Forum members average age?

The age breakout looks reasonable enough, but the graphs obviously show how this forum doesn't represent the real world in terms of engine choice because it's mostly enthusiasts. The majority of the mustangs I see in real life are either an EB or a V6

These official numbers would say otherwise.

This is only 2015 data. I wouldn't imagine there being any changes in preference for 2016. Another interesting breakdown would be by region. Some areas may see more EB/V6 whereas other areas (better weather, more wealth) would see more GT's.

You do realize that what you just quoted supports my statement right?

The combination of EB and V6 equals about 66,700 vs the GT at 43,800

That's 52% more EB/V6 than GTs

No it doesn't. You are talking overall. This thread is specifically talking about age and by car owned. You mention YOU see more of V6/EB where you are but that does not confirm anything which is why I mentioned a break down on region would be better to see. Where I live and commute I see more GT's than I ever see of either. V6 is pretty much non existent. Regardless I'm not even sure what your statement has to do with this thread. :lol:
