Damn, all I've been able to teach mine is "stay". I just ran out and tried
"roll over" but it just stares at me.....

It just goes to show you one can get any vehicle stuck even the infamous
HMMWV. I did that this winter in CT during one of the ice/snow storms we
had. I hit a large patch of ice hidden under the snow while off roading - a
melt from previous storms - and I wasn't going anywhere. All four wheels
spinning freely. Good thing the M1038 comes with a winch (and that I found
and installed one for it last summer). Talk about embarrassing if I had to
make a call to get my green machine towed out of the woods!!!
