[QUOTE="Pip, post: 210115, member: 6039"] Power steering is slowly being phased in, along with automatic tranny's. This is due to langauge is a past contract(might have been 97' contract). Power steering, standard transmissions and low steps are/will be slowly phased out as those cars come up for ADA(being crushed). Keep in mind that a package cars life, on average is usually 20 years give or take a couple years. By the year 2017, package cars with manual steering, manual tranny's, and high steppers will be a thing of the past or for the most part few and far between. Far as A/C in package cars,with the present A/C systems, it really isn't practical. The amount of stopping and starting on any given route would not allow you to get the full benefit of A/C. The added costs is another thing to take into consideration, this is probably the biggest factor. Then you have the health factor, having a cold most of the summer from hopping in and out of the A/C when your all sweated up will take it's toll. [/QUOTE]
