I use my machine for all kinds of work around my property. My winch has been a lifesaver on a number of occasions. Most notably when I had to recover washed out bridge materials out of a creekbed. I'll use it to pull large timber or debris out of an area that I can't access with the Rhino itself.
So on a work machine it's priceless. On a trail riding machine I could see using it for vehicle recovery as well. So overall, I'd say regardless of how you use your Rhino, It's always good to have a decent winch.
