I agree with weather spotter on the electric steering, it doesn't use much power. In fact, that is one of the reasons car makers are all moving that direction, because you can get a few extra mpg.
I like the underhood simplification (fewer hoses etc) of the electric steer cars, but converting from hydraulic to electric assisted steering is probably not worth the effort. I have seen a lot of people trying to do that lately . . .
The more I think about it, the more I want to take the piston out of my power rack. I just don't want the inconvenience/cost of having it aligned.
