2009 Jeep Patriot Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by compton26

Safety & braking

Stock side curtain air bags are a benefit over the Accord.

Ride smoothness

Rides quiet and smooth with little road noise. AWD makes the vehicle corner with confidence.

Cargo capacity

Largest cargo capacity of the sub compact SUVs. The ability of the 2.4L to tow a light utility trailer and still have enought power is impressive.

Dealer practices

The dealer I dealt with in Vancouver WA was less than honest and although I was told I was getting the vehile for "$1k less than invoice" by the time it was done I paid about $1k less than MSRP. I could go on.
