i just bought a 2011 Patriot Latitude X FWD with the 2.4L. I should be picking it up tomorrow sometime and cant wait. I got the Latitude X FWD thats black with black leather heated heats. Only option added to it is the mygiga with nav (430N). It was a demo with 800 miles on it and got a extra $500 off. Goodbye apen with poor gas mileage.

Sounds nice and black is GOOD!

I'm going to make my own CAI like i did for aspen to get a little more power and air into the engine. does the patriot have a resonator?

There is a link to a DIY CAI in the Quick Links sticky, if that helps.

I just got my patriot, it's real nice and drives good. drove from the dealer to work and thats almost 30 miles and got 25mpg. Best in the city with the aspen was 15.5 if i made just about every light. I got the uconnect working and that's nice to have. They washed it just before i picked it up and drove to work and it went from black to white. They told me the radio had NAV but it doesn't so ill have to find to mount my gps.

I took my viper alarm/remote starter out of my aspen and having it installed tomorrow in the patriot and getting the windows tinted. I mite get my rims painted black to match everything else.

Congrats! Enjoy it. My one regret on mine is not getting those heated seats!

heated seats i believe is standard on all 3 models for 2011. i know the latitude and the latitude x have them. If my patriot didn't have heated seats i wouldn't of gotten leather.

I hear you. I have a 2010 sport. My other three cars all have leather and the heated seats. I can say this, I have been freezing my behind off waiting for my leather seats to warm up in the mornings I drive one of my cars to work. The cloth in the Patriot warms up very fast on its own.

The heated leather seats in the patriot warm up fast, almost too fast.

I found a 2in lift that i mite get in the summer time. Just need to find someone to install it for me. The stock Firestone tires suck big time.
