Should they all be that easy, or is it where my car is now 22 years old and this is something I should expect- like a weaker pump?
Most, not all, but most shots involving driving are shot with the car on a trailer.

It provides more stability for the shot and gives something for the camera (and cameraman) to hang off. Therefore, the wheels are often not even touching the ground which would make turning with one finger very easy.

Cheers
