Tell me what you think of this new winch.

 

It's sweet, but too bad it won't fit in my ARB.

 

Thats pretty cool, both a compressor and winch in one. I wonder how much it costs and if it will fit our trucks-it looks huge.

 

$1400 bucks?!! I'd rather have a winch and compressor separate.

Comparing apples to apples, where are you going to get a 12,000lb warn winch and a 12V compressor that can match the 5 CFM flow rate aT 90psi for less than $1400?

The 12,000lb normal winch from warn is $1300 (at the site you posted), and even a top of the line Viair 550C can't match 5CFM @90psi and it costs $400-500. To rival the output you'd probably have to go to a Oasis compressor and those are around $1000.

This thing seems pretty cool.

 

Thanks for the opinions I think it looks a little big but the concept is pretty cool. Price is more than I want to pay for the winch but Robinhood makes some good points. What does everyone else think of this thing?

 

It really depends on what your needs are. For your truck, nah you don't need it. Like runnerSR5 alludes to, a 8000-9000 lbs winch and a decent air compressor will work. But if you're wheeling every weekend and you don't like to sit around waiting to air up giant tires, it looks pretty good.

 

If you use your truck for work its handy as well, I know alot of contractors could find it handy to have a system like that-specially if they worked all new construction and had to drive onto the lots.

 

Huh, I just figured out there are two versions, a 9500lb and a 12000lb. But at OKoffroad, they're both the same price?

That's awesome. Wonder how much it weighs.
