Unfortunately this is an impossible question to answer accurately. As with every vehicle out there, the factory builds some a little better then others, then different owners drive differently, maintain differently, etc...

My WJ sees more abuse on the trail then one owned by a laid back old man who only drives on the street and drives like it's Sunday every day, and is meticulous about maintenance.

However, it probably sees a lot less abuse then one primarily driven by a young driver who likes to cruise town, get into stoplight battles with whoever he rolls up next to at the red light, and only does maintenance when something goes wrong...

So to answer...how long will it last?

As long as the average automobile from around the same time.

Jeep's existing Cherokee has already proved a big hit with those who would otherwise look to a Land Rover Discovery or something Japanese. It is nice jeep it will last longer.
