My Canon 17-85mm f/4-5.6 died and was all I knew. Opinions on 24-105mm f/4L IS?

I'd look at stuff like Tamron 17-50 2.8 or Canon 17-55 IS (or 15-85 IS) rather than the 24-105 which doesn't go all that wide and is, on average, not of the sharpest L lenses although it's OK and ok even on the edges on APS-C cameras but it is $$ and not that wide so not sure it makes the best sense for APS-C unless you tend to shoot mostly intermediate long.
