Landrover & bus was very impressive.

But i did notice that none used a damning device (eg towel or a blanket ) hang across the cable to take away some of the energy should something fail.

thats bus looks like its runnign safari diffs :lol:

whats the point in having a winch if your vehicle is to heavy to be able to recover itself off trees

if that was anymore stuck you could tear out a good sized tree trying to winch it
