Novous 18:48, 30 June 2006 (UTC) This article needs work. It mentions electric steering over hydraulic, but doesn't go into the draw backs (the loss of feedback). The four-wheel steering section doesn't seem to be organized and worded very well.

[edit] Four Wheel Steering

Bob Chandler has often claimed (and been credited) with "inventing" four wheel steering in it's modern form (Bigfoot's history page lists this). I do not know if anyone else had tried before him, but if he has it warrants mention in the article. Arenacale 12:42, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Steer-by-Wire

" *Prof. S. Suryanarayanan at IIT-B has been doing a lot of research into this field lately. "

Seems like a shameless plug. I dont remember the exact rule on this, but it detracts from the quality of this section and I am therefore removing it with this note. Also where are the citations for this section?

I agree. I think it just need a little work, though. First, it needs to explain what the technology is, for example, is this steering by wires as in cables or is it electric/electronic and wires as in electrical wires? Also, there should be some disadvantages, too. —Slippyd 19:31, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Four wheel Passive steering

I think it is probably time to accept that this is now a standard fetaure on modern cars and to remove modern cars that use passive 4ws from that list. Greglocock 08:12, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
