How is the Jeep Patriot or Jeep Compass?

[Bonkers D. Bobcat]

I am thinking on purchasing either the 2010 Jeep Patriot or the Jeep Compass. I am not into off roading or nothing like that. Just a simple car that'll get me from Point A to Point B.

The reason for wanting small cars is because I have a gas guzzler and I have no reason to keep it. The reason why I looked at those two is because of MPG ratings (the current one I have is 13/17.)

And the reason why I chose Jeep is because all my friends/family have Hondas, Toyotas, Fords, and Chevys. I want to stay away from that bandwagon and it brought me to Jeeps. What are your thoughts on these two and which one of those two (Patriot or Compass) would you recommend?

Thank you and God Bless!

The Patriot and Compass are nothing more than restyled Dodge Calibers. These vehicles can be a good buy for the money but refinement and quality wise they are not up to par with the Japanese or even current domestic Ford and GM offerings.
