I don't know anyone with the Patriot, so I can't comment either way. I do have 2 friends that use the Invisibrake, and both like theirs. By the way, my towed is to heavy for a ReadyBrake, and I the install it and forget it is not true. Everyone I know who has one said while it does what it should, all of them have had to replace the cable at least once, said you can't lube it, and over time it wears through the cable strands, so you have to inspect it, but both said the inspection didn't catch the wear and it broke while traveling. Both said they will go with something different on their next towed.
