Stivers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram
Stivers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram sits at 2209 Cobbs Ford Rd in Prattville, about an hour from Auburn. It’s almost all interstate: I-85 South to Montgomery, I-65 North to Exit 179, then Cobbs Ford Road. That hour gets you a full CDJR showroom, commercial trucks and vans, and a full service department.
A big reason to make the drive is how you’re treated once you get here. Stivers holds a 4.6-star rating from more than 1,200 Google reviews, and the comments keep coming back to courteous staff and a smooth car-buying experience. The finance team works out financing or lease plans that fit your budget, and the service technicians take care of everything from oil changes to drivetrain repairs long after you’ve driven home.
Auburn isn’t the only place drivers make this trip from. People come in from Opelika and Tuskegee on I-85, Clanton and Birmingham on I-65, Selma on AL-14, Troy on US-231 and Lake Martin to the northeast. You’ll find each route below with its distance, drive time and a Get Directions button that opens it in Google Maps on your phone.
An hour’s drive goes further when the paperwork’s already moving, and you’ve got two online tools that’ll handle the biggest steps from home. Get prequalified first, so you’ll know your financing range before you pick a vehicle. Then value your trade in two steps, using the same market data the dealership looks at, and you’ll arrive in Prattville with a number in hand. Bring the title or payoff information, your registration and every key, and you’ll find the team can wrap up the appraisal once you’re here.

Opelika’s right on I-85, nine miles up the road from Auburn. The fastest route is about 71 miles and 1 hour 7 minutes: I-85 South through Auburn, Tuskegee and Montgomery, then I-65 North to Exit 179 and Cobbs Ford Road. US-29 South is an alternate at around 1 hour 14 minutes.
Opelika and Auburn share more than a highway, and if you’ve got a full house you’ll need room for everyone. If you’re comparing a Jeep Grand Cherokee L with a Dodge Durango, it’s worth seeing both third rows in person before you decide which one fits your crew.
Tuskegee’s the closest stop on the I-85 corridor: about 47.5 miles and 48 minutes. You’re on the interstate within minutes, and then it’s I-85 South into Montgomery, I-65 North to Exit 179 and Cobbs Ford Road. U.S. 80 West is an alternate at about 52 minutes.
At under 50 minutes, Tuskegee’s close enough that coming back for maintenance isn’t a chore. The service department handles routine work like oil changes as well as bigger repairs, and you can schedule service online.
From Tallassee, the fastest drive is about 43 miles and 43 minutes by heading down to I-85 South and up I-65 North to Exit 179. The back roads are shorter on the map, about 36 miles on Redland Road or 37.5 miles on AL-14 West, but Google Maps puts both closer to 50 minutes.
Out here, you’ll usually want a truck that works during the week and tows on Saturday. The Ram 1500 covers both, and you can compare trims back to back once you’re on the lot.
Dadeville’s the longest drive on the east side, about 71 miles and 1 hour 20 minutes. You’ll take AL-49 South to I-85 South, then I-65 North to Exit 179. Two lake routes, AL-63 South with AL-14 West or AL-50 West, run 60 to 64 miles but take about 1 hour 23 minutes.
If your weekends start at Lake Martin, the boat and the trailer usually decide the truck, so don’t size it by looks alone. Look at the Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 for the heavier loads, or a Jeep Wrangler for the lake roads and the dock.
Clanton’s a straight shot: about 32.5 miles and 32 minutes down I-65 South to Exit 179 for Cobbs Ford Road. It’s one of the quickest trips here, so you’re able to head down after work and still have time for a test drive.
Chilton County runs on farms and small businesses, and the commercial inventory has Ram heavy-duty trucks, chassis cabs and ProMaster vans. Stivers also offers commercial financing, so you don’t need two separate trips for the work vehicle and the loan.
From Birmingham, plan on about 84 miles and 1 hour 19 minutes. It’s I-65 South nearly the whole way, past Pelham, Alabaster and Clanton, to Exit 179 and Cobbs Ford Road. US-280 East and US-31 South are alternates that add about five minutes.
When the drive’s this long, it’s smart to do the homework first. You’ll want to browse new and used inventory online, value your trade and apply for financing before you leave, so the visit’s about the test drive and the signature.
Selma’s the one route that comes in from the west. It’s about 40 miles and 53 minutes on AL-14 East, through Autaugaville and straight into Prattville, with no interstate needed.
If you’re shopping on a budget, you’ll want to start with the used inventory, which includes certified pre-owned vehicles and a section priced under $20K. If you’d rather go new, don’t skip the Dodge Hornet and Jeep Compass.
From Greenville, it’s about 52.7 miles and 50 minutes north on I-65, through Montgomery to Exit 179. Turn left onto Cobbs Ford Road and Stivers is on your left after about 0.8 miles. US-31 North is an alternate at around 53 minutes.
If your family logs a lot of highway miles, the Chrysler Pacifica’s the one to test. Bring the car seats and check the fit before you sign anything. It’s worth the extra ten minutes.
Troy’s the southeast route: about 60.5 miles and 1 hour 8 minutes on US-231 North into Montgomery, then I-65 North to Exit 179. A version that picks up I-85 South takes about the same time.
For Troy University students and staff, the first step’s often the loan. Get prequalified to see where you stand, then you’ll be ready to look at the used vehicles priced under $20K or a new Jeep Compass.
You don’t have to do it all at the dealership. Here’s the order that saves the most time:
The dealership is about 64 miles from downtown Auburn, roughly an hour in usual traffic. The fastest route takes I-85 South to Montgomery and I-65 North to Exit 179, then Cobbs Ford Road. From Tuskegee it's under 50 minutes, and from Clanton about half an hour.
