Tighter Steering?

How can I make my truck have tighter steering? I don't like it that I have to turn my steering wheel 360+ deg. to do a turn. Also how can I have faster bottom speed, I.E. Take off speed, but going 150+ mph doesn't really interest me just take off speed. Oh one more thing, my first gear really sucks, and DUH it's first gear and it always sucks, so how do you unsuck it? I want my first gear to be like 2nd gear, so I can at least get across the street without shifting in the middle of the road. If this makes any since, and if anyone can help please do so!!
