A: You can't go wrong with either winch. Both series have their positives so it depends on what you are looking for and how you plan to use the winch. We have a lot of customers who still buy the M series because those were the first winches on the market and have proven their worth. Then we get a lot of customers who want the new technology. It really depends on the end user.
