As in doing a similar grand tour? For Jupiter & Saturn, it feels especially silly since they have already had orbiter follow-up missions (Galileo & Juno for Jupiter, Cassini for Saturn).

In the cases of Uranus and Neptune, a lot of the mission proposals (including the planetary decadal survey are also for orbiters rather than flybys. Trident is something of an exception.

They've done various Moon and/or Mars missions, but nothing to the outer solar system.
