Default Average age of Hybrid owners = 55 yrs old?!?

While actual hybrid vehicle owners tend to be older (55) than the average new-vehicle buyer and more affluent, with an average annual household income of $113,400, the study finds that consumers who indicate that they are considering a hybrid tend to be younger (averaging 43 years old), with an average annual household income of $88,500.

Um,, 'Scuse Me Sonny !!?? Boy, did that study blow it or what? AVERAGE AGE OF HYBRID OWNERS 55 years old? Where in the name of all that is Hybrid did they get that
octogenarian sample of owners !!?!?!?!?!

That's just hilarious !! Didn't we do an age survey around here? Did the average come in at anywhere NEAR 55 years old !!???!!! NOT !!!!

PS. The survey here says 69.23% of the gh.com owners who voted are 44 or younger, with 30.77% being 45 or older. I'm no math whiz, but it looks like that puts the average under 44 years old.
