Well, I have seen numbers like $500 cross country to ship.
Personally I get between 10 to 14 mpg depending on speed and headwind... So let's say 13 mpg ave at 70 mpg (drops quickly above that)... now 5000 miles round trip would be 385 gallons of gas and current national average is $2.28 ($3 here in wonderful CA) so that's $880 in fuel round trip.
Now let's look at time, 5000 mikes/70 mph is 72h of driving. If you drive 12h a day, that's 6 days round trip, so assuming you are employed you burn 6 days of vacation to get there vs 2 if you fly... So 4 days of work at say $20/hr is $640 you would have made working...
$880 + $640 = $1,520. So if you find a round trip flight for $520 +1,000 to ship the jeep it literally costs the same. The more you make over $20/hr or the less vacation you have means the more worth it that it is. That's not counting road meals, hotels on the road, etc.
Just my opinion.
