I guess it depends on how long you intend to live.
If your under 25 and have arms like Hulk Hogan, forget the electric winch.
If your over 25 and a wimp like me....get it!
Here in Chicago area, where winds vary from hour to hour, this old man (60),
would have
had his arm fall off with out the winch.
Long term investment....
