color question

tlmatiko · Feb 4, 2010

hello...

I was wondering if the neutral green and the silver and the new blue Patriot owners post pictures of there Patriot. Im between the three colors and cant decide. At the dealer close to me they have the Silver Patriot in-stock but not the green or blue. I have to order my Patriot anyways since they dont have one with in 500 miles of what i want. But i want to make sure i like the color.

thanks theresa :beerchug:

I love my Silver Riot...shines so purdy when it's all washed and waxed, and hides minor dirt when it's not.

The Silver would be the cleanest look, especially if they use road salt where you are IMHO. Darker colors tend to look great when clean, but seem to look dirty quicker.

I always thought that the Jeep web page had an area where you could "build your own" including the color? I remember doing that before I ordered mine.

they do but idk it seems sometimes the colors are a bit off on the website.

Here are some pics that should help you out:

Though you will need to ignore the Steel Blue Patriots on page 2. We have "limited edition color" Patriots (i.e. they discontinued our beautiful color

)

Whats wrong with black? My black Patriot is sexy! just look. Once you black...you spend alot of time at the car wash.

I like my silver pat, but when I went to the dealership for the correct touch up paint to fix some chips, the silver I got was a little darker then whats on the Pat....no biggie I guess...better than a chip mark...

The best color to cover up dirt would be the light sandstone. It isn't the prettiest color of the lot but I can go a month or more without washing it and the dirt is hardly noticeable. I am a Jeep green, white or silver fan but i decided for this color just for the laziness factor in me.

i'm right there with you amigo ,car washing is not my cup of tea.

i've got the sandstone as well and love that it hides all the dirt. Wasn't my first (or second, or third) choice in color, but it was my only as cash for clunkers was ending that weekend and there wasn't a patriot within 400 miles of me other than the sandstone...

I have the silver and it does hide the dirt very well. However, I think I would choose either Green or Black if I were to choose all over again.

tlmatiko · Feb 5, 2010

Yeah.. Im 90% im going with the Green. Im going back to the dealer on Thursday to order my Patriot!!! :smiley_thumbs_up:

pictures would still be nice if you guys/girls wouldn't mind

heres my Jeep Green...

tlmatiko · Feb 5, 2010

jcollins1888... NICE! what did you just tint the lights?

jcollins1888 · Feb 5, 2010

tinted tails, lowered with H&R Lowering spring, 18inch Enkies, plan to tint/smoke the front markers this summer... As far as the tails im not sure I took it to a shop and im pretty sure its tint, i know its not knightshade or anything if thats what you meant

robi454 · Feb 5, 2010

I like those wheels, they look mean. I don't want to buy new wheels but if i did i would get those they look hot.

jcollins1888 · Feb 5, 2010

thanks...i was thinkin about orderin a set of SRT Replicas either Caliber or Charger rims but i think im going to just stick with these lol

tlmatiko · Feb 5, 2010

jcollins1888... yeah no i was just asking about the tint. they don't sell the dark tails on eBay yet so I was just wondering. I like your jeep... but I'm guessing its fwd?

thats why i like the green, because I think it looks amazing with the dark lights and black rims.
