Including purchase price on a 98 XJ bought in 2002, roughly $25,000 Canadian (so about $1500 US) :o
So about $14,000 after purchase.
Everything costs about double up here...
 
I thought the exchange rate was $1.30CA to $1.00US?

OK, I was going to say not that much but I did some quick adding and realized that in the last 12 months I spent at least $4K on the jeep. Man that stuff adds up real quick! It doesn't include some money that I recovered when I sold some of hte stuff that I replaced.

My '90 I have $1200 'documentable' dollars into - incoluding tax, title, tag and tuneup.

Amen Brother!!!

93 XJ, bought for $9000 Bone Stock in 97, from original owner, & haven't stopped spending since.
 
$2500 in modifications (at last count)
 
Free...
everything is either a tax write-off or "for demo purposes only". the perk of me being a vendor...
in all seriousness. I can't even begin to figure it out because to much has changed...
 
Approximately a little under 4000. Bought my 87 for 1100 about a year ago as a daily driver/winter rig and have put some money into repairs, a moderate lift, some larger tires, a winch/bumper setup, and some skidplates. Most of my stuff I bought second-hand, with the exception of two of the tires, the lift, and some of the repair items.
