The more I drive it, the more I like it
By Rocky Mountain Hiker, November 19, 2011

I wanted a basic 4x4 pavement Jeep with air-conditioning, plain crank windows, 5-speed standard and 40mpg. Then I testdrove a Patriot with the CV automatic and loved it-- the tranny's fun to use and a superb idea for gas milage. Keeps the revs at the best setting for gas milage, or for power. Although I didn't get the offroad package, it still has a bull low to slowly go up steep rough hills, and overdrive that idles it down the highway (1200rpm at 100kph). When you override the automatic and shift down, the engine compression revs slow the car enough so you don't have to waste brakes. The 2.4L engine is a bit slow to respond, but give it a second to rev over 3000 rpm, and you get ample power. Offroad, I found visibility of nearby rocks/trees/objects is poor the way the windows are set so high. The 17" Goodyear Wrangler all-season tires spin out easy on clay or gravel, but are great on pavement and even grip well on ice/snow. Had it 6 months now in the Canadian Rockies, recently had a big snowfall with ice/slush/packed snow and the Patriot is unstoppable, a blast. Difficult to do skids or doughnuts--the traction control, 4x4, the ABS brakes and electronic stabilization control end up rocketing it down the road instead! (You can hold the ESC button down for 5 secs to partially disable that. But it won't fully disengage traction control, drat, there's times I want to lock up the tires.) The yellow blinking traction light, and buzzing ABS brake pedal give lots of ice warning. Got snowtires but who needs them? On a cold day -20C, warms up fast. Not keen on the plastic bumpers, had to buy tow hooks and a trailor hitch so I can pull on something when I get stuck. Hmm, wouldn't want to go NorthEast BC where it's -50C, all that plastic would fracture. But overall, this is a keeper vehicle.
