   I've looked at these off and on. Have several cable come-a-longs and a   
   larger winch good for a couple tons. But they all use cables which have   
   their stretchy drawbacks...   
      
   Have you been able to determine if some of the more affordable versions   
   are built well enough by now? The reviews for the HF models aren't good   
   enough in my opinion. The high end models are a bit more than I'd   
   like to spend with no particular use in mind, other than a future   
   problem solver. The 1 to 2 ton range would be the likely candidates.   
      
   Just some names to watch for deals on both new and used for when   
   I'm feeling flush🙂
