Man I'm not a huge Honda guy or anything but over those cars and for the car you really want, figure out a way to get it. You'll regret it for a long time if you don't

I would:
Try to keep driving your truck
Search hard for a Fit really expand your search at various dealers and ask them to search around for a car to trade for
rent a car for a month if all else fails

your options seem kinda random.

If I had to chose from those, I would go with either the corolla or the scion. They are kind of different vehicles but both are very strong in many areas. Scion would be more fun to drive. Corolla would be more efficient and probably cheaper in the long run. Also easier to resell, repair, find parts for.
Kia would require a leap of faith for me. (And I am not a domestic car guy at all - as far as jeep). Good luck.

These are some of the cars I liked I was wondering which one would you all choose,

2013 Scion xd 5 speed
2014 jeep patriot 5 speed
2015 Kia forte sedan 6 speed
2014 Toyota LE corolla cvt




I'm leaning towards going with the corolla
Did you try searching cars.com and see if there is one close to you? You might not get the color you want is all...

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer the Hyundai Elantra's cabin to the Forte's, though the Forte's exterior is nicer. Both companies have developed reputations for stellar quality, basically on par with Toyota and Honda. If you're okay with something the size of the Scion xD (and the Fit), you may also want to consider the Hyundai Accent hatchback and Kia Rio 5-door.
