My personal preference, and again, is my opinion, is to avoid them like the plague,

lot of places don't accept them now too

just get a decent rope and shackles, much safer in my book

They do work and they are very impressive when they work but when they go wrong they can be fatal.

Don't need them for a Suzuki :D

If used correctly and with suitable recovery points, I.e. not the eye on the front of an SJ and with rated shackles then they are awesome bits of recovery gear. A gentle tug with a kerr is better than a tow with a normal rope.
