The Chrysler 300 is a popular full-size luxury sedan with sporty features. Two primary performance features include responsive handling and an advanced all-wheel drive system (AWD). You'll feel more in control while driving this vehicle on the streets of Athens, AL and beyond.

Featuring electric power steering, the Chrysler 300 delivers responsive handling. This type of steering makes exact tuning adjustments as you drive. Whether you're in low speed situations like parking or high speed situations on the highway, the car adjusts appropriately for responsive handling. 

When pickup truck drivers hear the name Ram they instantly recognize it as being one of the very best on the market. The Ram 1500 Big Horn is offered in 5 configurations in 4x2 and 5 in 4x4. It also has a 5 year/60,000-mile limited gas powertrain warranty and a 5 year/100,000-mile limited diesel powertrain warranty.

The Ram 1500 Big Horn also enjoys some of the best performance numbers in the business, including:

• 395 max gas horsepower
• 420-foot pounds max diesel torque
• 10,620 max gas towing
• 1,880 max gas payload

Ponies were used to lift the coal, and he was looking for a way to explain the power of the animal. He discovered in one minute; most ponies could accomplish 22,000 pounds of work.

 

At Champion Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM, we offer a wide selection of cars to try to match different people's needs. Part of this includes having models with all- or four-wheel drive systems. Both systems work well for most people, but knowing the difference between both can help guide you to choose a car that can be the most beneficial for you.

Most cars and crossovers use the all-wheel drive. Trucks, SUVs, larger/heavier vehicles tend to use the four-wheel drive system. This is because...

Let's be honest, long road trips aren't easy especially if it's a family one. While things aren't as bad as they used to be for kids, the portable gaming systems of today can still run out of power and there's only so much reading someone can do in one sitting. It's still something of a bad situation. And that's where the Chrysler Pacifica's Uconnect system comes into play.

This built-in entertainment center comes equipped with two large touch screens, entertaining apps, Blu-ray player, and that's just the tip of the iceberg…

If you are looking for a new vehicle for your family, you will want to consider the value that an SUV brings to the table. As opposed to a pickup truck that can be rather limiting in terms of passenger space, the SUV provides ample room for everyone to sit comfortably. Beyond that, there is plenty of cargo space in the rear to lug around the family groceries, ski gear, or whatever else you have planned for an exciting weekend excursion.

The upcoming 2018 Dodge Durango SRT has a nearly identical powertrain to the current 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT. They both have an eight-speed automatic transmission mated to a 475-horsepower HEMI V8, identical axle ring gear diameters, and identical axle ratios.

We've been bragging about the Chrysler Pacifica minivan since it made its mark on the blacktop last year, and it was recently named the "Best Minivan" on Parents Magazine and Edmunds List of "10 Best Family Cars of 2017".
