I can't speak to the unwieldlyness but you don't have to worry about the cable over-wrapping and binding as you do with those tools that spool the cable.
From the pics I've seen, you spool out the 60' of cable, hook one end to the vehicle and secure the tool to an anchor, thread the cable into the unit, and wiggle the handle. The cable is pulled through the winch "hand over hand" style. It will also reverse to allow you to slowly drop a vehicle down a steep incline. I don't know if the come-a-long style will let you do that.
