Is it necessary to have a winch on a Nissan Patrol?

I'm planning on going off-roading with my Nissan Patrol and I've been told that having a winch is a must. But is it really necessary or just a nice-to-have? Any advice on the matter?

Yes, it is essential to have a winch on a Nissan Patrol for off-roading. You never know when you might get stuck in a tricky situation and a winch can be a lifesaver.

It depends on the type of off-roading you do. If you mostly stick to well-maintained trails, then a winch may not be necessary. But if you love exploring tough terrains, then definitely get a winch.
