Poll: Average Owner Age

[philipa_240sx]

...the Rogue is for people with taste.

Sounds like something out of medieval England times!

[RubenTheRogue]

I am 31, the wife is 28. The Rogue was her pick, but I like it too.

[anchises868]

I am a 30 y/o male. My wife is 27 and our son is 2.

I'm a 46-year old male. I know the car is marketed more towards women than men, but Nissan has to pitch it in some manner. While I don't see the Rogue as girly, the one, true, "girly" car that I could could never own has to be a Mini Cooper drop-top.

You mean Nissan markets the car? I've seen a total of one commercial for it and that was once ... on a Spanish station. I found out about it on MSN Autos.

In the two months I've owned mine, I have not seen another one on the road. I thought I did once, but when I got closer I saw it was a Murano. Maybe Nissan's marketing should be better. I didn't know until I read this thread that some people thought it was older or girly.

[mikeslammer]

I am 21, male, and a musician/firefighter.

The Rogue (which I am purchasing this week, the process has begun) is the best choice for me.

Funny, my girlfriend commented that it looked girly. I didn't get that impression whatsoever.

I'm 37 and I just got my Rogue last weekend. I wanted something that sat up higher than a car but didn't look too much like a soccer-mom-mobile. I think the Rogue looks cute & sporty but also has that look of high class.My dog & I will be going to the beach in style now!

I am 45, divorced two girls 16 and 11. I won't let my 16 year old near it. (She hit my garage with my ex's new car) I love my Red Rogue!!

I mod the rogue but my girl is 21 and owns it

[Leo2005]

Well all my friends are saying that The rogue is for older people with familys. Girlie etc.. etc...

One day I corrected my manager when he said that Benz CLS550 is for older people. I told him its only because younger ones can't afford it. That's funny but its true and I don't see too many people who's over 50 or so driving a Rogue. They driving something a little bit more expensive like a corvette or cadi. They would probably consider a Rogue as a winter car.

[Roguemeister]

They would probably consider a Rogue as a winter car.

That describes me! Over 50 and I bought it strictly as my winter vehicle. My summer car is the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata PRHT.

[mstrmstr]

MALE 58, married... dink -- Bought it as a slick all purpose vehicle.

[flying]

55 year old female, sharing it with 25 year old son. We both love it!

[jk47]

35 and Male. I actually thought this was the least "girly" loooking small SUV but I guess they are all viewed that way.

I traded in my 10 yr. old 2 door Honda Accord (still running well) to get AWD and a 4-door car with decent storage. I'm averaging around 24MPG on my commute (only 2 mpg less then the Accord) and it looks like I should get around 30 on all highway trips.

[AceMax]

52 y/o male married two children, two grandsons, they all love it. Traded in my 2002 Xterra for a Venon Red Rogue.

[dominodave]

The big 41. Replaced a Honda Civic. Less road noise. Smoother ride. More adult looking.

[NismoPhan]

I'll be 35 next month! Yea me!!! I just picked up my Rogue S AWD two days ago and love it! (but i'm still mourning the loss of my 98 sentra...sob had it 10 years... hope the Rogue lasts just as long.) Anyways, I'm married with a 2 year old boy. Definitely needed a bit more room than the Sentra had to offer. Have big plans for the Rogue... a whole new "adventure" as my wife put it.

[us66rogue]

Its my wifes, but its one of the vehicles we both agreed on the looks of. We where looking to downsize the family cruiser.

[Schmitty]

27, Traded in a 2000 durango for the rogue, glad I did.

[Nick 568]

18 year-old male, replaced a Ram 1500 4x4 with the 5.9L. (I do still miss the thing though )I needed something with AWD that was affordable, reliable, and fun to drive. Also, I wanted to go Japanese due to having put $3k in repairs in my Dodge after just 68k miles. (water pump, entire rear differential, u-joints, power steering pump, etc)

[IdaCrue]

55 male here, and I too sold my Cvic to get the Rogue. Much the same reasons you stated in your post. Plus I wanted AWD for winter, I hated crawling in and out of the low seats in the Civic, the barebones accessories in my EX model, and I love being able to take me and the wife's golf clubs to the course without having to drive the 4X4 pickup. After 7 months of driving this car, I still think it is one of the best vehicles I have ever owned.

[pfmrof]

68, wife 64, we got tired of having trouble getting out of our sedan, this is so much easier to enter and exit, and a great drive.

[duckhunter08]

25 years old!

[Pressure Drop]

51. Picking up my red SL in a couple of days. Trading away an '02 Forester.

[Wicked_Black_Hawk]

I am 24, female, enaged. My fiance (27) drives it every chance he gets, but he still loves his black '05 Xterra more .

Only been a Rogue owner for a week, but it is SOOOOO much better than the '02 Beetle I traded in! I couldn't be happer with my choice!!!

[2009 Indigo Blue]

I'm 33.

[Cha]

29 and no one around me has mentioned girly. it is great on a camping trip and more than enough room for my dog when he is traveling with me

[takeshi]

Well all my friends are saying that The rogue is for older people with familys. Girlie etc.. etc... I wanted to know the ages of the people on here who own rogues so I can get a sense for myself.

So do you buy your own cars based on your own opinions or those of your friends? Unless my friends are paying for my car I could care less what they think.

Why doesn't this poll include gender and marital status if you're that concerned about your friends' perception of you?
