My family has had 3 with the 4.0, one 4.7HO, and one 3.7. Never a problem with any of them. None were taken past 100K miles though. The 3.7 is almost there. Everybody knows you couldn't kill the 4.0. I don't know of much of a reputation for any of the other engines. In my opinion, any vehicle could have trouble past 100K miles. That's not so much a bad thing. It's just a good thing for vehicles that can go well past that mark.
