Nice catch Kurt. Here's a link to an article about the electronic power steering in the 2011:

2011 Mustang First To Carry Nexteer Electric Power Steering - Ford Mustang News

How far are we willing to convert? Electronic power steering sounds like fun.

Probably will be a lot easier to swap it into a 96' and up car. The new 5.0 isn't the same as the current modular, but I'm sure it's a lot closer than the pushrod engine. I imagine it won't be too hard either way.

Well I know they have put the 5.0 in the 2010 so if you can put the 3v 4.6 in the new edges then you can get it to work in an sn.

Well chevy has been using electric power steering for a while already. Chrysler has electric power steering in the hybrids too and well honda also has electric power steering too. Alot of manufacturers have been using electric power steering for a while with no issues. Although chevy did have a recall at one point on their electric racks for losing power and locking up.
