Hi-Lift actually makes a black one but it is a little cheaper version and not rated to be as durable. Personally I kind of like the red. You can use these for many purposes including jacking up your truck body, jacking a tire out of mud/sand, hand winching, and even as an expander, like a fireman's "Jaws of Life". This one is rated at 7000 lbs (3 1/2 tons) of lift. There are lots of attachments available.
Personally, I haven't had to use it yet, but I just got it about a month ago.
