Actually Ive heard they are the Ferrari of winches lmao
No.
Can’t tell if you’re being facetious or not.

I have a badlands 12k as well as many friends, the 9k sucks, they work great for what we do with them and as long as you don’t use that stupid fuse block thing they come with they work fine. If you’re looking at cheaper winches I would recommend them over others. If you’re looking for high end and faster cable speed, keep looking.
