Hey guys,

My name is Jeremy. I recently picked up a 2008 Jeep Patriot Limited. I had a 2005 Dodge Ram that I sold a while back, the gas prices were getting the better of me.

I found your forum while searching for answers on the window switch lights. Cheap Jeep, they should all be illuminated

Anyways, just thought I'd introduce myself :banana:

Welcome! Jeep will grow on you...trust me. One day...five jeeps down the road...you will wake up and wonder why you ever drove anything else. Have fun!

Welcome. I had a 2004.5 Ram 2500 Diesel. I used to use it to haul equipment, dirt etc. but the last year it was really used for 2 camping trips and nothing else. So I decided to go with the Patriot.

I've found that a Patriot and a utility trailer are every bit as useful as a pickup and a lot more economical.
