#38 of 97 Patriot by werm9 Apr 16, 2006 (5:53 am)
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”?

Replying to: jkinzel (Apr 16, 2006 7:48 pm) A diesel will be sold in other markets.   Bob Replies to this message: gljvd (Apr 17, 2006 7:21 pm) jkinzel (Apr 17, 2006 8:36 pm)
#42 of 97 World Engine by claudius753 Apr 17, 2006 (10:14 am)
The world engine is not an engine but rather a group of engines. Daimler Chrysler, Mitsubishi, and Hyundai created a spin-off company that would design a new family of 4 cylinder engines, and produce them but only for sale to the 3 companies. This new company is called GEMA or Global Engine Manufacturing Alliance.   They ended up with a 1.8, 2.0, and 2.4 liter engine, that each company can alter a bit to better distinguish the attributes they want in the engine, such as VVT tuning. The Dodge Caliber makes use of all 3 engines, while the Patriot is using only the 2.4. The 1.8 that Dodge uses creates an impressive 148 horsepower.

Replying to: rsholland (Apr 17, 2006 4:46 am) yea that doesn't help me here with gas at 3$ a gallon and rising though.   Would love to have seen a diesel engine for this here in the states and with the changes next year to diesel they should be putting rushing ot put out diesel here. It would sell like mad

Replying to: rsholland (Apr 17, 2006 4:46 am) Thnaks Bob and claudius753. It is truly pathetic that we in the US have legislated our selves into a position that does not allow us to take advantage of the more fuel efficient diesels every other country can use. Maybe in 2008 a new batch of diesels will appear.   Thanks again for the information

#46 of 97 Sun Roof? by stumpf2000 Apr 28, 2006 (2:04 pm)
Anyone know if it will have a sun roof? I have an 03 GC laredo and love it, but would not mind something new and easier on gas... Will I be trading down? I hate not having a warrenty. I cant wait to test drive! Replies to this message: shado4 (Apr 29, 2006 5:24 am)

Replying to: stumpf2000 (Apr 28, 2006 2:04 pm) Yes, according to preliminary specs the Patriot Limited will be available with a power sunroof.
