You sound like you know what you are talking about but I am not following. As a consumer I had a choice of vehicle (I could have bought a sedan or a station wagon or a minivan) and I picked what I wanted.

You are not following because you are looking only at your decision at the moment of buying, and not everyone else's decisions over the past 35-ish years that have shaped, (even if we assume for a minute that the massive marketing investment has had no direct impact on your personal preferences):
1. The set of vehicles on the road and thus what your experience in different vehicles will be like, e.g., in terms of road visibility, and
2. The mix of specific vehicle models and features of each that are actually manufactured and available at the time you made thaf decision.
