Congratz! I've always been envious of your low CG.
Looks to be a very capable rig, without spending a ridiculous amount of money.

Ohhhhhh.....I see. Someone from that site enters the COM and and then gets all of the members from said site t come over here and voye for him. Now that's what I call dominating the COM.

Hey,Eric,
I guess i we all know why there isn't going to be a C.O.Y. this year.

Nice going ladies.

The Cherokee of the Month contest is about members on JeepForum and none other. Please keep other agendas people have on other boards out of it. Otherwise we will not have a COM contest at all.

Just for a little bit of info, i am not a member of sisoffroad, i was just posting something i noticed and giving props to the sis members and their rigs. And frankz i think its kindof immature to claim that the members that won cherokee of the month didnt deserve it and cheated, but whatever you say. Like i said sorry eric if i sounded like i was preaching sisoffroad, i am not a member and i was just posting something i noticed.
