2007 Jeep Compass Sport

"What?s the controversy? For starters, no matter how many times the Jeep marketing folks say the base Compass is ?two-wheel drive,? this is the first front-wheel-drive-based Jeep. Those screams you hear are from the Jeep faithful jumping off a cliff somewhere in Moab.
Then there?s the fact the Compass, despite its tough truck exterior, is a car at heart, built on the same chassis as Caliber, Dodge?s upright small-car replacement for the Neon. Compass doesn?t even try to meet Jeep?s vaunted Trail-Rated off-roading standards. Those moans you hear are from the Jeep faithful slashing their wrists somewhere along the Rubicon.
If that?s not enough, consider this word combination: ?diamond-plate plastic.? It?s enough to make a proud, self-respecting Jeep devotee consider buying a Hummer."
