Let's start with low hanging branches. Might I recommend a good helmet and goggles? I would also recommend a deadman switch like on my boat, just in case you catch a little too much air on one of those jumps and you find yourself bucked off your Bronco.

I'm also thinking the right woman(or man) could operate this hands free.

Why not just go full remote and bluetooth an app for your iPad/tablet. Then you can just get out and spot yourself. When you get caught with your beer you can deny being "behind the wheel".

Heck, why go at all? Have your bronco go out and wheel, you can stay home and direct on the couch. Wouldn't want to put yourself "out" or anything.

At least it's a manual.

Brilliant!

Just patent the VR thing a magigs and stay home. Sounds like a job for X Box or play station. Let’s go virtual off roading with a special chair that bucks and maybe a powerful fan for the top down ride!! Perfect!

I happen to know, I mean, I heard that you can drive a Tahoe while sitting on the center console sticking your head out the sunroof.

Funny stuff I'm familiar with sitting on the roof of a mustang ll (through the sunroof) and steering with my feet as I idle 20mph through my small town. The good ol days haha

Just earlier today, I was thinking, "gosh, I wish the Bronco had MORE electronics and sensors"

Patents are one thing. DOT approval is something else entirely. But then again, does the DOT have any say for off road use only features?
