as far as the need for power steering, it's not needed on most cars, but what most people fail to think about or mention is that when you shut off your angine and lose the PS pump you have to fight the PS system to rurn the wheel, which takes significantly more energy than if you had an actual manual rack-n-pinion steering set up, since you are the one pumping the fluid, instead of the engine.
