Still better than the personal experience you guys are presenting.
I agree you shouldn't go by others' opinions and experiences. You should go by your own.
That's what I've always done. And if I don't have personal experience, I am not afraid to forge my own. Bought a bike that needs a little TLC? Look at it as an opportunity to take a class at the School of Hard Knocks and come out better informed and learned in the end. Any experience can be either bad of good, depending on how you choose to regard it.
But... nothing wrong with playing safe with the statistics. That's why people buy Camrys and Accords.
