I have a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee with pad covered Thule Aeroblades and love the setup. The only issue I've had is a electrical issue that I figured out was the TIPM that went out. $250 and an easy fix.
The only thing I wish is that I would have waited a little longer and found a 4WD with the V8. This truck is tough, capable, and really, REALLY comfortable to drive long distances. I just miss the sound and feel of a V8 and want that 4WD for "just in case" situations.
Dream rig right here (wrong color though):
