You can go for 2022 Cherokee Trailhawk. It looks similar to yours but it has been updated. With dealer discounts it is about 35k. Something else a little different but more modern and bigger on the inside would be Santa Fe/ Limited at 40K. A Mercedes GLB at just under 50 K would be an updated experience. Not the best time to buy a car. Let us know . Good luck.

Thanks for the suggestions. I wouldn’t want to get another Cherokee unless it was a redesigned model.

ive owned my 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude that is quite similar to your trailhawk and have mostly enjoyed it for the 8 years so far. the thing i guess i am afraid of is the transmission going bad since my warranty is up. But i plan on changing the fluid to extend the life of my transmission.the thing with the transaxle is that u cant change the filter without taking the entire thing out, so im only going to change the fluid. surprisingly this vehicle gave me less problems then other vehicles i owned including a Honda Civid (infamous for durability) . I had to replace the PCV valve that went bad prior to its 100K replace date and the bumper burned out from the black contaminated exhaust. transmission was giving issues till i found it was a bad fuse that fixed the problem so i have been real hard on the transmission heavy hauling and so far not the smoothest transmission but still kicking it. if i were to upgrade this in the coming years ide probably get a ford expedition.

You were smart letting go when you did because FCA discontinued the PTU’s along with the Cherokee. Now people wait months and months for replacements under warranty. And if it’s not drivable, that’s a big problem. People are resorting to used.

@ronyeahright9536 it's a daily driver I would love to take it off roading at some point. An yes some shops won't do it because the PTU is allways on back order. Mine took close to month to get finished just waiting on parts.

Its actually more of an 4WD biased vehicle. Even in Auto-mode, it has the rears engaged more often than not. If you want the more modern updates and don't really need to tow or actually utilize the offroad capabilities, i'd look into a Honda CRV. The 4Runner many keep suggesting still has ancient feeling tech and design, plus it is much larger than the Cherokee.

@CarGuy11

@@CarGuy11 Actually, the guy that did all the data logging to prove how often the rears were engaged did it on either a '15 or a '17. I guarantee if you pulled the F10 fuse you'd spin the fronts almost every take-off. The Jeep is programmed to have the rears engaged for take-offs and then disable once cruising speed is reached....then re-engaged upon deceleration.
