Now you know what to expect at any rate. Yes, they get harder but certainly not impossible to steer especially when moving. Just don't panic and all will be fine.

I can vouch for this I had a serpentine belt snap in a CR-V before and have driven older cars even though I'm super young and also had a Mazda MPV stall on a highway once, it's not that hard to turn and although it's disconcerting to some I feel anyone could do that all day without strain.

I think power steering was designed for heavier modern vehicles as technology progressed but I'm wondering if maybe in the future someone will come along and say make manual steering on a sports car an option for less money, I doubt it.

There is a lot to be said for a nice manual rack and pinion steering system in a sporty car. I do like the 86 steering though since with the electric assist you get the feel of a manual system with the ease of power. A hydraulic system sucks up a lot of the road feel.

Under the dash, in the sun, blocked by other things, with no vents blowing on it. Gonna get bloody hot even with the air on.

I often do dumb shit like clutch in and kill the engine (not all the way! Don't lock the column!) just to see what the brakes and steering feel like when shit goes sideways. Find an empty street and try it. Then practice bump-starting the engine.

True, I know but I've driven the shit out of mine. Tried to find the limit last summer. Couldn't get it to complain no matter how hard I beat on it.

I have no doubt that when it happens suddenly it takes you by surprise and seems far worse then it is though.
