Now hopefully the company can stay in business so I can have decent service!

 

I just can't get my head around what yous guys in the States pay for vehicles! They give 'em away over there!

Yeah it make you sick doesn't it. It's like you take the US figure and replace the $ for a £.

 

Enjoy! I was saying to my missus this weekend how much I love my Jeep

 

Congrats on the new ride looking forward to the pics

 

Congrats on the new ride !

 

Thanks folks! I will get some pics posted soon. So far it is a pretty sweet ride.

 

i also had a 1999 4x4 ranger with 136,000 sold it for 5K
got a good deal for it
wish the dealer had FDII's when i bought mine

 

Phatdilf, I'm sure that your Ranger's body had lot less rust because you are in NM. The salt on these roads in Maine is murder on vehicle's bodies. It takes several years off an otherwise good truck's life.

 

Mine is 2009 but in same configuration. I love my Jeep. Happy driving!

 

Welcome to the JeepPatriot.com forum Bob! Sounds like you got a very nice deal! Enjoy the site and post those photos soon.... Again, welcome aboard...

 

Congratulations, bbqbob, Just enjoy your new Pat! Let us know...let us see...

 

Enjoy the ride!

 

Wow that's a great deal. I too traded in my '99 ranger for my Pat. Welcome to the Patriot family!

 

Welcome and enjoy your new Riot. Post some pics soon as you can.

Very quickly I am seeing $24780 USD vs $27115 CDN MSRP for
26E trim
convenience
tire and wheel

so only about a 10% premium (not the 20 - 25%) it should be based on FX rate at the moment

YMMV at dealer however we still pay approx the above amout in Canada plus the 12% (BC), although state taxes are all different as well so never sure on the "ALL IN OFF THE LOT" price

 

I base it on what the current US exchange rate, if we go to the bank, easily adding 27 - 30%,thus the above US Patriot will be well over $30K. US do pay way less in their Destination charges, US$600 - 650 compare to $1350 in Canada. Sales Tax are closing in fast in the US, ie WA is at 8.5%, might be able to make it up with cheaper Insurance rates.

 

All things considered I think these Patriots are a great deal for their class.

 

congrats on the patriot

In my opinion theres no better patriot than one with 4wd and freedom drive 2.

now u have a rugged jeep with great offroad capability. lets see a crv do that

 

patriots in canada are almost free for a new car

I got my patriot in green with 4wd for just 18,864 canadian its a jeep,its rugged and its got 4wd cant go wrong with that combination.

 

Patriot Lover, I agree that the Patriot with the FD2 is a good deal for the money. It came with so many options for the price. I do hope that he cvt automatic will hold up in the long term.

 

Congrats Bob! That's a hell of a deal. Enjoy!
