When asked for my opinion on the big three I just say go open the three hoods and then tell me.
Well that kind of depends. If you are like 4x4ford where you will leave it stock and trade it in every 3-4 years without going past the warranty, then accessibility under the hood is not an issue. For people like us who will either modify, go well past the warrant period/mileage, and/or planning on doing our own repairs then it is a huge factor.
I know with my brother's old truck, I would not want to do many of the things I have done with my truck because of all the stuff I would have to remove and what is involved. I would have likely paid someone thousands of dollars to do what I have done on my own to mine. This would also take all the fun out of it because most of the enjoyment of moding is being there with my son showing him how to do it and seeing his face light up when we get to test the results of what we did. Since this truck hasn't needed many repairs, moding is my only way to teach him.
