    True. Especially longbois.

    It's always fun seeing how the advantage shifts based on the obstacle.

    Plenty of room to mount. The one I linked had plenty of space with all the extra crap under my hood

    Yeah, doesn't always help when you're high centered.

    Edit: this was the result of poor decision making. We can't blame A-TRAC for my mistakes.

    Someone offered. But, I wanted to exercise the winch. :D

    My first car had a phonograph in the trunk. And, I had to start it with a hand crank, and manually adjust the timing while I drove. Also, it had wooden tires.
