    They’re half the price of even the basic X or M line of winches, so I’m assuming they’re made in China. Do any of you have any real-world experiences with them?

    "...2-door Jeeps and lighter SUVs for everyday pulls". I understand the terminology, but it still makes me chuckle that I would be in a situation everyday where I needed to use my winch.

    IF it is a Warn product, I'd expect it to be decent.

    I have that same winch on my trailer and love it. Much better than a Harbor freight winch.

    I have a VR8000 on my CJ6. Excellent winch. I use it regularly and I have been really happy with it. No issues.

    I have friends that also have Warn Winch on their rigs and they don't have any complaints about it.
