just bought one of these today, i figured for 70 bucks and 12 more for a 1 year extended 100% no questions asked dont care what you do with it warranty, its worth the money......i dont care what people say about Harbor Freight, i buy most of my stuff from there and get the warranty, if it screws up just take it back and no questions asked they give you a new one......

yes they do come in camo, a woman wants to sell me a trailer for 300 bucks, pretty decent trailer too, just needs tires(mobile home tires) and boards, which is nothing, so i plan to mount it to the front of the trailer so in case i break the dodge pulling it (it will be a while before it even pulls) i will be able to load it and drag it home with the suburban, until then i am going to build a reciever mount and bolt it to that, for a total of 82 bucks if i use it once to get some that is stuck out or load a junk car it was worth every single dime......

Cool....a friend blew up a $499 Warn on his quad and replaced it with a temporary Harbor Freight ATV winch that cost like $59 on sale......been over a year and he still hasn't put the new Warn back on.

They're a pretty good winch, actually.
