Thinking of getting my first winch for my 400 Kodiak. Looking around there are options. WARN seems to be more expensive than others, but it seems to be a better choice. I would rather spend the money once then get a junk winch.
Is WARN the best? Or at least will it be a good winch to get?

My Polaris/Warn winch that came with my Sportsman died on me after only a few uses.
The Grizzly also came with a Yamaha winch thats also made by warn and is good so far.
I never replace the winch since I always ride with others who have a winch.
You only need one guy in a group to have the winch ,is my cheap thinking. LOL
Even when your stuck in a deep swamp hole its easy for the other guy to throw you his hook rather then you try to get at yours.

Thanks Andy.
I was looking at the Vantage 2000 winch for my ATV. It would more than pull me out of any swamp I could for see myself ever getting stuck into, and it would do the other light duty weight wise I would want it to. What else can you tell me about that winch?
Also, what kind of deal can you do? Best I've seen is $149.99 after rebate with free shipping for the WAR-89020 model.

I know that the synthetic rope is more flexible than the wire. But other than that (which it really doesn't matter to me), why do you reccomend the rope over the wire?

I've had Warn winches on 3 quads so far including the one I own now. Had one minor issue and Warn sent me the part quickly and it worked fine after that. They have great customer service.
