My buddy's wife had an escape for a short bit. I wasn't a fan but he said it was pretty zippy. He ended up dumping it because it had a crankshaft problem that Ford wouldn't fix. I'd imagine one in the 25k range would be fixed by now.
My friend that lived in Hawaii had a Dodge Caliber. It was pretty doggy ala your 84 s10. It looked decent but I don't think I'd ever drive one.
Quite frankly the new Cherokees look pretty good to me although I know nothing about anything jeep since all their mergers and crap.
