I was almost very badly rear-ended by a JK on Hell's Revenge because the guy became dependent on hill descent control and then forgot to engage it. He went careening down the hill toward me. I saw him only because I had my rear view cam on and was watching him. I moved to the right and he missed me by about a foot.Some of the gimmicks are great, like off-road +. The hill descent control scared the hell out of me while descending a steep off camber trail, it slammed on the brakes at the worst time and made my front end dive and rear end get light, real light. I haven’t used it since.
There's no electronic substitute for learning the skills of off-road driving. I've got a manual JLUR and there is nothing that it does without driver input. I'm fine with that.
