... or using lockers in corners and digging ruts, or not using lockers attempting climbs and digging pockets.

It's up to the driver to respect the trails with whatever features equipped. Getting all judgey on features you don't have... short sighted.

Not sure if I missed this or not. I doubt I ever have a need to use it as I agree it is a gimmick and can ruin trails. but does this work with tazer lite on a sport? If so. How to access it?

I'm more confused by the number of people who watch shill clickbait channels like casey and trail recon.

Yep. I’m old fashioned. All the gimmicks the whiz kids are able to program sure seem fun, but what about actually having skill? These “because we can” upgrades, like self-driving (self-guessing) cars, are dumbing down young drivers. Sort of like not knowing how to use a telephone or how to read a gas gauge.

It's not real if it was mentioned by one of those two? Interesting.

That's what the old timers said about the automatic transmission back in the day.

The older generation will always complain about the tech the new generation is getting "too comfortable with" all the while forgetting it was their complaining and engineering that made those upgrades/enhancements happen...and the cycle will continue.

Ruin trails? Yeah I don't think so. There is lot of wheelspin in offroading. Turn assit keeps the inside wheel mostly stationary. The only way I see it tearing up trails is people doing donuts to try it out. No need to go environazi!

Never needed turn assist and would never use it, the wrangler has over the last 25 years (for me) has been thin enough to handle the turns on all the trails I've been on. That bronco is rather a fat thing and for it, it should be fine. If Jeep really want to compete with the Bronco maybe it should allow the swaybar disconnect on load, now that will be the Tazer that I buy if it works for that.
So, I am having a hard time wrapping my head around the "disconnect on load" thing. Is it for a situation where you're offroading by accident? All of a sudden, you have a tire 6" higher than you were expecting before you drove into this obstacle? Normally when people are offroading, isn't that done before hand anyway?
It's cool to see but after the novelty wore off, it doesn't make much sense that it's this great option.

maybe it's for when you accidentally drive up on the curb at the mall.
