Dealer matched the wholsale price from Car Cost Canada and with all taxes and fees I got it for $29,233.00 Canadian.

Good enough of a price for me. Got the Jeep green with slate grey interior. Now I have to wait my 6 weeks!

Sounds like a fantastic deal!

Congratulation.But have you actualy seen those "all season mats.The dealer just said tome that he included them in the package and so I asked him if I could see them.He showed them to me and I immidiately cancelled the order for the useless mats.I think I can pick up way much better mats that offer definitely more protection in Canadian Tire or Walmart.What I ordered though is the side door molding which will protect the door.It comes as a standart with the LTD. but not the North.It just glues on the surface into the door groove and will save your door from many potentional dents.
And yes one more think.You want your new Jeep to look COOL.Install extra driving lights on the front bumper.Get nice Hella lights and you will see the immidiate transformation of the front look.I think the Patriot has slightly dull frontal look and the lights improve the Jeep off road reputation plus they are very usuful when driving on out of town roads.

if you check this website you can see what I'm talking about.Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I can always pick up some mats afterwards if those suck.

Does the molding come already painted? I actually prefer the vehicle without them. More utlitarian looking. But you are right, people in parking lots pay no attention to other cars.
