I drove a 94 jeep grand cherokee for 15 years until I crashed it last winter. I currently drive a 02 grand cherokee. For the same years, a used grand cherokee would be a lot cheaper to buy than a used 4runner (compare years and prices on craigslist). However, reliability will definitely be an issue with a Jeep. The engines are very good, but the transmissions and differential will more often than not will require rebuilding after about 200k km. And things like water pump, fuel pump, leaky a/c will, cat converter will break down over time and require replacing. If you want to consider a jeep, find out if these things have been rebuilt or replaced; it will always be a matter of time or miles. Also, I would suggest that you find one with a selec-trac transfer case which are more durable and allow you to switch from 2 wheel drive to part or full-time 4 wheel drive.
