  • Find the 2022 Chrysler 300 for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

With Chrysler slowly working towards the people moving brand, they still uphold the title of being one of the top luxury car options. The Chrysler 300 made its first debut in 2005 as a four-door luxury vehicle. Then again in 2011 the second generation was released with new upgrades and features. Well, 11 years have passed, and Chrysler has yet again revealed the Chrysler 300 that is now in its 3rd generation, and better than ever. This four-door luxury sedan holds the key components that consumers have loved since the first generation. Things like having a V-6 powertrain, eight-speed automatic rear-wheel drive, a comfortable and spacious cabin, etc. There have already been 2 generations with modest differences. So, what makes the 2022 Chrysler 300 better? 

Chrysler 300 Models

To start, we’ll tell you all four of the model names and prices. The model names along with their starting prices are listed below:

  • Touring ($33,740)
  • Touring L ($37,240)
  • 300S V6 ($42,350)
  • 300S V8 ($45,350)

As you can see, the Chrysler 300 price, specifically the V8 is over $10,000 more than the Touring. We know that whether it’s a black Chrysler 300 or a white Chrysler 300 or any other color that they offer wouldn’t necessarily make the price jump that much, so let’s take a look at the 2022 Chrysler 300 features. 

Chrysler 300 Features & Specs

Starting off with the exterior color options, for the V6 they offer gloss-black and bright white for no additional charge, granite crystal metallic for an additional $195, silver mist also for an additional $195, and the last available color is velvet red for an additional whopping $495. More exterior details minus the exterior part, the 2022 Chrysler 300 will have keyless ignition, a rear view camera, a tilt and telescopic steering wheel, audio and cruise controls. A lot of the exterior overall image closely resembles the first and second generations, however, some say that this third generation gives a more muscular look.

Interior Details

Chrysler is known as a luxury automaker for a reason. With their previous generation interiors being equipped with cloth seats, the new Chrysler 300 is fashioned with leather-trimmed sport seats and ventilated leather trim sports seats. There are also adaptable headrests, door sill scuff pads, heated front and second row seats, heated steering wheel, illuminated front and rear cupholders, power backlight sunshade, pocket lights throughout, trunk mats, memory for radio, driver seat and exterior mirrors, and more. What more could you ask for? All these features are available on all except the base model. 

The cargo space is also fairly spacious, allowing room for 6 carry-on suitcases in the trunk and with the seats folded, it will allow a total of 10. But keep in mind that though the seats can be split in 60/40 arrangements, they don’t fold completely flat. The 2022 Chrysler 300 also contains a standard 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment that has CarPlay and Android Auto interfaces, a SiriusXM satellite radio with a one-year trial period, as well as an in-dash navigation.  

Additional Details

Aside from the exterior and interior details, safety and driver-assistance features include the Safety Tec Plus package. This package is available for all the base models. Some of the key safety features include an automated emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keeping assistance. The available limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles; the powertrain warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles. The V6 has a 3.6 liter under the hood with an estimate of 30 mpg in the real-world testing.

Dodge Has Jokes

Apr 15, 2022
  • Auto Brand Dodge has announced their plans for future electric muscle cars as well as the introduction of a new hydrogen powered vehicle: The Dodge Hydra.
  • The Dodge Hydra will be released in 2023, whereas the all electric Dodge is set to be released in 2024.
  • Find Dodge cars for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

On April Fool’s Day of 2022, Dodge announced that although they will be producing an all electric vehicle, they will also be producing something more their style: a hydrogen powered vehicle, replacing the notorious Hellcat Charger with the Dodge Hydra. Unfortunately, this is an April Fool’s joke. If you fell for the joke, don’t beat yourself up about it, we fell for it too. However, we are wondering if this “joke” could become a reality? Dodge has revealed that in 2022 they will be introducing 3 NEW vehicles, and that’s not a joke. 

Dodge Brotherhood of Muscle Rundown

The well known and loved Dodge Charger Muscle cars have been around since the 1960s and 70s. They are known for their incredible speed, horsepower, sound and style. With the ever changing requirements from lawmakers, Dodge has been able to keep their muscle cars up to date. However, the muscle car director admitted that they might have jumped the gun with announcing the Dodge EV. This is due to pressure from their competitors. So, when Dodge revealed that they were releasing the Dodge Hydra before the release of the EV, we were skeptical. 

Could Dodge Hydra be the Future?

The Parthenon Where The Dodge Hydra Could Exist

In the past, when people thought of cars of the future, a depiction of flying cars was often the expectation. But automakers have come up with an even more challenging and environmentally friendly car: A hydrogen powered vehicle. In the ongoing April Fools joke, the director of the muscle car development, spoke about the name “Hydra” comparing it to the mythological creature where if one head is cut off, two heads grow back. Chopping off the combustion aspect, the first head growing back would be an electric vehicle and the second head would be a hydrogen running vehicle. But this new name is not the only thing Dodge mentioned about upgrading.


They talked about the possibility of a vehicle having 800 horsepower, which is notably higher than their past vehicles coming in at 400-600. Dodge automakers are asking all of the necessary questions of why someone would sell their 2021-2022 Dodge Hellcat and upgrade to the future vehicles that are taking over the market. With the 3 new Dodge cars, there is talk about new interior designs, better gas mileage, and an overall new and better feel to the muscle car design. If their goal is to make people want to switch to the new Dodge cars, then they are on the right track by including new upgrades in multiple aspects.

Although Dodge gave the public one of the best April Fool’s jokes, the thought of a Dodge hydrogen powered vehicle is very intriguing. We can’t wait to see what they produce not only for the Dodge EV, but also other new Dodge vehicles. Here at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM, we will carry the newest models of Dodge. Aside from carrying new models, we also carry a large variety of other vehicles ranging from electric, to gas powered, and possibly hydrogen powered.

Jeep Logo From 1980s
  • The history of autobrand Jeep is a rich one filled with models from over 80 years ago including the first military vehicles.
  • Evolution of Jeep since the beginning, splitting up models via decade.
  • The future of Jeep is bright with fully electric Jeeps and you can find them for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

Jeep: a small, sturdy motor vehicle with four-wheel drive, especially one used by the military. The first definition of Jeep has been long surpassed by its capabilities of just serving as a military vehicle. For 80 years now, Jeep has been an SUV, truck, and even a combination of the two. It has been through war, hardships, and even a pandemic–but they are still going strong. Let’s take a look at the evolution of Jeep to see just how far they’ve come:

The First Jeeps

Willys Quad (top photo) is the very first Jeep that was made back in 1940 to serve as a U.S. military vehicle. The military solicited 135 automakers for a military specific vehicle and only 3 decided to take the challenge in creating a vehicle with the difficult parameters. Those automakers were Bantam, Willys, and Ford. They collectively produced the vehicle that we know today as the Jeep. Now it is still a mystery of who/how they came up with the name Jeep, but there have been several theories out there. But we’ll let your imagination take on that question.

Jeeps Of The 1940’s

1940-1946 the names of the Jeep models seemed to focus around the name “Willy”; Willys Ma (black & white photo above), Willys MB, Willys Overland Truck, and a personal favorite, Willys Wagon (above photo). After the war, Jeep made its way into farmlands, becoming the number 1 vehicle for farmers–who woulda thought?! ​​The Jeep has been named the “work vehicle” because it never fails to get the job done.

The photo above is of a Jeep and its first interior updates. Aside from more cushiony seats, this particular model includes a single windshield wiper on the drivers side so even though you might be soaking wet, your windshield will be clear. All jokes aside, the early years of Jeep made some really impressive models, some that other automakers are still striving to replicate. Take the 1948 Jeepster for example (photo below). This is the very first Jeep convertible that gives vibes of youthful, sporty, and a little bit of Cruella DeVille.

Jeeps Of The 1950’s

Jumping to the 1950s, Jeep was bought by Henry J. Kaiser, who officially named the company “Willys Motor inc.”.  During the 1950s Willys Motor inc. was named the world’s largest 4-wheel drive automaker. With Jeep growing in popularity, it was time for the company to start meeting regular civilian needs, like a vehicle with more space. Thus the Jeep CJ-6 was born (photo above). The 1950s were a crazy time for Jeep, exploring all of the possibilities of a vehicle, including this 1957 Jeep FC-150 (photo below) that looks like it came right out of Bob the Builder: ​​

Jeeps Of The 1960’s & 1970’s

Going right along in the 1960s, we start to see more of the Jeep classics, such as this blast from the past, 1963 Jeep Wagoneer, aka the American dream car.

​​

This very first luxury 4×4 SUV was every parent’s dream back in the day. This style of vehicle was number 1 in the U.S. for 28 years with only minor mechanical updates. That’s one of the longest same-vehicle production models in the history of U.S. vehicles! Sneaking a peek into the 1970s, Jeep’s models of the truck were starting to take off thanks to this special edition J4800 Camper (photo below). Going along with the idea of a work truck,  Jeep made several models of Jeep that include the Honcho, aka J-10 or J-20 (photo below camper) that were small 4 wheel drive pickup trucks. With the Honcho, which means boss, they worked with other brands like Levi, who did the denim interior of this truck.

The last 1970s Jeep vehicle we’ll take a peek at is the Jeep Golden Eagle Package (photo above) which features the first Jeep sunroof. Aside from including the luxury aspect of a mesh top with a sunroof, this Golden Eagle Jeep also had a clock. 

The Jeeps Of Today

Jeeps Of The 1980’s & 1990’s

Jumping right into the 1980s, this iconic compact SUV is a rare sight in the 21st century, BUT we must admit that it’s pretty impressive when you see this oldie driving around town with ease. Now that’s what we call aging with beauty. During the 1980’s, we see some big changes in the evolution of Jeep. The first design of this Jeep Cherokee XJ (below top) was made out of clay and took $250 million to actually create. It makes sense how it’s still around in 2022. Taking notes from the $250 million creation, the Jeep designers in the 1990s didn’t hesitate to draw inspiration from this authentic design, creating the 1993 Jeep Grand Wagoneer (below middle) as well as the 1997 Jeep Wrangler (below bottom)  that was popular well into the early 2000s.

Jeeps Of The 2000’s

Looking more closely at the last decade, Jeep’s design has grown more modern but also sticking to their roots with the ideas of a military vehicle working towards freedom, and justice. The names of the models go along with the overall theme and goal of Jeep: Liberty-2022 (below top), Wrangler Unlimited-2004 (below middle), and the Patriot-2007 (MK) (below right), just to name a few.

Jeeps Of The 2010’s

The 2010s are when Jeep impacted customers to the point where their global sales increased immensely and by 2016 they had sold 1.41 millions units. All models that helped this brand really pick up the pace are still widely sold and bought. A few examples being, the Jeep Renegade-2015 (below top), the Jeep Compass-2017 (below middle), and the most updated version of the Jeep Wrangler-2019 (below right). Jeep has been making big moves since the very beginning. We are happy to announce that Jeep now has two windshield wipers instead of just one, with an extremely impressive and luxurious interior. ​​Regardless of if it’s 1940 or 2022, Jeep has always kept the same goal when releasing new models of their vehicles: Go Anywhere, Do Anything with Jeep. To learn more about the evolution of Jeep, we encourage you to visit the Jeep website

Looking Ahead At The Jeeps Of Tomorrow

The evolution of Jeep continues into the 22nd century with the “futuristic” changes for tomorrow. Jeep has already done it yet again with releasing teaser photos of an all electric Jeep set to release in 2023. It’s only the third month of 2022 and we already can’t wait for this year to be over. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been hardly any information released about this All Electric Jeep, except for the teaser photos, but the photos alone have us saying, oh me, oh my, I want that Jeep. After looking at some of Jeep’s very first models, we can definitely see where they drew their inspiration from.

Virtual Frame of RAM Electric Truck
  • The new launch of Ram’s new website allows customers to give their input on the production of electric Ram trucks.
  • No specific numbers were claimed when discussing the RAM 1500 EV’s maximum tow rating, RAM claimed their All Electric Pickup Truck will be able to pull more than its EV competitors.
  • Find the 2024 Ram 1500 for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

RAM, the brand known for its Guts. Glory. RAM ads, is creating a new legacy to be remembered by – the brand is taking an unconventional and unique approach to the creation and development of the RAM 1500 EV, the first RAM electric truck. By launching a website as well as implementing a yearlong talking tour, RAM asks for feedback and input regarding the production of the company’s first All Electric Pickup Truck, set to launch in 2024.

The Revolution of RAM

With the release of RAM’s new website called Ram Revolution, RAM wants to give regular everyday people the chance to provide input on and learn more about the production of the RAM Electric Pickup Truck and its design. RAM Revolution, which went public recently, allows RAM to hear the wants and needs, worries and concerns, and questions that consumers have about the RAM 1500 EV. Users of the site also have access to updates, as well as exclusive content and information about the RAM Electric Truck. Finally, according to RAM, the website is intended to educate consumers more deeply about the development process of electric vehicles at the company.

The strategy RAM has adopted in the production of the All Electric Pickup Truck is truly revolutionary. By involving customers, taking in their feedback and concerns, RAM is sure to produce a great product that not only they can be proud of, but also anyone who submitted their input or expressed their thoughts and opinions. Additionally, the brand provides an amazing way of crowdsourcing and gaining traction. While there’s no promise about what RAM will do with the feedback they receive, we are hopeful that the brand will take the public’s input to heart and create a truck everyone will love.

The RAM Electric Truck Is Getting Real

RAM Revolution isn’t the only thing up the brand’s sleeve however. RAM also plans to conduct a yearlong talking tour, dubbed the RAM Real Talk Tour. With similar intentions as the website, the tour’s aim is to get feedback from RAM owners; finding out what they actually need and want from electric trucks and vans in their everyday lives.

Through the RAM Real Talk Tour, RAM proves to be a huge fan of alliteration, and more importantly it shows that they care about their customers’ opinions and needs. The tour will also be an amazing plan, as it strengthens the consumer and brand relationship, helps the company define its future, and allows RAM to begin offering electrified models in most segments as early as 2025.

The RAM Electric Truck So Far

In General:

As we already know, the RAM 1500 EV will be the first RAM pickup truck powered completely by electricity and will be released in 2024. The RAM Electric Truck is expected to have conventional body-on-frame construction and standard all-wheel drive, as stated by RAM. Additionally, it will have a driving range of up to 500 miles (200 miles longer than the longest-range F-150 Lightning can achieve). More specific details about the capabilities and actions of the RAM EV have yet to be announced, but we can make predictions based on the statements released by RAM.

Predictions:

While no specific numbers were claimed when discussing the RAM 1500 EV’s maximum tow rating, RAM claimed their All Electric Pickup Truck will be able to pull more than its EV competitors. Currently, the industry leader for EV trucks– the F-150 Lightning– has an official maximum towing capacity of 10,000 pounds, so we can expect the RAM electric truck’s max to exceed that.

Similar to towing capacity, there are no certain figures regarding the RAM 1500 EV’s battery size or charging times. However, estimations claim that the All Electric Pickup Truck will be able to charge at a rate of up to 150 kWh.

Counting Down Till 2024…

With the amount of customer involvement, effort, and collaboration going into the RAM 1500 EV, we know that the company’s first ever All-Electric Pickup Truck will be a huge success. Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram will be patiently waiting for 2024 to come because we can’t wait for this amazing vehicle to hit our floor! Of course, we will continue to give updates and information about the truck’s production, but please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have about the RAM 1500 EV, RAM Revolution, or RAM Real Talk Tour.

If you’re looking for something different– a car, SUV, or van, OR something that is available now, not in 2024 – feel free to stop by our dealership or to call us! We have a range of options for new cars & used cars and would love to help you find the vehicle that best fits you and your needs.

Driver-friendly, Planet-Friendly

The “Most Planet-Friendly Wrangler Ever” is a big claim to live up to. Jeep 4xe isn’t scared of a challenge. The vehicle offers three different driving modes to choose from:  electric, e-save, and hybrid. Electric mode can be activated when the vehicle has more than a 1% charge, it allows for almost zero tailpipe emissions up to highway speed, and can stay in this mode for up to 21 miles. The E-Save mode focuses on the 2.0L engine, saving battery charge for later usage. In E-Save mode, when power demand is low, the engine will shut off. Finally, the Hybrid mode combines both previous options, creating maximum horsepower, instant torque, and the optimal acceleration. In the Hybrid mode, electric power is consumer first. So, you can drive around your city in full electric with zero emissions as well as travel far efficiently.

Two Dodge Muscle Cars
  • It’s the end of an era with auto brand Dodge retiring the much loved Dodge Challenger and Charger in 2024.
  • The future of Dodge muscle cars entails all electric, hybrid, and a third model that is yet to be revealed.
  • Find the Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

Dodge is anticipating a busy two years as they are planning a plug-in hybrid, an EV, and a third vehicle as they are saying goodbye to the Challenger coupe as well as the Charger sedan. The production of these two popular vehicles is anticipated to end in two years when Dodge will be replacing them with new cars on new platforms. In addition to these new vehicles, Dodge is also planning on producing a battery-powered RAM 1500 as well as other electric trucks. 

Muscle Cars Are Changing

CEO Tim Kuniskis announced this July that Dodge would obtain their first pure EV in 2024. This muscle car will be much faster than past Dodge vehicles. They come from STLA Large which is said to give around 500 miles from one single charge. These battery sizes will also range from 101-118 kilowatt hours which are specifically designed for muscle cars and all-wheel drive vehicles. Stellantis CEO, Carlos Tavares has said that 98 percent of models coming from 14 brands in North America and Europe will be electrified by 2025.

Kuniskis has stated the electric muscle car concept will be released by late 2022. It will run on Stellantsis’s “STLA large EV” platform that will run to around 500 miles of range. Batteries and motors are the natural evolution of these vehicles, as technology is now consistently being used to enhance many vehicles. This “e-muscle” vehicle is said to have a super retro look as well as include a reincarnated Fratzog logo. 

New Plug-In Hybrid

Dodge will be launching their plug-in hybrid in 2022, potentially a smaller SUV. These will have much better fuel economy than Dodge’s past conventional vehicles. Dodge has also teased their audience with both the Fratzgo name as well as their logo. It was first used in the 60’s, simply to describe a logo. It is very high tech and modern looking. Kuniskis also says it looks like it represents electrification. To differentiate Dodge’s electric vehicles from the rest, they will place the Fratzog symbol only on the all new electric vehicles. 

Third New Model Coming

There are not many new details on the third vehicle Dodge is releasing, but Kuniskis says it will be extremely significant to the brand by the end of the year. This third model will be released in addition to the all new plug-in hybrid car as well as the battery electric Dodge car. Dodge is also bringing back Direct Connection performance parts and kits, which is also very important for these muscle vehicles. 

The Future of Dodge

Currently, Dodge only has three nameplates on aging platforms. Stellantis CEO has given each of the automakers brands a total of 10 years to execute their businesses and product plans. This news will be extremely helpful to a brand like Dodge. As Dodge has only had two main vehicles for many years, the release of these new models should increase their sales. Kuniskis has stated that the Challenger has stayed consistent with sales, and has had one of their most successful years. Older models, such as the Hellcat models are said to not last past 2023, especially after the production of Dodges all new vehicles. Dodge has also released its never lift campaign.

Inside View Of 2021 Chrysler Pacifica
  • The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica and the 2021 Toyota Sienna have earned their place at the top of the minivan segment.
  • Both minivans offer great value to families, the Pacifica with its exceptional technology & versatility and the Sienna with its space.
  • Find the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

A decade ago, minivans were the prized and most wanted vehicle for families. With the introduction of larger SUVs like the Chevrolet Tahoe, minivans have been on the decline. Despite their versatility and interior space, their exterior and designs were not as appealing as the three-row crossover SUVs. With all the adversity and high competition, Chrysler and Toyota have come a long way with developing the minivan into a comfortable and economical vehicle that will reach the top. The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica and the 2021 Toyota Sienna are the pinnacle of the minivans

The Minivan Is Alive And Ready To Conquer

The minivan is not dead and in fact, they are on the incline. Chrysler, Toyota, and even Kia are investing in the launching of new models in efforts to regain their audience. On the current market, the Toyota Sienna and the Chrysler Pacifica are the only two minivans that are gasoline-electric hybrids that not only save families money, but cater to their needs of comfort and safety.

The Matchup Of The Century

Since there are currently only 2 hybrid minivans on the market, let’s take a look into these 2 vehicles and see what separates them apart.

The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica

The Pacifica is a plug-in hybrid that provides over 30 miles of pure electric driving range. The Pacifica has received a few exterior upgrades as well as an overall facelift with a new all-wheel-dove option that will excite and entice customers. Looking at the power of this minivan, the Pacifica remains the same as last year’s model with a 3.6 liter V-6 engine.

Chrysler has not revealed the fuel economy exact numbers, but the gas-only mode is 29/30/30 mpg and the gas+electric mode is 87/76/82 mpg-e. The Pacifica comes with all the bells and whistles a minivan lover could ask for such as the rear seat entertainment package with screens for passengers and 11 USB ports. The interior also has nice leather seats, a 5-inch infotainment screen and a panoramic sunroof. To say the least the Chrysler Pacifica is decked out and would satisfy any customer who was looking for a family car. 

The 2021 Toyota Sienna

The Sienna is powered by a traditional gas-electric hybrid powertrain that guarantees over 500 miles of driving range in one charge. The Toyota Sienna has a 2.5 liter, four-cylinder engine and two electric motors which only produces 245 hp. Looking at the interior the Sienna will give you the feel of being in your living room as it is so large inside.  Although there is space, there are but few exciting new features. They have included heated second-row captain chard with built in ottomans that give a limo-like experience. There is no panoramic sunroof and the tiny windows will have 2nd and 3rd row seaters feeling a little claustrophobic. The infotainment system is also outdated and could use a technological upgrade.

The Versatility, Value & Protection Of The 2021 Toyota Sienna & 2021 Chrysler Pacifica 

Both of these minivans are equipped with a multitude of safety technologies that let customers drive with ease and confidence. The Toyota Sienna has ten airbags and two more in the second row than the Chrysler Pacifica. This places it first in the segment of airbag safety. Diving into the versatility, the Pacifica is claimed to have more because the second row of seats is removable unlike the Sienna which only folds in half (this is because the side seat airbags do not allow for easy removal or storage). It is not impossible to remove the seats of the Sienna, but is a difficult task and requires a bit of elbow grease.

The two minivans are similarly priced, but that does not mean they are of equal value. Both have their strengths and opportunities of improvement. However, when comparing the price, customers will receive more bang for buck when purchasing the Pacifica over the Sienna. The Sienna doesn’t have as luxurious material in the minivan. There’s also an additional cost for the rear seat entertainment, which is already included in the Pacifica. The more modern technology and family-friendly features is what seats apart the Pacifica from the Sienna in quality of purchase. 

Tough Question: Which Is The Better Minivan?

Now arises the difficult question of which minivan is the ultimate hybrid option available on the market now? Both offer great value to families, the Pacifica with its exceptional technology & versatility and the Sienna with its space. Both of these minivans are well positioned in the segment. Combining all of the elements: technology, comfort, and most importantly hybrid power, the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica takes first!

2022 is looking to be another year of change. The RAM brand is not going to be an exception. The 2022 RAM lineup is going to include luxury style heavy-duty trucks, highly versatile commercial vans, and even a truck as fast as a sports car. And that’s just the beginning! Changes are expected across the RAM lineup that we think you are going to enjoy. Here’s a small sneak peek into next year’s RAM’s. 

2022 RAM Promaster

Lots of changes are coming to the 2022 Promaster van including some major changes to it’s drivability. Changes begin with an upgrade to the transmission going from the 6-speed automatic to now a 9-speed automatic transmission. The steering rack has been changed as well, going from the previous hydraulic system to an adaptive electric steering rack. Even the parking brake has changed from a cable system to an electric actuation system.

RAM did not stop with making changes to the mechanical components of the Promaster van as they have made several changes to the interior components as well. Push button start and remote keyless entry are now standard. The infotainment screen has greatly increased too, going from the old 7-inch screen to a whopping 10-inch screen. Cool technology features like a wireless charging pad, a digital rearview mirror, Apple CarPlay, & Android Auto are also included. Oh yeah, ergonomic and comfort features have also been upgraded bringing more comfort to the driver. It’s almost like they built a brand new van.

RAM Promaster City

The 2022 Promaster City van is to receive a full technology upgrade resulting in this van giving you greater connectivity and safety. We see the dashboard layout being revised to allow for digital gauge cluster displays and a larger, touchscreen infotainment center. We expect to see more driver assist technologies added making it safer and easier to drive and access vehicle information. Other nice owner conveniences like, push button start, keyless entry, and a digital rearview mirror are also projected to be included on the 2022 RAM Promaster City van. Cargo space will remain excellent making this a great van to be driven in dense urban areas as well as for work purposes.

2022 RAM 1500

The biggest change coming to the RAM 1500 during 2022 will be the addition of several new editions and trim packages. For all of you off-road enthusiasts, you will now be able to add the BackCountry specification on the Lone Star and Big Horn trims. On the limited edition crew cab models, you will now be able to upgrade to the (RED) Edition. For those of you looking for performance over strength, you can now order the GT specification on the Rebel & Laramie trims. And finally, if it’s luxury you are looking for, RAM now offers the 10th Anniversary Edition on the limited trim which is full of interior luxury comforts.

2022 RAM TRX

For the RAM TRX, a new edition will be coming out called the Ignition Edition. The Ignition Edition will definitely stand out in a crowd with it’s orange paint and special decals. Useful hardware is also included. Things like a spray-in bedliner, tie downs, bed step, head-up display, panoramic sunroof, and pedestrian automatic emergency braking. And it comes with a 702-hp engine. This truck will definitely handle any sort of off-roading, towing, or hauling.

2022 RAM 2500 & 2022 RAM 3500

For those who need more truck than the 1500, the 2500 and 3500 RAM trucks have several equipment and packages. The RAM Power Wagon will now have optional full center console, premium leather seats, and an electric transfer case. Move up to the level 3 equipment package and your truck will come with a 17 speaker audio system, a 12-inch infotainment display, and black-out styling details.

  • For the 19th year in a row, Jeep has once again been named America’s “Most Patriotic Brand” by Brand Keys.
  • The President of Brand Keys believes that patriotism is the most powerful value a brand can hold, and Jeep shows it.
  • Find Jeep models for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

Every year, Brand Keys surveys American consumers about brands across all industries to see which brand consumers find the most patriotic. This year, nearly 6000 Americans participated in the survey. While there were several notable brands on the list like Walmart, Coca-Cola, Netflix, and Coors, Jeep edged them all out for the win.

From Jeep

Jim Morrison, the Vice President of the Jeep Brand, North America said “It was 80 years ago this year that the Jeep brand first forged its reputation of American might during World War II … The brand’s recognition as ‘America’s Most Patriotic Brand’ for the 19th consecutive year is both a testament to the Jeep community and to the people who since 1941 have dedicated themselves to building iconic SUVs known around the world for outdoor adventure, freedom and off-road capability.”

From Brand Keys

Robert Passikoff, the President of Brand Keys says, “’Patriotism’ is one of the most powerful values a brand can own, and the Jeep brand has led the brand patriotism-parade since the Most Patriotic Brand in America survey was created. A brand like Jeep that can literally own a value as strong as patriotism is able to emotionally differentiate themselves from the competition and engage customers. The Jeep brand track record proves that, and we are proud to congratulate them again this year for their extraordinary accomplishment.”

Special Edition Model

To honor our U.S. military members, the Jeep brand will be offering Special Edition Freedom Models across the 2021 model year lineup. These Freedom models will feature military-themed interior and exterior designs. Some examples include the large Oscar Mike military star decal on the hood, matte black/Satin Carbon wheels and accents and an American flag decal along the side of each Jeep vehicle. For the Wrangler and Gladiator models, an Oscar Mike decal on the rear tailgate will also be included. As part of its long-standing relationship with the United Service Organizations (USO), Jeep will make a $250 donation to the USO for every 2021 Freedom edition model sold.

Military Cash Bonus

In addition to the special edition Freedom models, all active and retired military service members qualify for a $500 Military Cash Bonus incentive that can be applied to all Jeep 4×4 models. Just one more way of showing support for our Armed Forces.

More New Models

The Jeep brand is preparing for the arrival of the all-new 2021 Grand Cherokee L and the all-new 2022 Grand Wagoneer. Both of these models will include the American flag on their flanks. The Grand Wagoneer will be shown off on the exterior of the company’s tower at their Auburn Hills, MI, facility. Additionally, customers looking for more can visit the Jeep Store by Amazon for patriotic merchandise.

  • The 2021 Dodge Challenger has carried over its iconic design, but has some major upgrades in performance and technology.
  • The price of a 2021 Dodge Challenger starts at $30,000 but can go up close to $90,000 depending on added features and preferences.
  • Find the 2021 Dodge Challenger for sale at Lawton Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram.

It’s been here for a long time, and it doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon either. The Dodge Challenger has been a long-time favorite for muscle car enthusiasts. That’s because it offers pure, raw performance with a classy box design and tight handling. Every year, Dodge has been slowly updating the Challenger with new safety & interior features to match the exceptional design of its long-time lovable engine performance. With upgraded safety features and an all-new widebody package to fit upgraded track-quality racing tires.

Same Engine, More Power

Be prepared for optimal performance numbers. Dodge ensures once again, that the Challenger is America’s top muscle car in the country. The base engine provides ample performance results with a 3.6-liter V6 in the SXT. The GT trim, however, produces 305 hp and 268 pound-feet of torque. Paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive as standard, expect to get from 0-60mph in less than 6.5 seconds. 

Dodge’s next line up is the 5.7-liter V8 found in the Challenger R/T, outputting a total of 372 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque with the standard eight-speed automatic. Horsepower & torque do go up by about 10 on both when choosing to invest in the 6-speed manual. The R/T Scat Pack model on the other hand, has a 6.4-liter V8, good for 485 hp and 475 lb-ft of torque regardless of whether you get the automatic or manual, which is great for those who want solid numbers and prefer an automatic. 

Moving onto the big boys is Dodge’s Hellcat model, which gets a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, spitting out an absurd 717 hp and 656 lb-ft of torque. It can also be paired with the automatic or manual transmission. Finally we have the Hellcat Redeye, which is honestly nothing but a lower-spec version of Dodge’s limited Demon. The Hellcat engine produces 797 hp and 707 lb-ft of torque with 0-60 time clocking in at around 3.4 seconds! 

Old Yet Lovable Interior Design Features

Maintaining its name in the classy interior design market, Dodge did a phenomenal job in the design. They utilized houndstooth cloth and two-tone leather stitching with bucket seat implementations for a smooth and luxurious driving experience. Quite frankly, what the Challenger lacks in new, exciting features, it makes up for in pure interior spacing and technology. A 7-inch touchscreen with Apple Carplay & Android Auto compatibility comes as a standard for all models, however, an optional 8.4-inch version is available as an option for each and every trim in case you have preferences in what you need or want. This is interesting considering the Challenger’s competitors, like the Camaro & Mustang, fail to offer Carplay & Android integration with a 9 to 19 speaker audio system. 

For a muscle-car coupe, the Challenger is absolutely huge compared to its competition. With a nearly 9 inch longer length than a Camaro or Mustang, 3-4 inches taller, and a 6-9 inch longer wheelbase. Even the most basic Challenger trim model weighs 400 pounds more than a V6 Camaro. Thanks to its 16.2 cubic foot trunk size and back seats, the Challenger is a better choice compared to the Camaro or Mustang. 

On-Road Safety & Fuel Economy

The gas mileage might not be as much as what’s in a Prius, but what can you expect from an all-American muscle designed to go fast? And while it may not be optimal numbers, the Challenger still does fairly well when considering the number of engine updates and design changes that have been integrated. Fuel economy for the base models clocks in at around 19 mpg city, 30 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined. For those who want the AWD setup, you can expect to get around 18 in the city, 27 on the highway, and 21 total combined. 

Owning a muscle car doesn’t mean you have to compromise on safety. And Dodge proves this by employing a list of new safety features ready for any situation on the road. Rearview parking cameras, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beams, and full-speed collision warnings have all been added/improved, making the interior a top contender for safety technology in the muscle car market.  Thanks to its front and rear crumble spots, various multi-stage airbags, and a solid frame, the Challenger also does very well in crash situations as well. 

Flexible Pricing Points & Trims

Pricing for Dodge’s 2021 Challenger starts at $30,365, going up from there as you choose more expensive models or add premium vehicle inclusions. There are so many models and options available on the 2021 Dodge Challenger that we won’t even try to list them all off one at a time. Instead, we’ve provided a helpful list of the important starting prices below for your convenience:

Standard Trims

SXT: $30,365

GT: $33,365

All-wheel drive can be added to both of these trims for only $3,000

Mid-Level R/T Trims

R/T: $37,065

Scat Pack: $42,140

Scat Pack Widebody: $47,810

Widebody: $68,440

Redeye: $74,040

Our Final Thought

Yes, it may not offer the best fuel economy in the world, but the 2021 Dodge Challenger still offers top-notch racing performance and advanced safety features that make the feel as premium as it looks. And with a starting price point of $31,000, it’s a perfect choice for those who want a classy sports car with all the new features packed in.
