Yeah we pick it up tomorrow - finally. We ordered it on August 2nd and the dealer got it 2 weeks ago but we just hadn't had any time to pick it up yet.
 
Yep. Went for the Compass over the Patriot. I liked both but the Compass was a better match for my tastes and the dealer had exactly what I wanted in the show room.
 
One new Compass owner here. Two reasons: 1. Of the Caliber/Compass/Patriot trio only the Compass hatch opens high enough that I do not hit my head. 2. Almost $6,400 off the sticker- $23,400 on the sticker, paid $16,988:D.
 
07 jeep compass sport 26E package, lifted sittin on 235/65/17. why the sister mk owners hate on a subforum for compass?? do they not realize that the only thing different is sheetmetal?
 
Compass; a Jeep ?

I owned a Jeep Compass 4x4 Sport for 5 months and 11,000 miles. So I was a Compass owner. The engine was GUTLESS:dead_horse: Not to mention the lousey gas mileage:puke: The cheap plastic interior and sharp edges, and poor fit and finish installed by fine craftsmen and women:itchy-scratchy:
I traded it in on a Chrysler Pacifica Touring AWD that gets an honest 22 to 25 mpg and rides so nice:Racing:
The Compass is no JEEP it's a Caliber in more expensive add ons:smiley_thumbs_up: But after this year the Compass might just be a collectors car....Jeep?:BLAM:

Thanks for allowing me to spout off about my huge loss from $23,750. to $15,900 in trade in:eek:wned:eek:ne and glad I don't now!

Welcome, farout! I've read your compliants @ Edmunds TH, too. Sorry to hear of your problems. It obviously wasn't a good fit for you. Looks liek you made out pretty well with the trade value, though. I paid $15.5k for a $22.7k new 2007 Compass, so trade value would be even lower now!

I had a 2004 Pacifica about the same amount of time you had your Compass, 5mo & 12k miles. We enjoyed it and would have no problems buying another one, especially with the 4.0L/6-spd. We usually got 20-21mpg, up to 22 @ 80+mph highway speeds. Very comfortable cruiser. We've got a minivan, so cheap commuter was better for me. Jeep or not, a $16k vehicle with the equipment I got (Limited 4x4), the right size, and hopefulyl mid 20's mpg, i couldn't pass up. Plus, I got the 5-speed of which I've read no complaints. I wouldn't touch a CVT MK, though.
 
Your are on track when you say the CVT is a huge difference from the 5 speed stick:banana: The mismatch of any vehicle I have ever driven is the 2.4L with the CVT:dead_horse: Enough of my silly junk.:notworthy:
What amazes me is how the PAC gets such great mpg and weighs over 4500 lbs:smiley_thumbs_up: I do know that you got better mpg then most with the 4 speed auto. I think the 4. L and 6 speed are well designed and was a trail to see how it did before putting the same combination in the new vans.:smiley_thumbs_up: Thanks for taking my foolin around as a silly joke!:beerchug:
 
hey, look at those figures!!!

the Compasses are catching the Patriots!! we've GAINED 2-3 members and are now at FIFTEEN!!! YEA!!!!!

so, i think this warrants me to say......THE COMPASSES ARE COMING, THE COMPASSES ARE COMING!!!!:banana:
