I've got a milemarker 12K winch but have never used it. Good price if you compare to others... Not much to a winch really though. If you keep it clean and dry (ish) it will do the job. I have a cheap winch on my ATV(4,500 lb on a Thundercat) and it has lasted through a lot of use... Pulling atv's, utv's, dually trucks, tractors, trees... The Warn I had first was only used once or twice before it broke. Granted it was smaller but Warn compared to Promark... If the full size rig winches are as good you might find them worth the money? Here's a link

Maybe someday I'll actually get that milemarker mounted to something and see if it holds up? LOL!
