Greetings! About a week ago I picked up a 2011 Patriot Latitude and am slowly poking around at it, figuring out what to modify and how I want to use it. So far I'm pretty impressed with it. It's one of the elusive 5-speed AWD models, which was the main combination I was looking for when I started car shopping.
An initial picture:
I spend a lot of time out in the mountains and exploring forest roads and things like that, so I'm aiming for sort of a light overlanding vehicle—not looking to go rock crawling anytime soon, I just don't really want to have to turn back when the road gets bumpy.
So far I've replaced some light bulbs and wiper blades, ordered some bits to get bluetooth audio working, and started planning the eventual adventure build. More to come soon!
