TOMR:
I bought the cheapo 2000# winch ($50) and you are right that a straight
pull of a vehicle up any kind of serious incline will most likely not work. I
pulled a 2500# Suzuki Samauri onto my trailer and it barely got it up the
ramp. The solution is to buy the HF snatch block ($6) and double your
pull force. Also make sure your battery and cables can handle the 60+
amps it will draw.
