    I’m planning to get a winch bumper and was wondering if anyone had recommendations for a winch. Going on my 2017 3rd Gen. thoughts anyone?

    Welcome !

    I have 2 Warns. One is over 15 years old and the other is just over 10 and still going strong.

    I run steel cable because it’s basically maintenance free. I recommend a cable blanket for safety.

    Synthetic line is popular and light weight but prone to breakage due to maintenance requirements. It doesn’t hold up as well to weather and adverse environments. If it does break it is usually not an issue but many people still run blankets.
