Jeep is the quintessential American car. The fact that a Jeep is now available that get this kind of impressive mileage, carries the traditional Jeep styling and has off road capability makes me love driving this Jeep summer and winter. see full Jeep Patriot review |

The Jeep Patriot is one of the most desirable looking / good performing small SUVs on the market with no comparison (all the others look like pill bugs in my opinion), yet the reviews for the Patriot have all been mediocre from most of my research. see full Jeep Patriot review |

Honda is basically resting on its past laurels with this car. It could be the best car sold here in the USA. Honda's new Accord is fairly quiet, but it seems that they have ignored the vast majority complaining that their cars are noisy for years!. They seem to be associating ambient noise as an acceptable quirk. No longer. There are smaller more efficient cars that are a lot quieter. Being the most reliable does not equate to truly being in love with the car. If this car was quieter or smoother riding, I would absolutely buy it even with the price premium. Until then however, my money is better spent elsewhere. see full Honda Fit review |
