only rated for 10k? and you plan on using it to pull cars out of ditches? IT may do the job on little hondas that are high centered, but anything else Id be very careful with. a stuck vehicle can easily double/triple its own weight. I cut back highly on recovering random people. There is just so much liability in it nowadays. The second from last time I did so right after it I realized someone could have been seriously injured. The car was almost end over end on a steep ditch with an elderly lady in the vehicle. I wanted to swap another person out so she wasnt in the vehicle when I put strain on the line but we couldnt. When I broke through to pavement I could have easily given her whiplash
More like people in snow drifts. Or myself if I slide off a road in snow.
Ditches I'll leave for professionals.
