The Patriot Rodeo is a Racing Truck in MotorStorm: Pacific Rift.
Resemblance[]
Like some others in its class, it seems to be at least partially based on a street truck, like its stablemate, the Wildtrek-X. The styling of this vehicle somewhat resembles large Dodge pickups.

- Having been the trusted workhorse in many parts of the world for over five years, the Rodeo has seen a new lease of life. Many privateers have taken the chassis and replaced many of the parts with race specification items. The standard engine power has been increased from 240bhp to a more potent 383bhp. Much of the original suspension from the standard model has been completely changed to a Trophy Truck configuration to fit the requirements set by the M.R.A (MotorStorm race authority). This upgrade has made the Patriot Rodeo a very capable off road racer and many privateer drivers have had many victories with this vehicle. Patriot themselves have been known to fund some of the more lucky drivers making the Rodeo a very dangerous opponent.
Trivia[]
