review
very incredible suv. good gas mileage, very fast for a 4 cyl, incredibly quiet trans and engine. small exterior and a very large interior. really good use of space.
I wished honda and toyota would put a 2.0 or 2.2 liter engine on their rav4's and crv's. with that setup getting 30mpg wouldnt be that hard, even with the automatic
I drove the 07 compass, and its a pretty nice ride, only thing i didnt like was the dash.... made of cheap plastic
I just drove a Jeep Compass and a Jeep Patriot about 40 miles each for work. I was able to hold 56 mph and about 1800-1900 rpm's on level ground. Niether vehicle had a trip computer so I can't give you MPG figures, but I have customers tell me they get as high as 27mpg hwy on 4X4 versions, but I don't know their driving habits or patterns.
