I had a brand new Class B built on a 2005 E350 chassis. The steering was like trying to play a video game, there was no road feel and no feedback of any kind. That RV was totally destroyed by an 18-wheeler and was replaced by a brand new one also built on a 2005 E350 chassis. It steered and drove normal - there was a good road feel and great feedback.
I spoke with an engineer who used to work for Ford and he told me the system was basically a drive by wire system and the lack of road feel or feedback could be easily fixed with a software update or tweak at a Ford dealership. Never bothered to check that out because the replacement unit drove perfectly fine.
