Used Jeep Patriot for Sale in Vero Beach, FL

I purchased my 2013 Jeep Patriot after leasing it for three years. The gas mileage was decent, but admittedly, a little low for my tastes. It didn't have some of the features that I like on newer cars such as a back-up camera. The cargo space was decent (you could fold the back seats all the way flat), but I would have preferred something that wasn't so oddly shaped. It made traveling with furniture and other large items much more difficult. The A/C also didn't ever kick on right away. You had to run the car for awhile before you could feel any air coming out. I wish it had more legroom given its size. I would say it was a great car for my husband and I, but I wouldn't want to try to work it with kids.

I love my Jeep. I am a long time Jeep owner, and will always be. I like the utility, the ruggedness, and it's ability to take on difficult terrain. But is Jeep becoming a little to mainstream, and becoming more like a traditional SUV? I sure hope not.

In looking for second vehicle, I came across several Jeep's including the Patriot. I was not familiar with this Jeep model but decided to give it a test drive and was pleasantly surprised by what I found. The Jeep felt very solid and had very little road noise while out on the highway. The controls were all located where you would expect them to be and were well done. Interior feels spacious due to it being in the SUV range of vehicles. My family of four fits in it with plenty of room to spare. While this is a Jeep, a company with an off-road pedigree, it is not four-wheel drive and as a result leave it on the pavement or well-maintained dirt roads.
