Here's a real world picture with natural lighting of an '06 in Patriot Blue...

I was under the impression this is patriot blue. This certainly has mettalic in it.

I think that dealer photo is deceptive because of lighting, and maybe some sort of photo shop filter.

Oh come on, now your all messing' with me

. . . you mean I should of looked at that Jeeps Sticker ? I took Johns word that it was Patriot Blue and as you know the pearl coats have very little if any "glitter" (assuming; gonna get in trouble for that?) .

? I will be sure to VERIFY next visit, & especially the 1st 2019 DT in PB !

Well this probably belongs in the "interior" section but right now it seems appropriate here, cause I'm here now, so . . . all things being equal, as a matter of fact these photos from the RAM.com could also be for the WARD's Ten Best in the World INTERIORS . . .Can you guess which one is the Big Horn and which the "Long-horn" . . .

? I Chose these 2 because the Big Horn shot is the Interior I'll be having ($$ vs. $$$$) !

(see attachment)(see attachment)

Pretty obvious isn't it ! If only I could win a Lottery or Spin the Wheel (Casino) or play "black" or, or . . . , nah, I couldn't deal with getting ANY dust or dirt on all that "pretty Leather," would drive me nuts !

. But it bears repeating, last late-afternoon when I sat in the Leathered-up Laramie at the dealer . . . it was WOW, so so comfy . . . fit me like a $200 pair of fine leather gloves !

 

 

 

+ out of 5; only because I don't want RAM getting a "Fat Head" !

OK found some new "evidence" Video - YouTube - on the Maximum Steel Metallic CLEAR COAT (vs. the Patriot Blue PEARL COAT) .
JARED, GONNA NEED YOUR HELP AGAIN GETTING IT ON HERE -- It's a 5:28 long video BY: NEMER RAM of SARATOGA | 19007S

It really shows off just what Max. Steel-Metallic CLEAR COAT looks like -- has a definite kind of blueish hue in most angles ! NOT anything like a Patriot Blue, but "Interesting" -- darn if I ain't second guessing myself already/again ! ! ! Far as I can tell it's the MAX. that doesn't have the sparkle and the Patriot only has Minimal at best ? GOOD video worthy of 5th Gens viewing !

The Hemi as seen on another thread here showing 2 different window stickers SAYS - 15/21 . . . THAT is NOT GOOD here in 2018 ! ! ! Just saying ! And these guys Lost 225 lbs. ? And with the cutting off of 4 cylinders cruising speeds ? Heck the window sticker on my 2003 with the Old Hemi was 13/18 or 13/17 ? Sure have NOT come a long way in 15 years ! Is that a 10% improvement ? Sure hope the V6 is BETTER !? My 2016 Jeep G.C. V6 says 18/25 . . . reality has it @ 8000miles - 17.4/26+ so far ! Not Bad. I'm hoping the Big Horn 4x4 Quad will indicate 17/24 ! Wishful thinking ? ? ?

I haven't read through the entire thread yet, so please forgive if I'm repeating something already said, but . . . my current ride is a six banger (roughy 4 litres) that is over 15 years old and gets about 19 on the highway with a peak horsepower of 190 and torque at 210 if I recall (tow max is just over 4,000 lbs if I remember correctly).The Hemi is just shy of 400 horsepower, it gets better mileage, and the thing can tow over triple my current clunker (the name of which shall not be mentioned).Things have come a very long way in fifteen years.When discussing MPG, it must be taken in the context of horsepower and torque. If MPG is important, you don't get a Hemi. Hemis are for power, not efficiency, though, I don't consider them at all inefficient.

Nope, its because when I was little I rode Honda motorcycles and was an avid motorcycle rider. Honda riders are called red riders. I have had that screen name since 1996. Funny thing is, I have owned a handful of Kawasakis since then.

So, Bob is a fellow rider?Did not know that . . . (I had assumed it meant red car riding)I also have a (dormant) Honda - my first working motorcycle - 1986 VFR 750F (still have it - needs carb rebuilds and some other TLC). I didn't know this when I bought it, but the VFRs are not sport bikes, but rather a cross between a sport bike and a sport touring bike. My old man had stacks of motorcycle magazines and I was always fascinated by the pictures of guys dragging their knee on the ground in the corners. I'd always wanted a bike, but living in Michigan (and being dirt poor) it just wasn't practical. I eventually bit the bullet and in 2007, finally bought the VFR. I was big time hooked instantly (just picture me actually owning a TRX - it was similar). I could not get enough of the thing. My biggest problem was finding twisties to practice my lean angle.Then . . . I don't think it was six months later, after my tax return for the year showed up, I took the jump to a 2000 (unrestricted) Suzuki GSX 1300R Hayabusa - 70+ mph in first gear 100+ in second gear, and four gears later, it teases 200 mph in stock configuration. The following season (my second season riding), a friend and I took our bikes to Grattan Raceway.That was an absolute blast = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmlvplyFd60

I didn't make to the track again for another NINE YEARS - and when I did, I high sided the stinking thing coming out of pit lane on the very first session. My track day lasted all of about six seconds.

That said . . . October 17th last year, roughly 8 PM, a different friend (27 years old) lost control of his brand spanking new 2018 Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (that he'd had on order for the better part of four months) heading west on M-59 near Adams road and hit the guard rail.He lost both arms above the elbow. He's an extremely nice guy (and oddly - even after the accident, among the happiest people I've ever known).So, bikes are not to be taken lightly. When they bite, they mean it.

I'll have to make it out to your neck of the woods one of these days @redriderbob - if the weather cooperates, I may just bring the 'Busa with me (if it hasn't turned into a Ducati Panigale V4 by that time).

I just remembered reading it was in articles. I see what you’re getting at because it certainly is similar.

All the new Patriot Blue shares with the Patriot Blue of the past is the name. It's now a trip coat color and a different shade,
