There are dozens of Cherokee XJs with plows running around Minne-snow-ta....how many plow trucks of any kind in Sacremento, California?
If you're plowing commercial lots, that's one thing
But for driveways and sidewalks the XJ is a perfect fit. Small, narrow, and maneuverable. Several manufacturers make suitable plows.
If it's just for your hobby farm, I'd consider a Sno-Way ST22. It's lightweight (300 lbs) and has hydraulic downpressure. They make them with 6'8" or 7'6" clear polycarbonate blades.
If your needs are more robust, Western and Meyer both make small (~6.5') steel plows that you see hung on XJs.
Today, the consensus seems to be the Blizzard 680/720 series
A quick Google turned up several discussions. Here's one:
