a minivan with powertrain choices, stop into St. Paul Dodge to discover the 2022 Chrysler Pacifica. Alberta drivers can select from two engine options, including a fuel-efficient V6 and a hybrid powertrain.The 2022 Pacifica comes with a 3.6L V6 engine, which delivers 287 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard and drives either the front wheels or all four with the optional all-wheel-drive system. With best-in-class towing of up to 3,600 lbs, the 2022 Pacifica also ensures exceptional fuel economy and engine efficiency with a gas highway rating of 8.4 L/100 km.
Opting for the 2022 Pacifica Hybrid is a smart choice for families looking to lead a greener lifestyle. This variant uses a 3.6L V6 engine and a 16-kWh lithium-ion battery that seamlessly switches between the two systems to maximum efficiency and partially self-charge the battery through regenerative braking. The Pacifica can travel up to 50 km in all-electric mode and provide a combined driving range of 835 km.Â
The 2022 Honda Odyssey, on the other hand, is only offered with one powertrain choice – a 280-hp 3.6L V6 engine with 262 lb-ft of torque and a 10-speed automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. Fuel economy on this variant is higher than the 2022 Pacifica’s gasoline engine, earning 8.5 L/100 km on the highway.

When it comes to family-friendly versatility, nothing comes close to the adaptability of a minivan. Boasting three rows of seating with room for cargo and people alike, this is a segment that caters to real life. The all-new 2022 Chrysler Pacifica – available at St. Paul Dodge in AB – is no exception. The 2022 Pacifica is the only vehicle in its class to offer Stow ‘n Go seating and storage systems for the second and third rows. Whether you need to transport passengers or cargo, converting the interior of this minivan is easy. With numerous seating combinations, the Pacifica accommodates seven or eight passengers, depending on the trim you choose. You can also conveniently remove the centre second-row seat to make more space for extra cargo.
The 2022 Toyota Sienna, on the other hand, isn’t as versatile as the Chrysler. Like the Pacifica, the Sienna provides three rows of seating for seven or eight people. However, the second-row seats cannot be removed, hampering the minivan’s hauling abilities. Cargo capacity behind the 2022 Sienna’s second row is 2,129 litres, while the 2022 Pacifica boasts 2,478 litres of maximum volume.
Enjoy unmatched interior adaptability in the 2022 Chrysler Pacifica. To learn how this model stacks up to its competition, get in touch with our team at St. Paul Dodge in Alberta.
2022 Chrysler Pacifica Delivers Ride Comfort to Cold Lake

The value of a minivan extends beyond seating capacity and interior versatility. Instead, Alberta families demand ride comfort for all of life’s travels. The 2022 Chrysler Pacifica – now available at St. Paul Dodge – surpasses expectations with smooth driving dynamics.The 2022 Pacifica features a unibody structure and single unit upper body and frame, which offers better handling and ride comfort versus body-on-frame vehicles. This minivan also features a MacPherson strut layout in the front that works in unison with an independent rear suspension. This contributes to the minivan’s favourable on-road dynamics that smooth over bumps and imperfections with great precision.
The Kia Carnival, on the other hand, is an all-new minivan with an impressive design and seating capacity. But where this competitor falls short is its ride comfort. The 2022 model features a four-wheel independent suspension that struggles to provide balanced handling while maneuvering over bad stretches of road. Passengers feel jostled when the suspension reacts firmly to bumps and potholes. When it comes to ride comfort, the 2022 Pacifica is the clear winner.
Are you curious about the Chrysler Pacifica and how it compares to the Carnival and other minivans? Contact our team at St. Paul Dodge in AB to schedule a test drive and request additional specs.
