Got my truck really stuck today...just about slid down a snowy embankment into a creek. Friend drove me home... brought the TJ and JK out to side pull while I front pulled with the truck winch.
JK has a POS something or another battery and a HF 9500 winch.
TJ has a Warn M8000 and a Optima.
In the middle of the recovery the Warn winch on the TJ started smoking and I checked the battery voltage and it was at 4... wasn't running either Jeep while winching...killed too many alternators doing that.
That Optima is just a flat out POS.
JK and the HF winch and POS battery didn't hiccup once.
