I have owned a lot of trucks with front pto winches over the last 50 years. I have used those winches far more times pulling someone else out of trouble than myself.
One time I used the front winch to turn my truck 180 degrees in 3' of snow by pulling at a slight angle several times until I was going the opposite direction. I would not recommend that on hard ground or in mud ruts.
