Anyone not have power steering?

How hard is it to turn? I heard it's pretty easy for some and others say too hard.

I've driven cars that didn't have power steering before and its hard to turn the wheel at first, but once you get moving its not that bad at all.

My first car, an '84 CRX, didn't have power stearing and it didn't bother me any. Although now after driving with power stearing for years..... it probably would bother me to go back. Once you get used to a convenience, it's hard to go with out.

Its also harder to make a sharp turn, as opposed to just weaving through traffic
