we had this winch for only 2 years, and maybe filled the gas tank twice, it uses almost no fuel.

Recommendations from the crew...
-We worked closely with Ben Horan to create the smoothest pull possible
-Unique motor placement reduces the amount of chain to half from our earlier models. Less chain = less stretching = more ride time & less hassle
-Motor placement also allows the exhaust to blow out the back and reduces noise for the operator
-Very light and easy to move with the wheel kit and handle for toting. Takes just a minute to secure in the ground.
-One person can load and unload this winch easily when using the hitch.
