Its been a while since i posted, cuz i forgot to bookmark the page... yeah, i'm smart... but for those in the northern illinois area, there is some ComEd service roads arround me, which are really no good for a stock Cherokee :thumbsdown:

long story short, i got my rig stuck on the edge of a creek and i thought i was :dead: . fortunatley my bro's friend was able to pull me out with his full size bronco after 12 hours of me going :wacko:

.
Untill my next adventure, -J

Welcome back! There are a few members that I'm aware of in your area. Did you get any pics of your stuck Jeep?

I drive an 87' XJ.
I have a photoblog at EricLeslie.com

my XJ wasnt stock for long but it was fun wheelin' it before lifting it. Sucks you got stuck... but thats half the fun! Keep wheelin' and next time take your camera. Gald you found your way back to the site :thumbsup:

I'm all for running your stock 4x4s. That's the only way to learn how to drive and know what you need to upgrade. Get out there and get stuck when you've got your buddy around. Like Onk said, get some recovery points to safely pull you out with and get some simple survival gear like a first aid kit, food and things to start a fire. You should never need it, but it might save you life
