I purchased a used 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee about two years ago. This vehicle had close to 200,000 miles on it when I purchased it. I was not worried about the mileage because I have heard excellent things about the 4.0 Inline six cylinder engine used in this vehicle. While I have owned my Jeep I have added about 30,000. I have performed routine maintenance and replaced a few steering components, not bad for a 15 year old vehicle with close to a quarter million miles. The seats are comfortable enough for long trips and the interior is laid out well for me. The cup holders are a little close together so when you try to put large drinks in them they have trouble fitting. The best feature of this vehicle though is the fact that it is a Jeep. Jeeps have a reputation for being kings of four wheel drive, and I would not hesitate to take my Jeep anywhere. I have never gotten stuck, and have even pulled people out of ditches in the snow. The towing capabilities are well matched to my needs. This Jeep also gets rather good fuel mileage for a vehicle which can pull a two and a half ton trailer. The EPA estimated fuel mileage for a 2000 Grand Cherokee Laredo with the 4.0 Engine and four wheel drive is 16 city and 21 highway. Personally I experience a combined fuel mileage of around 21 MPG. When I take the Jeep on road trips mileage climbs to around 27 MPG.

Overall, I have loved my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. I bought it when it was one year old and had 14,000 miles. Now in 2017, I have just under 100,000 miles on it (I don't drive a ton. A few cross-country trips but mainly to work and back), and it is still going strong. I plan on driving this for a long time (until it breaks), as it is currently paid off. However, I love it so much that I plan on continuing to purchase Jeeps as long as I am driving. My next car will be a Jeep Wrangler.
