If you could please locate by providing the URL of these outliers as you find them, we can do our best to take care of them. :) Thanks. |

I have contacted Internet Brands regarding this, and you are welcome to do so yourself as well.

Re: Lies, **** Lies, and Statistics
Also, for nearly 1 year now we have been asking for a separate database for the 2008--> and newer Ford Escape Hybrid. It is new enough, and different enough to deserve it's own category. Ford says it is 2-3 MPG better than the 2005-2007's. In the real world, it looks like it is about 5 MPG better than previous model years. I think this ( and every Ford owner will agree ) deserves a separation like the Prius I / Prius II.
Thank You!!!! Ford / Mercury / Mazda (soon) can be together. Just pre-2008 and post-2008 need to be separate. Thanks! |

Two erroneous, inactive Prius IIs https://www.greenhybrid.com/compare/.../car/4450.html https://www.greenhybrid.com/compare/.../car/2141.html An erroneous Vue: https://www.greenhybrid.com/compare/.../car/5118.html That's all I could find for now. It's been almost a month since we've addressed these issues, and nothing has happened. Please, can something happen? |
Re: Lies, **** Lies, and Statistics
These outlier entries probably do affect: mean and standard deviation and standard error
These entries really dont affect: median, middle 50% the charts show the median, middle 50% so they are unaffected. Median mpg (US) Mean mpg (US) Middle 50% mpg (US) Standard Deviation Standard Error Cars |
