Amazing car for your use case. 327ftlb of torque and reasonably sporty suspension so it's pretty fun.
I sold it because I do 50 miles per day on the freeway and wasn't comfortable with the small size anymore (e.g. Traffic going 65 to 0 on 92 bridge and pickups needing to go to the shoulder to avoid hitting me) but for a short, low speed commute, I think it's the perfect car
Any of the lightly used 80miles range class electrics are cheap and should be considered for this use case
Or honestly, keep your Jeep. Especially if it's 4x4... perfect stuff hauler and Tahoe car

I'm too old school for EVs...2019'resolution will be to be more open about the inevitable shift to electric!
Unfortunately Jeep is not 4x4...and it has one of those 5.7 HEMI engines. Every time it drizzles it scares me much more than the F80 coming out of a turn!
