    Well, it is just like playing a video game. If your into that sort of thing. I prefer a good ole steering wheel or levers myself. But I'm kinda old school anyway.

    It took me 2 phone calls to 2 different people to figure out "twist" the joystick to get a newer grader to articulate the rear wheels.

    It was like a light bulb went off when I twisted it.
