I have experience with both vehicles. I have a 2006 CRV that I use as a toad. It is easy to get in and out of, fairly quiet on the inside, gets 22mpg and the seats are pretty comfortable. The only thing is the battery will go dead due to the key having to be turned to accessory after a day or two. I have to start it after about 300 miles and run it through the gears. Not a big deal, just takes a minute while you get out to stretch your legs. The jeep you can tow as long as you want without touching it. My dad has a 2001 jeep liberty and he isn't in love with it either. It is uncomfortable, somewhat hard to get in and out of and gets 13mpg on a good day. He had to replace two of the ignition coils which were causing a stumbling someone else described on this thread. I have driven the jeep for up to about 6 hours at a time, and my back was sore afterwords. I didn't like it at all, but that's just me. I'm 6'3 and 230#. I love the CRV and wouldn't trade it.
