Just curious for those using manual steering: do you like it or is it a pain in the butt? It's been several years since I have had a mopar with manual steering. The car is just a weekend cruiser.


This is a matter of personal preference.
Myself, I like manual steering.
The less the draw on the motor the better.
Short, Fat tires will make it bit harder.
The trick for me is keeping the car/truck in motion when in tight situations like parking.
It can be a bit tedious if your not used to it.
In my opinion, MOPAR had the best manual steering.


I have mechanical Aptitude.
I can screw up anything.
