I don't really think a Cherokee is any less reliable than a TJ, same engine, same dash, same computer, same electronics, basically everything's the same except the body and the wranglers have an actual frame which is a huge plus. From 97-06 the computer did change a few times I think. Newer is usually better.

But if your having issues with yours and you don't want to keep workin on it selling it sometimes is the best course of action.
 
I believe 01 had some engine changes. First year of distributorless ignition. Think there was a cylinder head and exhaust manifold change in 01 too. No other major cosmetic changes until 03.
 
I'm a JT with a TJ! I'm very reliable, so yeah, a TJ is reliable.
 
I'd go with any TJ post 2000. 2000-2006 had coil rail. I'm a big fan of the coil rail instead of the distributor. Also the post 2000 I belive it is has a 10hp increase I've been told.
