Hey everyone
I've had my eye on the Patriot now for about 2 years and just pulled the trigger. I traded in my 2002 Subaru WRX and picked up a Black 4x2 Altitude with sun & sound and the 2.4L engine 6 days ago.

Totally different experience driving the Riot, feels great with the higher ride height and loving the space I have now. I was surprised with how well it handles.

I've got a couple of mods planned for now but nothing too crazy yet, just wanna tint the windows darker than what it came with, love to find a Bull Bar that doesn't block the fog lights (seen other posts and doesn't appear they make this yet), plasti dip all badges and replace the factory antenna with a shortened black one.

I'm looking forward to digging through this forum for info and new ideas.

Welcome! I'm pretty sure you're the second Altitude on here. But we'd still love to see some pics! They are sweet looking rides!
