I imagine your LeSabre meets and/or exceeds those expectations... I remember my old Bonneville wagon was a sheer pleasure to drive on the highway. I'd set the seats and the cruise, then pull the tilt wheel all the way down. I'd have the steering wheel in my lap, and steer with 2 fingers. I do the same with all my vehicles. The only one that isn't as compliant is the Beast as it has speed sensitive power steering so you really need a little more than 2 fingers to drive. Usually its 2 fingers & a thumb. My mom used to have a Taurus and I absolutely hated it because you could not drive it on the highway with just a few fingers. I only made one road trip in that car. I just couldn't stand it.
