Walking in to work this morning and had to stop and take a picture of this. That is, if you can't tell right off, a Jeep Patriot. Now, I'm not a Jeep guy, but I'm pretty sure that a Patriot (which also shares it's platform with the Dodge Caliber) isn't really a Jeep, which makes this window sticker twice as silly (or "precious", however you want to call it).

Silly girl, that's not a real Jeep.

Who ever installed that most likely was really bad in art class, It's not centered, and it's not straight

$10 says it's a 2wd trim to boot. That would be just perfect if it was.

I'd write her a little note explaining how it isn't a real Jeep and infact it's an insault to all Jeeps everywhere. Popping people's delusions is a fun hobby of mine.

Was she drunk when she put the sticker on? Also, when she bought the Patriot ?

The Patriot is the worst thing I've driven.

My wife is an obsessive "Jeep Girl" moved from the 1st Gen Liberty to a Commander.

She would prefer a 4 door wrangler though.

fyi, both are surprisingly capable SUVs. Patriots are crap, as is their sticker aim.

Girls who like Jeeps > girls in general. She can be saved, just buy her a YJ.

should have waited for her. Then told her to her fat face that she is dumb, and her car is crap and she doesn't know what she is talking about, then smashed her window and jump on the pieces.

Fuck your couch.

Was thinking the same thing.

Apparently, tape measures and levels ARE for boys.

I'm not really mad, just in an odd mood. It's all in good fun.

As long as the boys get Land Rovers (Series Rovers preferred, classic Range Rovers also preferred), I could be okay with this...

The real problem is how terribly it's been placed...

But it's made by the same company as FERRARI and it's TRAIL RATED YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah that sticker is stupid, and the Compass/Patriot is an obamanation for sure, but aren't they actually reasonably capable and especially for 15k.

Stef Schrader should put a sticker like that "silly boys, Porsches are for girls" on her 944 hahaha

I've seen this before. Girls around here adore jeeps and I have no idea why.

I had to move a lady friends Jeep the other night and it was a stick. Quite the shock. Also realized how much better I like driving the trans on my car

There is a high percentage of standard transmission Wranglers when compared to automatics I bet.

Silly, precious, off center, crooked...

I remember those toys when I was a kid, and even though I never had any, they were the best. Who doesn't want to put cool, futuristic weaponry on their dinosaur?

The YJ had the 4.2L and the 4.0L engines, as well as real 4WD and a folding windscreen/removable top and doors. I'd say it's real enough.

Nah, still has those terrible square headlights

My mom has one, 2wd with a CVT. It's not great to drive, but it's miles ahead of my dad's awful W-body Impala.

It was an early 2000's cherokee.

Party-vi > PowderHound 01/22/2014 at 20:03

OH. That means it had an AX5 or AX15. Those are niiiiice transmissions. At least compared to the Peugeot POS I had in my '88 Cherokee.

It felt like it would be real nice once I got used to it. It was mostly the clutch and the 6 speed with no lockout
