Winches
Any opinions  on winches for my Ex and F-350?
What about hydrolic units?
What about the ol' electrics?
Is one better than another? Why?
Is there one that can be hooked up to various vehicles at different times? For example a non-attached portable unit?
What about the ratings? 9000 #? 16000 #?
How does one determine which winch to use?
Do you need second battery? Will a winch drain a battery quicky and leave you stranded?
Do you need to keep the engine running so you don't?
Do you need a more powerful alternator than stock?
