Lol Craig, I'm afraid we're in the same basket as you, went from having various Cruisers to buying a Wrangler. Our mistake was buying a petrol and thinking it would be an ok travel / touring vehicle for now at least (have two kids, counting the years and years until they leave home and we retire :D)
Anyhow I think we finally have a vehicle that we should have brought a long time ago...V8 Troopy 5 seater!
The biggest thing we didn't like was having to carry petrol and the rate that petrol was consumed!
But then again take away the kids, give us a Wrangler with an awesome diesel engine in it, the story might have been different.
Local people I know have a Cherokee, not sure what year or if it's a diesel but they think it's great!
If the Cherokee is anything like the Wrangler, they have a lot more electronics in them compared to the good old 80 series. But I suppose at one point or another you eventually have to move on and get on with the new tech in one way or another.
