Full Version: Average age of DSMCentral member

I'm cracking up over this, but I want to make sure DSMCentral is relevant.

Over the weekend I had a discussion with an 18 year old member. With the claim of 'No offense' he told someone that DSMCentral was a web site for old guys. Hahaha...Now I would fully expect this as a description of me from an 18 year olds perspective, but I've always been of the impression that the majority of DSMCentral members were quite a bit younger than I. For the whole club to be labled as 'Old Guys' makes me want to re-evaluate our demographic.

So let me know what age group you fit in this poll.

Thanks,
Marcus

This is sad, Yesterday I would have been in the 21-25 colum and today I had to jump up to the next section! ;-(
by the way, Happy belated b-day Rob!

huh.gif I was going to ask Marcus if that was the age you felt while your working on it or while your driving it. Because mine would be 35 working on it and 16 while I'm driving. laugh.gif biggthumpup.gif

That's funny, Annie and I were discussing this last night on the drive home from Rob's birthday party. Everyone there seemed to be of the older realm of DSMCentral. It seems that the older crowd has more get-togethers so maybe that attributes to some of it. I personally thought the majority was 21+ (of faithful members anyway).

Beware of the old....we have already lived through many of the mistakes you have never even thought of...hopefully you'll be lucky enough to live through them also! biggrin.gif

So youngins aren't interested in checking dsmcentral out because they think we are a bunch of old guys?

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that we just don't put up with all the pointless offtopic bs that the younger crowd seems to relish in on the other car forums.

Woot for 21 year olds laugh.gif
kapoosh
Yes! i still land in the first category....after turning 20 i was starting to feel old smile.gif

So far the poll is showing that most members are between 21-25 like I thought. A lesser amount of us are older like Miami. keep up the good info.

I must be getting old, I was just discussing this poll with the wife. I voted I was 35, she just informed me I'm 36....going on 37 in 3 months. NOW I really hate this thread!

Change the tally if it matters...

I guess I'll go take my viagra and run around after the wife.....
The Iron Goat
I have a hard time believing I'm 26. Why, it seems like just yesterday I was being shoved into a locker with 18" of tighty-whitey compressed between my cheecks. High school was such fun..... sad.gif


And no, Dan, 18" of tighty-whitey is not a reference to you. But it could be. blink.gif

So far it looks like I'm the geezer of the group. Anybody want to go do a quick thirty mile bike ride to feel young?
Taxiwardance
All you old timers going to be taking advantage of your senior citizens discount at McDonalds soon? You can save like 20 cents per cup of coffee! If this thread were titled “how old do you feel” I would be in the later group though.

So great, I'm the second oldest....now I feel much better blink.gif

I couldn't do a 30 mile bike ride if it has a motor on it....

At least I can still put down the Southern like when I was 18...errr...21!
Kazz5
Now, wait just a sec. What makes you think you're older than me if we're both in the same age group? ... and I think I gave up the Comfort about 18-21 years old ... *Laugh*
black92_tsi_awd
Kazz
It looks like there 2 older than both of us now biggthumpup.gif

Southern's an old habit for me to break, used to buy 5ths six at a time in college. Could put down a bottle on a good night. I like drinking kept simple, a bottle, a glass and some ice....life is good!
