I would love to get a "Wench" for the TB... afraid my wife wouldn't allow it, though. LOL.
I DON'T care what my GMT360 was designed to do, I care about what it can do!

From one wife to yours, tell her that you need a winch for: 1.) Pulling yourself out of tricky situations instead of calling for help and potentially spending hundreds of dollars (if not thousands depending on location) in aid/towing. 2.) Having peace of mind that you are carrying an essential piece of recovery equipment (after all, is a winch any different than a sky lift for an offroader?). and 3.) You now have the capability to pull others (including family) out of tricky situations and save them lots of money, especially helpful in snow country!

I think my wife would understand the need for a winch. The OP originally put "Wench" in his list of future mods, then edited his post to read winch... Hence, my couple of posts afterwards.

I must need more coffee. It seriously took until now to realize what a "wench" was.....either that or I spend too much time around Southerners who actually pronounce "winch" as "wench". Hmmm.As told by the other half: Build Thread
