#1 of 45 Prices paid and buying experience by dmac86 Jan 05, 2008 (11:50 am)
Any deals on an 08 Patriot? I'm considering buying soon. Replies to this message: saabski (Jan 16, 2008 3:22 pm) nosirrahg (Jan 30, 2008 10:22 pm) rd502 (Feb 11, 2008 7:27 pm) bankerrob (Feb 20, 2008 1:59 pm) aaron_t (Mar 04, 2008 4:22 am) mick2001 (Mar 18, 2008 3:33 am)

Replying to: dmac86 (Jan 05, 2008 11:50 am) There's $500 Cash allowance, or 5.9% for 60 months available for '08 Patriot. I'd say go with the $500 allowance, and the dealer could discount you another $500 off MSRP. I bought my 2007 Patriot with about $1,300 off the MSRP (including $500 cash allowance at the time) in September of 2007. Patriot is a good seller for Jeep, so discounts aren't as big for them as the other gas-guzzling SUVs in their lineup. I really doubt that Jeep will pour more incentives into this car, as gas price surges past $3.80 per gallon in some areas.   I love my Patriot. 5,000 miles so far, and no problems what so ever. Getting 23 to 24 MPG mostly city driving (it's a CVT).   Good luck. Replies to this message: nosirrahg (Jan 30, 2008 10:22 pm) rd502 (Feb 11, 2008 7:27 pm)

Replying to: saabski (Jan 16, 2008 3:22 pm) It's also been announced that Jeep is addressing the perceived low-rent interior of the Patriot in 2009 with a revamped interior. I don't know how much better it will be, but you could use that info as a bargaining chip on a 2008. You can also get some good deals on remaining 2007 models, but choices are limited (and often Limiteds!), and there's the whole stigma of buying a first-year vehicle.   I bought an '08 2WD Sport CVT in late November 2007, and so far I'm happy (but then again, I was looking for a fuel-efficient, versatile vehicle to go with my wife's sedan, and not a rock crawler). I'm a little annoyed at the interior upgrade announcement, but will have to wait and see how substantial a change it brings. Replies to this message: rd502 (Feb 11, 2008 7:27 pm)

Replying to: nosirrahg (Jan 30, 2008 10:22 pm) I'm looking at an '08 Patriot Limited/4WD/CVT. Sticker is $23,800. According to Edmunds, should be able to negotiate $1,000 off sticker plus $500 incentive cash for about $22,200. What have other's experience been negotiating off sticker?   This would be a lease if I bought it and I'm pretty sure this dealership uses Chrysler Financial. Does anyone know their money factors and residuals for a 36, 39 and 48 month lease at 15k miles year? Based on the Jeep website it looks like it's cheaper to do a 36 month lease than a 48, so I want to check all 3. I know Chryseler Financial has some ridiculous acquisition fee ($500? $700?). What are their other terms? If their lease terms aren't favorable, I can probably buy a Honda CRV EX with extended warranty cheaper than this per month.

Replying to: bankerrob (Feb 20, 2008 1:59 pm) There is an additional $2000 in marketing supprot on certain 2008 Patriots, based on VIn. I haven't yet figured out what the criteria is for getting that, but my guess is build date (older = more cash). Replies to this message: mick2001 (Mar 18, 2008 3:33 am)

#8 of 45 2007 vs 2008 Jeep Patriot by joep5 Mar 31, 2008 (9:39 pm)
Does anyone have any thoughts on what has a chance for a better deal between a leftover (new) 2007 or a 2008 Patriot (both comparably equipped)? I am seeking the lowest possible price. Should I be able to do better on the 2007? And is below invoice a reasonable price? I may have a chance for a Friend/Family Employee Code, would that help for either? Thanks!

Replying to: joep5 (Mar 31, 2008 9:39 pm) Hey Joep5 I sell Jeeps for a living. The lowest price possible is not always the best price. To Answer your question, if the dealer is going to give you invoice (what they paid for the car) that is the lowest price. But let me ask you a question when you buy this car and you have a question about something on your car or you need help with something who are you going to call ( your salesman). Why are you trying to steal from him or her. If the lowest price is 1,000 less that then best price with the best service. Then why would you not pay twenty dollars extra a month for someone to take care of you anytime you have any problems. To be blunt if you can't afford an extra 1,000 or 20 dollars a month you should not buy a car. Have you ever heard you get what you pay for. Buying a car is a big investment not to have anyone to rely on if something goes wrong. In short Pay your salesman if there is worth it don't cry over 1,000 dollars when have a good salesman is worth much more.

Replying to: jmorrow (Apr 01, 2008 7:56 am) A couple points:   No one calls salespeople for service work. After the purchase, the salesperson is rarely involved.   Invoice price is not what a dealer pays for a vehicle.
