Greetings Everyone,
This is my first post at JeepPatriot.com.
I live in Edmonton, Alberta, (Canada) and currently drive a 93 Jeep Cherokee.
Slowly the paint is disapearing and when I return an occasional rental car, I am finding more and more that I am missing the advantages of a modern vehicle.
So I plan to take the Patriot for 1 test drive and then purchase.
I will be going for the Limited with CVT with everything except the navigation system.
Attractions are initial cost, low mileage for an SUV, 4 wheel drive, storage capacity (for camping and golfing gear), safety rating (side airbags),...

I have found JeepPatriot.com really useful for answering most of my questions but here is one that I have not seen covered:

Does anyone have experience purchasing with CarCostCanada.com?
This will be my first time buying a new vehicle and I am wondering if the paperwork from CarCostCanada will actually help with a purchase of a 2008 vehicle.

thanks

I used CarCostCanada and was able to get $1000 off my 2007 Patriot North 4x2. But I have heard that it is very hard to get dealers out west to go below MSRP.

Ronald I sent you a PM regarding some Edmonton info.

Howdy, nice to see another fellow Edmontonian on the site. We, too live in Edmonton, and just purchased a Stone White Limited Patriot FDII Trail Rated with everything other than the Nav system (see my signature).
I was able to get the salesperson down $3k for our vehicle. There are some deals to be had unlike what people tell you... that they do not move from the sticker price. I have a recommendations of where to go with some names, and WHERE NOT TO GO. We have had such a tough time getting our vehicle... seriously, not funny! I was this close to packing it all in and getting a Ford Escape. I swear my hubbie says that everytime we discussed the Jeep Patriot, he got a grey hair.
You'll find that many dealers do not know much about the Jeep Patriot b/c it is so new and there aren't many around. Southtown Dodge Chrysler Jeep on 66 st just off the Whitemud is supposed to getting a LTD. Green Trail Rated that was supposed to be in July 23. If you are interested, talk to Evan Manning. He'll give a good price.
