OFF TOPIC....How do you like the RENEGADE so far? Drove one and it was a blast. Heard tranny faliures etc and questionable reliability? Could have been the first year? Watch that texture finish on that roof! I would seal it with BFCS.

Thanks for the link. Yes we bought the Trailhawk. We love it so far, we have a total of 2200 miles on it. I have read about the trans issues. from everything i read you want to stay away from the 2015 model. We have had no issues so far.

First thing we did was have the black sticker removed from the hood. To be fair it will not win any speed trials, but it is good enough for us. We have been averaging 23MPG around town and 27MPG highway.

The better half and myself over the last few months, drove about every mid/small suv out there. Just to compare them. They all look like eggs! LOL. For me the RENEGADE came out on top. Once you get over the love/hate exterior, I thought the interior and the drive was great. Fun to drive. I would have to have the cold weather package. Heated seats/steering wheel. I also liked the size. Just right.
