Believe me, you'll want the expensive winches if you plan on using it any. The cheaper ones get a bit of mud in them and they break or jam. The motor doesn't last on them either. Warn makes the best from what I have seen. They are great if you go off-roading often, as they will save you a lot of time (no more dragging out the come-alongs, straps and chains). Especially if you go alone a lot. Make sure that you buy one rated for your vehicles weight and have it attached directly to the frame (some people like to attach a hitch to the front and use that, so the winch can be removed). Also, make sure you get a good winch cover.
