I drive a total of 4 hours throughout the day everyday in the city of Toronto and get to see only 1 or 2 in a week. Though I decided to use my other car one night and saw at least 8. Are Patriots nocturnal?
 
yep

I live near Mines Falls in N.H. (its a park) and I must see at least 4 a day drive past my apt. The weirdest one I have seen yet was yesterday; it was the most diffrent color blue I have seen. It looks nice but almost makes the Patriot look like a matchbox car..
one was parked next to the one i bought
almost neon blue,
icepop blue?

my area lots of compass's, seeing a few patriots, tons of old style libertys and a few new style
 
During my 4th of July trip, 700 miles round trip, I saw just one other Patriot on the road. It was a khaki colored limited with Louisiana plates. She was doing about 68MPH and I was cruising at 74MPH. As I came alongside, I slowed to match her speed, gave them a thumbs up salute and a wave, then resumed my speed and shifted over in front to proudly display my www.JeepPatriot.com window sticker. :D
 
It seems that I have the only one here in Cedar Rapids. Am sure I will be seeing more pop up though, always seems to work that way!
Well, if my wife survives her illness, the plan is to take our Patriot on a road trip to Mt. Pleasant Iowa. The state would have at least two for about a week anyway.

Jeep spotting in the Gaspesia region

Here Patriots are beginning to show up. In the past 2 weeks, I have spotted two blue ones, a white one and a green one just like mine. I'm still the only Patriot owner in my specific area.

But my main concern is the Jeep competion coming from my neighbours!

On my drive up Michigan Rd today, I was next to the elusive Limited Kakhi Compass with custom rims, off-road tires, navy stickers, and website logo on the back.

Jeepster55 (if that was you) you have got one of the best looking Compass' out there. Definitely does not look like all the other similarly shaped CUVs out there. :smiley_thumbs_up:
 
yep, that was ME! and thanks.....still have to get my RRO Lift Kit installed, but it have kind of a 'nasty' look to it!

i saw you before you were up beside my Jeep and i was wondering 'was that Joe?'. now it's confirmed.......it was you, Purdue Plate and all! nice 'meetin' ya there, Joe. i think i've seen you up and down Michigan Rd before, just didn't put 2 and 2 together.

i also saw that you turned on Grandview off of Kessler. i LIVE on Grandview, north of 73rd/Westlane. small world, you're probably my neighbor! ha ha

see ya around........:smiley_thumbs_up:
 
speaking of sightings.....i saw TWO COMPASS' (would that be 'Compasses' or 'Compai'?)....both black, today in Greenwood. don't usually see many Compass' around, mostly Patriots.

oh, i did see a Steel Blue Patriot on Michigan Rd on my way home tonight....oh wait, we already covered that. nevermind......
 
yepi also saw that you turned on Grandview off of Kessler. i LIVE on Grandview, north of 73rd/Westlane. small world, you're probably my neighbor! ha ha

Sure are, I live in Grandview Gardens just north of 66th off Grandview.
It is amazing that we have not crossed paths before.

So all of you that have not seen other Compass' or Patriots yet you must not be looking under your nose or not seeing the trees for the forest. Jeepster55 and I live less than a mile apart and this was the first time I have seen him.
 
this goes for some of my other 'friends' too. i'm on a smart car forum and one of the members girlfriend lives ON MY STREET, less than a block away, yet i have NEVER seen his silver and black smart car anywhere around here. not to mention that HE lives just off of 61st and Michigan Rd.

like you said Joe, the "MK's" (and smarts too) are apparently 'hiding in plain sight'!!!! :icon_rolleyes:
 
I see at least a half dozen Pats a day, maybe a few less Compie (there must be a thread elsewhere that figures out plural of Compass :) On a recent road trip to the cabin via the Hurley pass I noticed Whistler is overrun with Pats infested even. It would appear as though the Subaru dealer is taking a beating from the Patriots. Whistler BC home of the 2010 Olympics and Unofficial Patriot Capital of BC. I must have seen 8 or 9 in the 15mins it takes to drive trough town.
