We have a 2015 Grand Cherokee that has been great to us. We bought it new, and it now has about 34k on it. My wife's new job has her driving around a lot, so the miles are piling on, but the car is actually pretty efficient for what it is.
Yes, I wish we got the V8 too, but the V6 does its job and when properly equipped, can tow over 6000 pounds. Yes, the shifter is stupid, but you get used to it after a full week of use. If it bothers you, the 2017 got a normal shifter so you can probably find one lightly used for around 35k.
I would buy one again, but next time it would be a used one (depreciation in the first two years is killer) and I would search for a V8. These cars are a dime a dozen. If you have one in mind, get on the internets and search. I'm sure you'll find the right car. It really is a great truck.
Also, they look badass with spacers and JK Rubicon wheels, which I plan to do to ours:
