Cool… but I can never see myself needing this. Not withstanding the trail damage, the only place, for me, this would ever be useful is on tight switchbacks.

I’m by no means a Luddite, but I’d rather just do a multi point turn. The idea of trusting that rear wheel to hold while the others are slipping sounds ridiculous on a shelf road switch back with a 2000 foot drop off.

There’s gotta be a use case for this. What am I missing?

Lol, just cause the Bronco has it? ;)

I am in same boat, I run JScan and am not too sure this would make me go to a Tazer. It's great that there is still innovative stuff coming out though.

Trail turn assist is somewhat gimmicky. Falls roughly at same level as headlight wipers or paddle shifters on a CVT transmission.

Did you watch the video? I can fully see how it could be useful. I don't think it's gimmicky at all. I have never used it but I can think of a quite a few times where I would have for sure.

OK, I can see how getting a 4door to have the turning radius that is closer to a 2door can be helpful. ;)

I like Casey's videos so he sold me.
