I want steering like the old RC cars... you turn the wheel full lock, and wait for the wheels to catch up! How fun would that be at 75MPH?!

I like EAS, but I'm just not sure I'd enjoy being "disconnected" from the steering assembly. Unless EAS is literally a motor or actuator assisting by adding torque, but leaving the steering connected in traditional sense, I'm not sure I'd want it.
