That, and the newest Jeeps (Compass and Patriot) are mutant FWD [:'(].
What was Jeep thinking, or NOT thinking?
Agreed. I hate both of those. Jeep is supposed to be an off road/affordable luxury/traditional SUV not a cutezy, lovable chick mobile,
Escape-wannabe. These two are a disgrace. I love the Grand Cherokee, Liberty, Wrangler, and Commander, but these two just aren't right. They need Eagle back to take up this role. This vehicle can't be trail rated nor have any serious abilities unlike the other real Jeeps.

I like the GC SRT-8 but this reminds me of the Aztek. ICK!
the escape was designed to compete with the liberty. look at them they are like identical except one is garbage. the escape made the liberty a Chick car too. the liberty does fall into the off road/affordable luxury/traditional SUV. the affordable luxury is what was my main attraction. i haven't seen a patriot so i cant judge yet but i think that will be alot more acceptable as a jeep.

i like the caliber but for me it doesn't work as a jeep.

The liberty was designed for a woman from the start. Any Jeep rep will tell you that. The target group for that suv is women ages 18-35.

Well that is true that the Liberty has been made into a chick car; however, it still has the off-roading capabilities which gives it a good amount of masculinity to counter that. The Escape is purely a chick car, the Jeep still has a masculine appeal with the off-roading side of it personality.

Nick, hate to burst your bubble man....but the Ford Escape was built first in 2001....a full year before the Liberty....

As for the Patriot....it just looks like a redesigned Liberty....and I think it looks better.....
