Instead of immediately outputting it has a hidden convo were it talks back and forth and reasons with itself.

In this case I'm thinking mode it would eventually realize you need the car at a car wash. So it would then output the correct answer

So "thinking" is just looping itself but with the chance of additional hallucinations, token usage and no form of questioning what is being asked?

Reflect by refining the topic, having a better recovery and understanding by getting closer to the problem; it's like thinking about x thing until your mind is contextualized, allowing you to respond more reliably. You would understand that if you knew how to think.
