This was my first reaction, too. I recall my car-buying experience consisting mostly of me trying to keep up with my impressions about seat-feel, head space, visibility, dash design, etc. and trying to somehow aggregate that information with numbers that I really didn’t know how to process in the first place (e.g. safety ratings, scores from reviews, prices vs. upkeep costs). It wasn’t until I’d pretty much picked out my car that I made an effort to mentally simulate a typical drive.
