Of course. Well, considering power-steering is often added to motorhomes built around an ancient Mercedes-Benz truck or bus frame, I guess it would be easier to find a hen's tooth than someone driving something that big without power steering as a private vehicle.

And yes, the steering wheel in said heavy vehicle is massive to give you leverage.
Even when we look at smaller vehicles, such as the VW Beetle/Käfer, it had a bigger steering wheel than most newer vehicles, which by the way are often bigger than a Beetle.
