Based in Auckland (unfortunately)
I used to run a modified Range Rover as a club truck a few years ago. Had a brand new warn winch on it for about three years and never used it. Got myself in a right pickle one day while out with my brother down in Rotorua climbing the track at the back of Rainbow Mountain. Ended up out the side of the track with a 4' bank to climb, truck on a close to roll over angle and a heap of pine trees in my reverse out escape path. My brother had no hope in getting to me with his truck and I was at the point of sorting out which pine trees I was going to have to cut down to get out. My brother then pipes up saying "so I suppose you are going to have to use your winch now ......." Bugger me, I had forgotten I had a winch on the front! 15 minutes later we were on our merry way again. Felt like a right dick.
