Re: Age of Current TCH Owners ?
Actually that link is for the "old" deduction (2005). The new one is the tax credit (not a deduction):

Wish you all the best in your pick-up tomorrow, TxRanch!
As for me, I'm 27.
So it looks like the average age of TCH owners is 34.6 years, based on the replies from this thread (this includes those that are still planning on getting it).

With all of the tax credits and perks for buying a hybrid, anyone and everyone will jump onboard to either honda/toyota and by the time GM finally gets in the game all of the tax breaks and perks will drop off...and GM will be looking for the next big technology to be one step behind of.

This is not quite true. The credits are scheduled to continue until 2010, however they start getting phased out beginning with the second quarter following the sale of the 60,000th hybrid vehicle for a manufacturer. Toyota just hit their 60,000 this week, so you'll only be able to get the full rebate on Toyotas for cars purchased though Sept 30.
GM has not come out with a hybrid yet. When they do customers will have the tax credit available to them, while Toyota buyers may not. Of course, IRS rules are always changing so there's a chance that Congress could extend them.
BTW, my wife and I are 46 (but she's a very young 46)

Re: Age of Current TCH Owners ?
41!
I spent my 20s on cars, motorcycles, and flying small aircraft. I spent my 30s selling all my toys to buy a house, starting a family, paying off all my debt, retirement planning, being sensible. Now it's a new decade, time to get crazy again, need new toys!

I like the car, but buying a 5 passenger 4 door family sedan that gets great mileage is hardly getting crazy.
