Answer
Hi Richard,

I'd stay below 3000 rpm on the shift.  On my Land Rover, I generally shift away between 2100 and 2500rpm.  Your Jeep may be different but at least this will give you a 'ballpark' figure to try out.  

So stay below the 3200rpm that your friend mentioned. Eventually, you'll feel and hear the best time for your vehicle...as you get use to it.

Best of luck,

JohnMc
