This Is The Fierce And Fearless, Nissan Armada Mountain Patrol

It Was A One-Off Project That Made Headline And Impressed Fans

Nissan took to social media asking fans to share ideas for the annual Overland Expo West show in Flagstaff, Arizona. The end result was a remodeling of a Nissan Armada into a one-off epic machine.

The Armada Mountain Patrol was designed with overlanding in mind. This simply means that every modification either helps it be a better off-roader or a more hospitable mobile campsite.

Nissan started with a stock 2018 Armada 4WD, bearing a 390-hp 5.6-liter V-8 and blend with a seven-speed automatic transmission. From there, Nissan added 17-inch Icon Bronze Rebound wheels wrapped in 35-inch Nitto Ridge Grappler tires, a Calmini 6-inch lift kit, and Icon coil-over suspension with extended A-arms.

There were reportedly very minimal changes to the Armada’s drivetrain. Fans for this project had more ideas.They voted to outfit the Armada further with a set of Baja Designs auxiliary lights and light bar.

It is fitted luxurious to a Rhino Rack Backbone roof-mounted cargo system. The interior got its fair share of modification as well, including a Lowrance navigation system, a Rugged Radios off-road radio system.

A refrigerator and freezer combo, Otterbox Venture cooler, and a set of extra storage trays to help keep things tidy around. The apex of these features is a roof-mounted tent that sleeps four people. It comes complete with a ladder that slides down when need be.
