Jeep Patriot

Post by shane_c »

I saw one of these around and really liked it. The price seems very reasonable also. Anybody out there own or driven one?

Same thing as a Dodge Nitro, starts at around $14,995. Same exact car as the Compass pretty much, engine/frame/etc. Just boxier and taller. More SUV like than CUV like the Compass is. Someone on here has a Compass as well.

I can't stand the look of the Compass but like the boxier styling of the Nitro and Patriot. If we end up moving to Canada's north I might look at trading in the Vibe for something with 4x4.

Well the Patriot and Compass are not off roading vehicles. Their systems are for on-road hazards, similar to the Trix/Vibe.If your looking for a more rugged off road type then look at the Liberty. My gf has an 05 renegade and we love it.

I have a Compass and really like it. Possibly I will look at the Patriot when the Compass lease is done. The issue would be could I still get all three cars in my two car garage since the Patriot is a little longer then the Compass.
