Replying to: twain (Apr 09, 2006 8:48 pm) Even if you have to take the auto to get the off-road package, patriot still offers a lot more options combinations than Escape. I can see the Patriot making some serious incursions into Ford Escape sales...
#32 of 97 Patriot? Freedom Drive? by corvette Apr 13, 2006 (6:24 am)
These names are just ridiculous... I know we used the Patriot in the first Iraq war, and Freedom Drive sounds suspiciously like Freedom Fries. Am I alone in thinking that the Jeep division of DaimlerChrysler is tyring to play on jingoism until their buyers wake up and realize they were bought by a German company in 1998?   And, yes, it doesn't make sense to me for Jeep to have both the Patriot and Compass in their lineup. They're really diluting their brand by having too many models.   Commander - a cheaper, larger, uglier, GC; the answer to the question no one was asking GC - midsize truck-based SUV Liberty - small truck-based SUV Wrangler Unlimited - small truck-based SUV Wrangler - very small truck-based SUV Compass - small car-based SUV Patriot - small car-based SUV   The Commander should have been an extended GC. The Wrangler Unlimited should be offered with a full hardtop and replace the Liberty. Either the Compass or Patriot could have been added, but not both!
#33 of 97 Patriot HHR by twain Apr 13, 2006 (8:28 pm)
While looking at a Patriot pic from a 3/4 rear view, I thought "It's an HHR!" The Patriot is very similar to the Chevy HHR, only it's a squared off Jeep design while the HHR is curvy retro. They're about the same size, they have about the same engine (the 2.4) and they're both car based (Caliber and Cobalt.)   Very similar vehicles. Except the Patriot will have an offroad option so the Jeep purists don't blow a gasket.

#36 of 97 Edmunds Reviews heading downhill??? by ergo Apr 15, 2006 (9:47 pm)
Well after reading Edmund's review, I can't help but wonder if they even drove it. It doesn't sound like it. Judgement from the autoshow floor?   So, they pick on Jeep's for being trucky and now that they make a road going friendly smaller one, they pick on it for NOT being a truck?   Maybe we can get more info on what the vehicles ARE vs. someone telling us what pre-conceived notions they are NOT. Hey, it'd be a step in the right direction!

Replying to: twain (Apr 15, 2006 9:27 pm) Same . I love my 94 jeep cherokee but sadly its on its last legs and with gass inching up to 3$ a diesel would be awosome . 35mpg highway would save me alot of money a year . Next sunday I'm heading to the show myself , I really wish this was avalible in the summer though.

I was looking to purchase a compass around fall because I knew it was going into production and I stumbled across the patriot; but I am still confused. Is this a concept or is this also going into production? When is it coming out? Replies to this message: shado4 (Apr 16, 2006 6:00 am)

Replying to: werm9 (Apr 16, 2006 5:53 am) The Patriot is going into production and will be available this fall. Go to Jeep Patriot for all the details.

Replying to: twain (Apr 15, 2006 9:27 pm) The Patriot looks like the right size for me, however if they don’t put a diesel in it, it’s of no value. And if they do put a diesel in it, it will probably be a 4X4 option only. No sale.   What is the “World Engine”?
