October 22, 2024 , Auburn Hills, Mich. – A pair of pickup trucks from the Stellantis North America family are hauling away hardware from the Cars.com annual Top Pick Pickup Truck awards.
A leading online automotive resource for information and vehicle shopping, Cars.com named the 2025 Jeep® Gladiator the Top Pick, Off-Road Mid-Size Pickup Truck, and, for a second year in a row, 2025 Ram 1500 as Top Pick, Family Pickup Truck. Earlier this year, Jeep Wrangler was also named Best SUV of 2024 by the website’s expert editorial team.
Jeep Gladiator is engineered from the ground up to be the most off-road capable Jeep truck ever, building on a rich heritage of tough, dependable Jeep pickup trucks with an unmatched combination of rugged utility, authentic Jeep design, open-air freedom, clever functionality and versatility.
Said Mike Hanley, Cars.com senior road test editor: “The Jeep Gladiator brings the impressive off-road capability of the brand’s Wrangler SUV to the midsize pickup class. With a Mojave version that’s designed to go fast on desert trails and a Rubicon model made for rock crawling, you can get far off the beaten path in a Gladiator, and with the pickup’s removable roof and doors you can get closer than ever to the outdoors. It’s these attributes and more that make this Jeep our Top Pick among off-road midsize trucks.”
The 2025 Ram 1500 redefines the full-size pickup truck segment with new levels of powerful and efficient performance, cutting-edge technology, and luxurious interiors. Featuring the new Hurricane inline-six engine lineup, it caters to both hardworking customers and families, setting a new standard in the industry.
“High-end versions of the Ram 1500 were already the most luxurious full-size pickup trucks you could buy, and Ram has upped the ante again with the new 2025 Ram 1500 Tungsten, which includes a mix of rich materials and trim detailing rarely seen in this class,” said Hanley. “The redesigned Ram 1500 is also our Top Pick for families thanks to its spacious crew cab, clever storage areas and available air suspension that can lower the truck to make entry and exit easier for kids.”
