I run a Warn 9.5ti and I wouldnt trade it for anything. I think the cheaper winches are great for the average wheeler that might get stuck in a small mud hole once a year. If you are using it to assist you in climbing waterfalls and your life is depending on it then I think your better off spending a little extra$$. Just my 2cents

 

I agree completely!! If I was doing extreme trails I would def look into a high end warn...for the type of trails I do most likely will never use it...but having it there is better then an empty winch slot in the bumper

 

You're slipping, bro!
80% isn't anywhere near my expectations of you.
Some of us have to offset the the dumb-@$$ed and you're clearly not pulling your weight.

 

hmm nice article.. i was looking into the mile marker si9500 but i think i might end up going with the superwinch epi9.0.. the superwinch is actually a little cheaper at 4wheel parts and the superwinch seems to be a much better winch..
