1. I would attach it to my belt buckle and IF I ever flew out of my Jeep for any reason I could pull myself back.
2. Attach it to my garbage cans to pull them (metal) up my 75 foot driveway....@0300 😎
3. Pull up unwanted shrubs...(not mine ..my neighbors..sneaky..)....
I'm done...can you tell I have too much time on my hands....?

I just use my Jeep on unwanted shrubs and sneaky neighbors. :LOL:


...As for the winch; I remember a snow bank on a mountain road, I has a smaller winch on the rear bumper for game and anchoring in a few instances. Thinking back, quite a few other people were glad I had one. Not that many time for myself really.🤔

Just ask @cosine he knows!
Just winch-pulled out over twenty 15 yr old Boxwoods that took a bad turn during our Arctic blast over the winter. Every once in a while I work smarter, not harder :)

Probably tell people that don't know its purpose how useful it is...even though it would probably be useless :CWL::CWL::CWL:

So winches aren't for clotheslining Priuses into convertibles?
Apparently I'm doing it wrong.

Does anybody else use their snatch block for an improvised zip line? Yeah I know, way too short. :LOL:

Funny I just performed my first recovery for these two girls on my road trip last week but just used a recovery rope that came with the Jeep. The wife and I almost got stuck in about 2 feet of ice hard pack but was able to reverse Aired down in 4 Lo.

If had a winch I would have continued going forward in the 2 feet of hard pack ice :)
