"Stuck in the Woods? Subaru owners, what aftermarket winches are worth the dough?"

[MAMAHTEHOK]

Just got back from a camping trip with my Subaru Forester and I'm reminded that my stock 4wd system isn't quite cutting it for getting stuck in the woods. Been eyeing aftermarket winches and was wondering if anyone's got any experience with the Warn Zeon or Smittybilt X20. Have any of you guys had success with either or got a different brand you'd recommend?

"Just threw a Warn VR8 on my '18 Outback and it's been a beast for recovering from sketchy terrain. Never had any issues with it and it's been a lifesaver on multiple occasions. Highly recommend it if you're in the market for a reliable winch."

"Lol I'm not a Subaru owner, but I've heard great things about the Fab Frawler 9.5k lb winch. From what I've researched, it's a beast and worth every penny if you plan on off-roading extensively."

"Hey guys, I've had good luck with the Warn Zeon series myself. Easy to install and reliable, which is key when you're out in the wilderness. Has anyone else tried the BOS winch? Thoughts?"
