International This area is for all our fellow wheelers outside of the US. So now Canada and other countries have their own area.

Any Canadians ???

Do you bring the Jeep often? Trying to think if I've ever noticed it before.. I always try to wave at other Jeep's (including Wranglers and JK's) if I see them on my drive.

I might end up driving past your area on my way to Oshawa if I end up going lol.

Good to see more then a few Islanders on here! Born in North Battleford, Saskatchewan, raised on Salt Spring Island, BC, currently living in Victoria. Every couple of years or so I get out to Kamsack, SK to see my dad. Don't drive what most would consider a Cherokee, though it's been referred to as an EJ & a Cherokee "Deluxe"

Love those Eagles! I've considered looking for one of those to drive so I can get some work done on the Cherokee. Do you have any more pictures or information you can share on it? lol

Yup, I've got a few more pics on my profile. As for info, just ask! They're pretty sweet cars stock, especially if you're willing to make a few minor changes (ie, remove all that stupid 80's emission junk, carb upgrade/swap, bypass the ECM, switch the front axle & t-case to shift-on-the-fly, if it isn't already). They're relatively heavy cars, about 3400lbs or so, so they do really well in the snow, & they're very solid, which makes them quite safe. I know one guy who hit some ice & took out a couple small-ish trees before his car finally buried its nose in a snow bank (crumpled one front fender & bent the front sub-frame), but he was able to drive (limp) it home. Another got t-boned by a drunk driver in an Astro van that had run a red light, & not only did he & all four of his passengers walk away unscathed, he continued to drive that wagon for months after (though the passenger side doors never did open again :P ). They've got decent ground clearance, but are still easy for shorter/delicate people to get in & out of. The drivetrain is basically 80's Jeep (258 engine, TF998 trans, NP128/129 t-case), so the most PITA parts to find are for the IFS, but even that's still quite manageable. About the only thing I don't like about them is the general attitude of the people on the big Eagle forum, but, it is to be expected of a fan site, so I just shrug that off, for the most part (there is one very bad apple there, constantly scamming people, yet we can't seem to get rid of him - but that's a rant I'll leave for private messages or general topics haha)
