The wife and I are seriously looking at this http://www.dennisdillonchryslerjeep...erjeepdodge.com/new/Jeep/2013-Jeep-Patriot-ac0e0fcb0a0a00e0011e826faa969890.htm

She really likes it... So do I. It'll be a family commuter car. 1 going on 2 kids in a less than a year. We test drive one today and was rather impressed with the space for it being a smallish SUV.

Watcha think about this load out and price? Has pretty much everything we want and fdII. We've got an email into the dealer about best price so we shall see what they say.

If you end up getting it, you'll be the first one with Oscar Mike edition. The price of $20,XXX is a steal for a vehicle that has MSRP of $27,305. I say if you like it, don't even think twice.

I personally like the Army star on the hood but not so much on the quarter panels and I love those graphite colored rims.

Good luck and hope to see some pictures once you pick it up ;)

Checked Kelley Blue Book and the price after rebates would be $23,900. Gotta wonder why this one you're looking at is so cheap :confused: You probably won't be able to get any special financing rates through the dealer taking the rebates. I'm sure they have a $500 military cash allowance factored into the price. Usually when a deal is too good to be true it probably is. I hope for your sake the deal goes through; we LOVE our 2013 Patriot and the one you're looking at is sweeeet!!!

Seriously that thing has killer options for that low of a price

For one, we gotta figure out money =)

We were originally looking at getting a truck... then my wife decided she might want an SUV so we went and looked at some and test drove a Patriot. She really liked it, especially the better MPG than our Cherokee.

Showed her the one I linked and she fell in love with it. Just trying to figure out if we wanna get a FWD, 4x4 more basic version or just go all out and get this one that's fully loaded.

We have the money to pretty much buy a FWD or a lower end 4x4 outright. Just trying to figure out if we want to finance the other 5-8k and get fully loaded.

I go to school full-time, work P/T... her job doesn't pay as much, but we do get to live for free so it's a matter of what are our "needs","wants" and what we can do financially.

There's a closer dealer that has an Oscar Mike edition, but no FDII or Nav, but for the same price. They do have a fully loaded black on black one with leather interior/nav screen but it didn't have the price nor can we find it online. Had an MSRP of $27,000ish so I'm assuming the sale price will be similar to the Oscar Mike since the MSRP is very similar.

That's a great price. I'm not a fan of white vehicles, but there are those that like them. If you have the money to purchase a lower end 4x4 without all the bells and whistles without financing, that is the way I would go, but really it has to be your decision. And yes, some with newer Pats experienced leaks with sunroofs even as new as 2012s.

President's Day is the time when many go on sale. As a point of reference, I purchased mine in February 2012 and paid $18,500. I have no power locks or windows though. Some can't live without them. It's a pain sometimes, but something I have adjusted to.

Buy the vehicle you can afford. I would suggest 4x4 if you live in any area that gets snow. But again, that's just my opinion.

We're in Boise, but similar weather to Caldwell.

We'd be using it as a weekend warrior as well. Camping, forest service roads, mild trails etc. Nothing too crazy. I'll be getting a fullsize Montero for when we have a bigger family and when we don't wanna beat up the nicer rig.

If it has fd1 it'll just have 4wd but fd2 has the low offroad setting on shifter right? Looking at a fd1 unless they have more incentives for Presidents' Day. The fd1 we are looking at could be paid off in a couple months with tax return whereas the fully loaded will be more... Decisions... We are getting a Montero for serious offroading so that's playing a part in our decision
