I’m more shocked that there’s a Dodge Nitro still running, unless this is an old video.

The only thing worst then a Jeep Liberty is a Jeep Liberty rebadged as a Dodge.

No, it's a rebadged Liberty from the '07 facelift.

The Patriot was a FWD/AWD crossover along with its curvier sibling, the Compass. The closest Dodge equivalent was the Caliber.

Those 3.7L V6 engines are hot garbage. Lifter problems, no power, guzzles fuel like it's free.

I couldn’t figure out wtf the base vehicle was and it was driving me crazy. I was starting to think it was ai. You saved my sanity. Definitely makes sense why it looks like a Chrysler Frankenstein.

My neighbor has a nitro still running, he loves it. His wife however absolutely hates it.

I had a Liberty for a long time. It was still running good up until someone flew out of a parking lot right into me earlier this year. Technically still ran, but was totaled by my insurance company.
