I don't think I've seen a coupon for 1, but I'll keep my eye out..

That is the same reason why I got mine..... Its there if I need it, not to go out and recover people every day... And Its nice that I can go out by myself and know if something ever did happen that I could get out. And yeah, just sign up on harborfreight online to get better deals and better booklets sent to you.

Hey lifted97 if you don't mind my asking where did you get the mount? How much $? and do they make them for the 2004 thru 2008 trucks? Thanks

I was thinking about getting that same winch. Where did you find the coupon for it? Harborfreight has it for $399 now

Ever since they came out, Harbor Freight has been pimping them in the bigger offroad magazines like Offroad, Fourwheeler, and 4wheel on one of the page ads full of coupons- I've seen them priced with coupon between $249 and $349 depending on the size.

Truckin' probably has the coupons too.
