The 2021 GMC Sierra 1500, on the other hand, earned a Marginal score for the small overlap front passenger assessment due to a poor structure and safety cage and lower leg/foot occupant injury measures. When keeping your crew and family protected in an accident, you don’t want to settle for second-best.
The 2022 Ram 1500 also earned an Advanced grade for the crash avoidance and mitigation category for vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention, unlike the 2021 GMC Sierra 1500, which did not rank for this assessment.

Are you trying to decide between the 2022 Jeep Cherokee and the 2022 Toyota RAV4? If you’re looking for an SUV offering powertrain options, the Cherokee – which is available now at St. Paul Dodge – far exceeds its Japanese counterpart.The 2022 Cherokee offers Alberta drivers the choice of three engines, starting with a 2.4L four-cylinder with 180 hp and 171 lb-ft of torque. Moving up is a more robust 3.2L V6 that generates 271 hp and 239 lb-ft of torque. Finally, a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder ensures spirited performance with 270 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. Regardless of the block you choose, all engines pair to a nine-speed automatic transmission delivering smooth shifting capabilities.
The 2022 Toyota RAV4 only matches the power of the Cherokee’s base engine with a 2.5L four-cylinder. This block generates 203 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque – but that’s where it ends. The RAV4 is not available with a V6 or any other gasoline engine. What you see is what you get – including an eight-speed automatic transmission.
Another advantage of the 2022 Cherokee is its trailering prowess. The Jeep SUV’s base engine surpasses the RAV4’s 680-kg hauling capability with a maximum 907-kg towing capacity. The V6 and turbocharged four-cylinder can also tow an impressive 2,041 and 1,814 kg, respectively. Whether you pull a boat or a camper, the Cherokee is well-equipped to handle your towing demands.

2022 Ram 1500 Delivers Payload Ease in Elk Point

The 2022 Ram 1500 – offered at St. Paul Dodge in Alberta – pairs its impressive max pulling power of up to 5,783 kg with innovative bed features that enhance the payload abilities of this truck. One example is the Ram 1500’s multifunction tailgate, which delivers divided-door flexibility. This ingenious feature far surpasses the 2022 Ford F-150’s standard tailgate in terms of convenience and versatility.Every trim of the 2022 Ram 1500 offers the available multifunction tailgate. The 60/40-split, swing-away doors provide quick access to the cargo bed without reaching over a conventional fold-down hatch. However, when big jobs call for traditional tailgate accessibility, the Ram 1500 can be lowered, holding up to 907 kg (2,000 lbs) in the open position.
The 2022 Ford F-150, on the other hand, does not offer divided-door accessibility into the truck’s bed. Instead, the only option is a conventional hatch that reveals a flat surface to write on. The maximum weight load for the Blue Oval’s tailgate is also not rated – meaning that Alberta drivers need to be careful when loading the bed with heavy cargo.
