Jeep Patriot

What its platform mate, the Jeep Compass, lacks in off-road ability, the Patriot makes up for with its trail rated badge. Though still not the best highway cruiser, the Patriot is a true entry-level Jeep. Priced very comparably to the Compass, the Patriot gets the nod for those who yearn for a good ol' fashioned trail ride without breaking the bank.
