The funny thing about that is the Escort had a kill switch "feature" and it would die at any sign of danger... I was on a snowy/icy road one night and the whole car just shut off. And while not having power steering isn't terrible, steering with power steering and then suddenly steering without it kind of sucks when your car is sliding into someone's yard.
No idea WTF Ford was thinking on that genius idea.
