Listener Feedback

First, Hope ya’ll are having a great Thanksgiving weekend.

Now, I think that Coy has a connection with Warn.

Coy, you mentioned that Warn doesn’t offer discounts on their products, but occasionally has package deals. ie: winch with recovery gear package.  Is Warn going to have one of those soon?  I want to go with one of their winches. 

Now for advice.  Thanks for answering my what do I need to overland question a couple of podcasts ago.  I purchased a 2008 JK unlimited for $1,500 and am beginning to start on the repairs and upgrades.  Winch and bumper are one of my first purchases.  I’m thinking that I need around a 10,000lb winch, or do I.  I’m here in Louisiana, but do plan on going to some hilly areas in the future.

Thanks for the Podcast and all the fun ya’ll have.

If a ride along pops up again, I don’t know what I’m doing wheeling, but wouldn’t mind being the brunt of your advice.
