First time user's observations

Having used autotempest, I enjoy hearing about sites new to me that are a search engine with depth. PCPartPicker would be another one that comes to mind, but for computer components. With that said, some notes:

- A given filter's title (e.g. condition) can be clicked on, but it doesn't do anything. I suppose only filters with "see more" allow for the exclusion mode, so eh.

- Multiple fuel types can't be selected, either in the inclusion nor the exclusion mode. So, I can't do gas only+hybrid.

- The vehicle types could use a tooltip (i) or something a la caranddriver to define each type. Personally I don't know how/if you'd differentiate a SUV from a CUV or you'd just call it a crossover.

- Likewise there's nothing explaining what "plus" refers to.

- As a more general thing vehicle size or subcompact, compact, etc. would be a nice filter to have. The same could be applied to truck(s)/cargo volume, or even get techy with adjustable slider ranges for various measurements (e.g. length, width, wheelbase), but that's not a well fleshed out idea.

For the specific color filter of interior colors, as a separate filter, there could be one for material choices (e.g. leather, leatherette, cloth),which would more easily narrow down the color search.

- Mpg is on the roadmap, so nothing more to say there.

- When selecting multiple filter options, a "reset filters" would be useful.

- Could be more of an account only feature if it isn't already, but the allowance to rearrange the filter menus (e.g. if I wanted # of doors near vehicle type rather than at the bottom). Or a sidebar menu of what filter menus to list in the first place. So if I didn't want "dealer type" taking up space, I could just remove it from being shown.

- Keywords could use more options or is a jumping off point for determining/testing new filters.

- There's no way to get back to visor.vin from visor.featurebase.app (Visor at the top can be clicked but doesn't do anything when not signed in).

- Are favorited searches an account only feature? if so that should be mentioned not only under account sign up, but also a grayed out icon for the logged out experience with a tooltip letting people know to make an account to use it. Actually maybe I'm just blind, I don't see an option anywhere to save a search.

- Just a nitpick, but the vignette at the top of the homepage is rather large and it overlaying the truck banner is a weird vibe. A black bar up top, or a less cropped image would be a little better.

- Another nitpick for the sorting on listings, maybe have a A-Z/Z-A, sorted by manufacturer, or a sorted by high-low model year.
