Anything Jeep isnt going to be your best ride. Far as quality and dependability it will be good though. When i was married we bought a Jeep Compass. It got 27mpg but rode like a log wagon. It had alot more room than my moms Ford Escape tho.
We have a 2008, We have never had on problem out of it except the sunroof, I would get one without that if I were you, my wife just had to have it lol, but besides that its been a great vehicle.
