I'll give you what you paid for it. Drive it up to Alaska, I'll give you the cash, and I'll pay for your one-way ticket flight on the 'red-eye' express, from Los Anchorditch, to SeaTac. You can hitch-hike from there.
Seriously, a 4X4=$X$. Period. However what I did was to get a cheap economy car for summer, and work on the XJ at the same time.., to prepare it for mostly bad weather in the winter. Sometimes I go for summer excursions where the ecocar can't go. What did I do to the XJ this past summer: 2" Old Man Emu stock lift, coils/leafs, OME NitroSport shocks, replaced stock front bumper with an ARB Bull Bar 'Roo bumper w/WarnM8000 winch, rust control; body, and chassis, removed the rear sway bar, installed front sway bar disconnects, replaced front oil seal, cleaned out old anti-freeze fluids, replacing new, with distilled water, replaced tie-rod ends, Kevin's sourced track bar, and associated parts, steering box brace, (went to alignment shop to tweek to perfection). Installed CIBIE headlights, with custom harness. Last year's summer; Replaced wind shield, fixed headliner, driver's side floor plate area fix, replaced all seats with better used ones, (not from an accident involved vehicle), cleaned engine compartment, replaced spark plugs, wires, cap, and rotor, installed engine heater for winters, complete rear brake job, including ER brake adjustment, front and rear propeller shaft u-joints, replaced XJ roof rack for one from an old Cherokee, model 17, replaced a few small bulbs, one cracked tail light lense, obtained new replacement headlight bezels, Bridgestone Blizzack studless winter tires.
So, I figure that if I keep going along this-a-way, I will end up with a dependable new vehicle, with cheaper recycled, and new costly parts, lol. In other words, I put a small down payment on a versatile vehicle, and I am saving monthly dollars, (what could be considered as monthly payments on a new vehicle).., lol, in a XJ piggy bank, and each summer I break the XJ piggy bank, make the 'new' changes, plus the slight mods., from the lump sum saved for said purchases. Next summer, I intend to get an extra set of wheels, 29" mud tires, small trailer. Some of us can afford to have an XJ done quick time, but some of us others must save up, and prioritize upgrades. Consider your XJ as a type of project, and you will have many happy hours driving a $X$, I mean 4X4 box on wheels. Did you know that Canadians drive on square tires, and wheels? True.., saw it on South Park once, or twice. Must be they do a lot of square rock crawling!
