Has anyone seen any pictures of the Patriot from the L.A. Auto show? I've done a couple of searches and come up empty. I would like to see some NEW photos.

Count me in on that too!

I'd love to see some new shots.

I don't know if the Patriot is even there... here are some shots from the 2006 LA Auto Show (http://www.automotive.com/features/auto-shows/58/2006/laas/jeep-photos.html)

Those pics are not from the current show. I did find a couple of pics:

I like the black one also.

It's wearing a badge!! It's wearing a badge!! Does that mean this is what they will really look like?!?!?

Thanks for the cool photo links!

Glad I could help. I found another site today. Check these out.

although the patriot is supposed to be very very similar to the compass, it looks like to me that the patriot doesn't look as cheap (especially the interior). we'll see.

Thanks for the pics, I noticed the trail rated badge, does that mean that this is the freedom II addition or are both considered trail rated.

Also, what is up w/ the front bumper being gray? I noticed that on the pics on jeep too, are all models going to have that? the sema version didn't, was that a mod?

The SEMA front bumper was an upgrade I want! Take a look at how it bumps up as it wraps around the corners, giving the front tires a little more room. It also has two nice hooks hanging out there. It looks metal versus a plastic cover, too.
