My 2012 Jeep Patriot is the second vehicle that I’ve installed one of ProClip’s vehicle specific mounts in. When you find a quality product that simply works, there aren’t many reasons to look for an alternative.

Lobster Bisque: Rock Lobster Spotted
A year ago I was going Crush crazy, but Rock Lobster is slowly taking its place as my favorite Jeep color of recent years second only to Mango Tango. Continue reading
the 2013 Rubicon of all Rubicons
Despite the lack of a 25th Anniversary Wrangler, Jeep recently announced the 10th Anniversary Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Limited Edition for 2013. Jeep decided to honor the king of the trail by taking the most off-road-able production vehicle available today, and making it even more… off-road-able.
Jeep honors veterans with Freedom edition Patriot for 2013
With the recent reveal of the Jeep Wrangler Moab edition, I was hoping that the Freedom edition Patriot was going to come with an optional rear locker too; sadly, it is just a sticker package. A pretty cool sticker package, but a sticker package none the less.
Wrangler Rock Lobster Revealed in Paris
Jeep recently showed off the new Moab Edition Wrangler at the Paris Auto Show. It was also the first sighting of one of the new Wrangler colors for 2013, Rock Lobster. The pictures of Jeep’s new colors always look a bit different in person, but I hope this reddish-orange is close to the real deal.

Kevin’s New Wheels
It’s not the 4 door Crush Orange Wrangler Rubicon I had dreamed of – but I love my new 2012 Patriot Sport 4X4 all the same. Continue reading
Jeep continues to test the water with a pair of pickup concepts
Around this time every year, Jeep reveals concept vehicles to showcase at the annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab Utah. the EJS is most likely the largest single gathering of Jeep vehicles on the planet, and is certainly a great place for the Chrysler heads to acquire some customer feedback from the core of their customer base; the enthusiasts. This year, like the past few years, there is a nice mix of realistic production potentials, and outrageously awesome pipe-dream concepts. One trend we’ve seen over the last few years is the presence of Wrangler based pickup trucks – this year Jeep built two of them.
