We have a simple plan. We buy Subaru cars and Ford trucks. Both

I *hate* the steering boxes in Ford trucks. I've driven on mountain
roads in cars where I've moved the steering wheel less than the play
in most Ford truck steering boxes.
Except for the heavest of GVW vehicles, Ford trucks now have Rack & pinion
steering installed.
The gearbox you complain about, (XR 50), continues to be the main steering
gear assembly in NASCAR cup cars.
Subie's do pretty well, but if you push them at all, you *have* to
trailbrake to get them to turn in. Though powering out of the esses in
a power induced four wheel drift in a 4WD can be a lot of fun.
