"Driving Your Eagle On-and-Off Road"
My 81 was an "automatic full-time, four-wheel-drive" and at the time the "Select Drive" was not yet offered although this four page pamphlet was included.

AMC Eagle SX-4 Sport
Expensive it is, an Audi Quattro it isn't.
Car & Driver, September 1980
A very disappointing review.  It seems that C&D must have had their mind set on having a Audi Quattro and they kept comparing the SX/4 to a car with a completely different mission and that cost $35,000 at the time.  Pretty funny in light of the June article.
