Ok, its official. I now own a gorgeous 4X4 Green Patriot with the Tan interior! Its fully loaded, and I have to go back to get the i pod adapter installed as soon as the part gets in. I was looking for a black 4X2 with gray int, called a dealer and he called around there weren't any in town so he said we have a green one with gray so off we go to see it. Get there, it was sold and not updated in the computer they did have a 4X4 green with tan and we snatched it up. I really liked the green, but to pay more for the paint is crazy. We ended up getting a 4X4 auto fully loaded limited, i pod adapter, two extra keys, extended warranty, oil changes for 4 years in the deal. I wasn't sure how I liked the tan interior but now that the green has sunk in I think its the better choice for the car. What does everyone else have and what got added in to sweeten the pot for you guys? My daughter said she loved the new patriot, even hugged it but wasnt so keen on the color. Her first choice was pink. Shes 4.

It could go either way I have only seen 3 patriots in person. Two whites and our green. They had the green that was gray, mine is tan. The whites both had tan one sport and one limited. They only offer the colors with colors they think look good. You don't have the option for for a certain int when its not going to compliment the ext. I personaly like both but I think the tan suits the green a little bit better, but thats just personal taste they both look great.

Here are two pics

I noticed on the pic of the sunroof that the ridges on the roof stop at about the end of the roof rails. On my patriot (no sunroof) the ridges extend almost to the windshield.
I wonder how that would affect an after-market sunroof install...

I think there was a similar question in the sunroof topic.

That looks really sweet! Does the sunroof have a cover of some sorts so you can block the sun from beating on your head if you want?

Yes. Very smooth 1 touch to open, tilt, close, or hold to open partially. Very little wind noise.

Well, I've seen a pink hummer so there is the possibility it might still be seen.

Gross, who paints a hummer pink? Its one thing to find an old t-bird pink and white but a hummer? Today we seen a pepto pink mustang and it looked horrible! If mine ever needs new paint my husband wants it longhorn orange. I told him when pigs fly. It does look good on some trucks, but I just couldnt picture mine burnt orange.

I saw a Lavender Cherokee about 8 years ago. It was a person making a statement based on the bumper stickers.

Thankfully Kaiser Jeep did not produce too many surreys. The one dougep linked to is the first picture of a real one. Thank you for the information.
