Reaction From Passenger....
Weather was great yesterday so I took a car fanatic neighbor for a ride on some local back roads. My 2019 has ABC. After about 15 minutes into the ride and many compliments Tom, who is a Chevy mechanic, said “Wow, This is like riding on marshmallows.” I personally have become used to the ride but took the comment with a grin.....😊

Maybe he was comparing it to an older model Corvette.

Kinda sounds like an insult, actually.
