I have an 08 and it has never needed one repair to this day.
As far as your fuel mileage....what did you expect with a 4.0 4x4?????
Don't go by some of the 22+ mpg claims here for the 4.0, 14-18 mpg is realistic.
You are just unlucky as far as the amount of repairs......definately not typical.
Trading in a vehicle you just paid off is about the worst financial decision one can possibly make......you will take a beating.
