October 4, 2022 , Windsor, Ontario – The Jeep® and Dodge brands have both been announced as winners in the fifth annual Vincentric Best Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Value in Canada Awards.

For the first time, Jeep Gladiator has won the Small-Mid-size Pickup segment Vincentric award. Engineered from the ground up to be the most off-road capable Jeep truck ever, Gladiator builds on a rich heritage of tough, dependable trucks with an unmatched combination of rugged utility, authentic Jeep design, open-air freedom, clever functionality and versatility.
