can i suggest that somehow in the signup proccess that people need to put what model etc of patriot if they have one, it helps when some post questions about this and that and we have to extract what vehicle they have before answers can be made;)

Yea good point !! I also asked could people fill in their profile properly so we know where they live....no point in replying to a guy about a patriot in Canada --when he comes back that he drives a Camel Dung powered patriot & he lives in Hong Kong!!!

Very good points. Hard to help people out when you don't know if they have an '07-08 or an '09 Patriot... 4x2 or a 4x4, or where they live (to account for weather conditions or specific laws to their area - already had one person ask me about winter tires and I am not very good with winter tires...). Also... state if you have a gas or a diesel model as well. Something as trivial as an oil change is very different between the two as we have seen already on one thread.

Actually no we don't. We have street tires and we have Piņa Colada or Mojito tires. :p
