And when the TX was driving the cars via taking over their computers with nanites (or whatevs) ...... wouldn't work. Steering isn't controlled by the ECU of a car, and the pedals wouldn't go to the floor either.

Hopefully the next Terminator that recons T3 will fix a buncha dumb ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.

Um... My Corolla's steering is fly-by-wire. No direct linkage from the steering wheel to the gear box...  :P

Yes, the T800 units are all Arnold. Did you how primitive his understanding of humans was? And how all the newer models look different? Almost as if the robots eventually figured out they were revealing themselves by using the same skin... I mean this is basically the whole reason for the T1000....

Is your Corolla 15 years old? Semantics, fine. None of the cars in the movie have the capability to be steered by the ECU. Steering wheels connect to the steering shaft that connects to the pinion gear. You turn the wheel, and the pinion gear rotates and moves the rack that is attached to the tie rod ends.  Power steering has the same concept but with a cylinder on the rack. The gear box has nothing to do with steering, as its part of the drive train (unless you are british, then it IS the drive train) Citation: I worked in a car factory for about a decade. Also, suck my butt.

No.  The T800 and the T850 (he got upgraded in T3) are the battle chassis.  All Model 101s look like Arnold , not all T800s/T850s . In theory, a T800 model 102 would be the size of Arnie but wouldn't look like him.
