I agree with the reader that is complaining about the amount of power steering assist for new cars. I am in the market for a new car after 7 years, and cannot believe that every one I have tested so far has over-assisted steering. Eight so far. It's ok around town but on the freeway it's unnerving.
I will be trying one readers response to add more caster to the front wheels, on whatever car I wind up with.

Have you been overindulging in alcohol or did you just post to the wrong forum?

I think the post was just rhetorical. I do that sometimes, except I just don't press 'submit'.

That's where the level of alcohol consumption comes in.
