So those times I used my four ton "come along" to get un-stuck I was hallucinating? (2 tons single pull, 4 tons double)

I agree that in most cases a powered winch would be better, and the cheap little come alongs that you get a Wal-wart are accidents waiting to happen, but a good quality "come along" used properly can be very effective.
