I love my Jeep Patriot. It is great on gas and drives really good. As with any sport utility Jeep, my only complaint is the trunk space. With 2 kids and a big dog, this car is just too small for our Vancouver road trips. If I could afford to maintain 2 vehicles I would not be selling this one. I purchased it new right off the lot and I have never regret it. Also, if you like tailgating, the hatch (back door) when open, has drop down speakers and a great sound system! Also comes with a built in flashlight.
