Coming from crew cab f-150 that "turns like a rhinoceros ", is it possible to use the trail turn assist to get into a tight parking space at the mall?
I guess my question is, can I use this feature on pavement without screwing up my rig?

Flat spot on the Homer is what worries me.

To answer this honestly: It’s only meant to be utilized on surfaces that allow slip (like sand). On a high traction surface worst case you’ll make a ton of noise and scrub away rubber, worst case you’ll have binding or high forces acting against mechanical components, brakes, etc.

But really, we all know a whole bunch of us are just gonna send it.
