I believe that RB steering is generally stronger;  almost all trucks have
RB steering.

The larger BMW’s have RB steering:  5, 6, and 7-series cars.

Mercedes is dedicated to RB steering:  the the only MB cars in the last 50
years or so to use R@P are the previous-generation SL’s and the 190 class.
The SL’s didn’t have enough room and the 190′s were "cost reduced."  With
the new SL’s in 1990 (or so) and the new C class, all Daimler-Benz vehicles
use RB steering.  This includes trucks and busses.

I think most people assume R&P is better because people selling cars other
than BMW and Mercedes tend to try to make buyers believe R&P is a "feature"
of their cars.

There is one American muscle-car using RB, but I can’t remember which.
