Hi, I bought my wife a 2011 patriot 70th aniversery model. Petrol. Auto. Stock as a rock. Took it out to tallarook, vic, last weekend. Went alright I thought, we went down a few seasonal road closures tracks, seemed to handle it fine, got heaps of wheel lift though. Not much travel! Drove up tracks fine, auto seems to sence when your rock crawling and handle power well. I'm not saying it's great off road but goes alright. As other people said suspension feels good. Some more aggressive tyres would help as we had the factory 18" alloys with sport tyres. Been a good car otherwise, wife loves it!
