Looks like 59 & 60 to start, we'll see how many wander in here to add stats.

More detailed than the old one, that stopped at 36+

 

Shit. Guess I'm the young pup thus far.
The lingering smell of Bengay should have been a sign?

 

I selected the age 24 group but I turn 25 next month..


Started lurking here around here in 2005.. at age 15.. im getting old lol

 

Lou shut up really? I thought you were atleast two years older than me!!

turnig 26 in two months.

 

Hey I voted a tie now!!!

 

Brought the 20-24 up to a tie for first!

 

36 and feeling way to old to drive this car

 

I've felt that way for 10 or so years now ...

 

I'm just a big 29 year old kid.

 

Not much has changed. I need a Tom's tune and and an Xbox one. As soon as I feel like it both are coming. I still have about 11% of forza four to finish.

 

I wonder if I voted already. Says I can't vote in this poll.

 

your account is too new bud, i believe you need at least 25 or 50 post before voting in certain polls..

get to posting! [twothumbs]

 

im fwee yearz old

 

HAHA I'm 17 and drive an SVT, but it has been wrecked and who knows what all.

 

53 is fine but yours is not lowered and construction cone orange

 

This detailed poll is more interesting than the prev. simpler one.

It'll be fun to watch, so far it is matching my assumption that small cars are most popular for younger & older drivers these days.

Gap between 40 & 50 so far...

 

If it were interwoven with year of car, I'm sure we'd find that the younger kids drive the older cars while most of the new ones are the old fogies.

At my age I feel left out because most have moved on and become 'professional' and bought a new car to reflect their higher status. Focus really has no status and is pretty blah.

 

Interesting, the poll doesn't show up on Tapatalk

 

Well, if it was 4 months from now, I'd be the only vote in the 65-69 range so far! I got my SVT back in 2005 and just yesterday it turned 317,000 miles. Got a 2013 Focus ST waiting in the driveway just in case though!

Heh heh heh [] ... I beat you to it and got to be the first (and so far the only) one in the 65-69 range.

My new Focus is my first "grown up" car with four doors and a trunk, after more than 50 years of small, sporty two door coupes, roadsters, and hatchbacks. It's still a manual with great handling, though. Maybe that's why it's not as easy to drive it like a grown up as all my wife's bigger sedans have been. No way I could control my enthusiasm (and keep my driver's license safe) with an ST. You must be better at controlling that -- or have some very understanding law enforcement officers where you drive.

This poll will only run for one year, which solves the problem for most of us of being in different age groups at a later date. Another way to do that would be for us to pick the age group we were when we first bought our (current) Focus rather than when we voted, if those are different. That, or have the poll show ranges of birth years rather than ages and just calculate our ages from that. Either way it could then keep running forever, like the original Focus Owners' Age POLL.

 

Needs to be moved to the Official Polls & Surveys section for better visibility.

 

Moderator. [wave] Any chance of this happening soon?

 

Heck, I still act like I'm 29 LOL

 

I'll be 28 soon.

 

21 years old here. Just turned in may!

 

^^^^This lol

 

Kids LOLz

 

Honestly I'm glad the focus age group isnt just younger people. Its kinda the reason I bought my focus and not a civic or 240sx or something more common and japenese. Usually you get labeled as an immature kid driving a ricer. I've never been one for racing around on the streets at high speeds doing dangerous things. In fact most of the guys I meet up with in my area are shocked when I tell them how old I actually am.

 

I have friends that asked me why I didn't buy a Honda or Acura. My response was, parts are cheap and they get stolen ALL the time. I had a fairly quick CRX 8 yrs ago. It got stolen during a concert in downtown Seattle. That cost me 454.00 for the impound, 40.00 for a replacement steering wheel(I guess that they needed it more that I did) and rare MTX MTA 250 amp(yes they got the deck, sub and speakers as well).

I am glad that we have a group of younger members here.

 

Well don't I feel little.. But I see this place as a bunch of big bros who help me with my car so it's all good. [twothumbs]



[drummer] btw, we need a guitar playing smiley.

 

WOOHOO! Five of us in the 50-54 group!

 

How's Now?

 

I'm fifty nine. Compared to the other cars I own, this may be the most normal, mundane, and practical. The others include:
'80 Rabbit pickup 1.8 16V and GTI interior
'87 Scirocco 16V very nicely restored
'67 Ford Cortina GT Nicely Restored
'68 Ford Cortina, Jay Ivey built motor Lots of autocrosses and track days
1984 Vanagon Westfalia full camper, 2 each, one in Maine, one in So Cal
1965 Lotus Super Seven Cosworth 1500. 100 horsepower, and under 1060 lb on the road. An SVT weighs nearly 3 times as much.

Its getting harder and harder to get parts for the Cortinas, so I had to buy the SVT to drive until I can get the brakes completely sorted on the Cortinas.

My SVT is bone stock, except for a trailer hitch I put on it, and its in excellent rust free condition. I don't intend to make any modifications to it, except maybe a tune. If and when it needs shocks, I'll probably upgrade there.
