[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 437164, member: 412"] Post-'97 Flood all around Grand Forks County there were carp in drainage ditches that became trapped........ Moose guide in Alberta only had the winch on his ATV for loading moose. He'd park the ATV up against the pickup bumper, sling the cable over the hood/windshield/headache rack, put a block of wood on top of the headache rack for the cable so it didn't scrape into the metal rack, and pull moose onto the flatbed. '08 spring bear hunting in MT. I had an 8K # Warn for my pickup, receiver hitches and power @ both ends of the pickup. So, of course, we can go anywhere, right? Ended up getting stuck on a very narrow road. Used the winch going back and forth between the front and rear receivers to turn the pickup around and drive out. When I got rid of that pickup, I gave the winch to my father in law and swore to never have another winch on another pickup of mine. The reason not to have another was simple, NOT having one MIGHT stop me from doing stuff that stupid in the future. I've since been minorly hindered in the odd surprise hard snow-drift, but nothing I couldn't dig out of in a reasonable amount of time. [/QUOTE]
