I think I have found a place to get my questions answered! We are in the market for a new vehicle and the Compass is on our list. We currently have a 2004 Wrangler Unlimited but we also have a 1 year old son and the Wrangler is just not working anymore. The other two cars on our list are the Patriot, and the Rav4.
I think we are leaning towards the Compass. We like the price, and my husband is not keen on the style of the Patriot. My concern is the size of the Compass. We live in a teeny tiny town and there is no way we'd be able to visit a Jeep dealership until we make the decision and actually go to buy one. Nobody in our town has a Compass so we can't actually view one and neither of us has actually seen one in real life. I have been browsing every picture of the Compass I can find to try and get a feel for how big it is but then I read somewhere that it is exactly like the Caliber and that scares me. To me the Caliber is a car and we don't want a car, we want a SUV.
Can someone try and explain to me how they would compare the size of the Compass to say, the Caliber and maybe the Rav4. Do you have any pictures of the Compass next to any other vehicles that you can post?
I'd really appreciate any help,
Kristin
