"Yah, robot mule!"
So here's an idea. GURPS Ultratech has the robot mule (p79-80), which can be commanded and teleoperated.
Now, could the wheeled "mule" have reigns so someone with Riding (Equines) is more confortable with the "controls"? I like the idea. |

just remember there probably not much in the way of shock absorbers in the robot mule's drive-train the main issue will be acceleration control |

As for accelearation control you can also put sensors in the body to respond to pressure. no reason you cant retrofit a robo mule to respond to all riding stimuli just like a regular one.

Re: "Yah, robot mule!"
Yeah but most Robo mules are controlled with Teamster from the Wagon seat which can have shock absorbers 8)
