I'm a new member from near Summerfield, FL. I purchased a new Jeep Renegade Latitude on Wednesday. It has the 2.4 engine and automatic. So far I like it.

It's primary use will be our family vehicle. I'm 86 years old and have owned many cars. I usually do most of my required maintenance. I'm retired from the US Army.

Thanks for the welcome. I'll try to learn and perhaps I can contribute later.

Welcome Flash, how are you enjoying the ride comfort?

Welcome to the forum Flash, did you get a discount since you worked in the army?

Caltom, the ride is good for a short wheelbase vehicle. as with most new vehicles the electric power steering has little road feel. So far I like it. thanks for the welcome.

tony, they took my military service information, but the invoice doesn't reflect a military credit. maybe some other dealer would have given a military discount. I traded a Porsche 944 on it, the car had 191k and ran ok but they didn't want it, so they made some phone calls and someone else took it at a price I was satisfied with. too bad it wasn't a 911. Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome from a fellow Floridian! I grew up in Belleview, right next door! I still go back to Marion county all the time, as my pops lives in Ocklawaha. It saddens me to know the dealership didn't give you the military discount, what a rip!
