I'll gladly offer a ride cross-country in my 2002. At 242,000 miles it's still as reliable as anything I've ever driven. And big trips and 60 mile commutes have gotten the mileage up there. I've had the usual repairs, an alternator, expansion tank, four window regulators, one door handle carrier and a couple of FSRs. With one exception, I've just done proper maintenance with things like brake fluid flushes and hose changes. The only disappointment was the failure of the front driveshaft splines, and I still can't believe there hasn't been a recall on that - some engineer was asleep when that was designed to engage less than an inch into the transfer case. But as I sweep around a tight Dallas cloverleaf at 45 mph...all is well!
