[Charger-Bodie]

I just thought it would be fun to see what age group has the most Charger owners. 

If this has been done before , let me know and Ill delete this.

[Blown70]

33, and I have 2 of them how does that factor in?

[Charger-Bodie]

33, and I have 2 of them how does that factor in?

Well, lets just run with it as one vote per owner. Otherwise it will get too confusing.

[Brock Samson]

bought it at 24 though, 27 years ago.... 

[Charger-Bodie]

bought it at 24 though, 27 years ago.... 

We will go with you're present age.

[Musicman]

[LeeBoy]

So far ages 37- 45. I'm 2 years younger than my 68.

[bull]

I'm about 14 months older than my car and my wife is about three weeks "newer".

[Mefirst]

/Tom

[70charginglizard]

[tan top]

[daytonalo]

Actual age or Mentality ?

[Charger_Fan]

I was 6 when mine was new.

[Charger-Bodie]

I was a 1 1/2 years old when I first wrecked a 68 Charger that was in 1972. 

[69bronzeT5]

My Charger was 23 when I was born

[69charger2002]

well the 37-45 is obviously going to be the bigger category, as it spand 9 years. while mine(26-31) spans only 6. cool thread though i have wondered myself what ages everyone is(some don't say in the profile)..

[rt green]

8 years older than mine. i was old enough to scratch it with a bike. or spill something on the seat

[bull]

I was a 1 1/2 years old when I first wrecked a 68 Charger that was in 1972. 

How did you manage that?

[h76]

Hey Trav-
That light blue 69 you had sure didn't take long to sell.Did that happen to end up at Texas Toy Box(I see one listed on their site that looks a lot like the on you were selling)?Man what a nice ride!
Anyway,put me down on the younger side(26-31)

[69charger2002]

yep, they got it night before last and now it's on there for $34,500. i wish them well, they were really nice guys. funny thing is they wouldn't tell me who they were at first, they were scared i'd up the price or not sell since they were a business. i told them it doesn't matter to me, if they give me what i want for the car, and then make $10k off of it, good for them. yeah they took a beautiful pic of it and it's front and center on their main page.. www.texastoybox.com  they tried to buy all my chargers!! lol

[ChgrSteve67]

My 67 Charger was built 5 months before I was born and I've owned it for 22 years.

[Fitz73Chrgr]

I'm 21, but my Dad and I are restoring the car together.  His name is on the title and he has payed for the vast majority of the supplies thus far since I'm a poor college student.  Haha.  I guess I should have voted for his age (47).

Trav-
I don't blame ya!Whoever's there with cash it ain't your problem.Man it seems like they have a glut ot of 68 and 69s on their site right now.Hope you find a 68 you are wanting.

[68charger383]

42, I have a few years on my car 

[miller]

18... but im willing to bet the younger guys chargers arnt as nice as the older guys

[440charger68]

 :icon_smile_big:I consider myself lucky that im only 17 and own a 68 dodge charger. Even better that i drive it everyday, barely getting by in gas.

[resq302]

31 going on 32 in July.

[73chgrSE]

Bought mine at 16 and I'm 35 now.

[dpm68]

Do you mean what is the average age? 35?

[Tilar]

Well, I'm 11 years older than my 68, But when I was 30, I had the 68, a 72, a 73 and a 74. Plus I've had countless Dusters. I remember one that I traded a 12 gauge semi automatic shotgun for, and after driving it for 12 years I sold it for $1000. I wish I had that one back   

[High Impact]

I'VE GOT THREE AND IM 36YRS OLD. 

[FastbackJon]

Bought my first Charger (a '66) when I was 16 and it was 34.

[Magnumcharger]

I got the 1968 Charger R/T after trading my old 1969 Roadrunner straight across for it back in October 1991, when I was 29.
So that puts me on the outside of the 37 - 45 age group.
I remember the year 1968 though.
I turned six at the Calgary Zoo, on our move from the east to the west coast...in a 1962 VW Bus!

[viper r/t]

I'm 16 

[Jonas_N]

31 and got mine this christmas. 

[zerfetzen]

I'm 35 and bought mine this year.  Most people are in 37-45 right now, but there's 9 years in that category and only 5 years in 32-36, so I guess by chance alone, there should be nearly twice the people in 37-45, which makes looking at the distribution of the results a little misleading, unless there's really good reasons for the age categories.  Any chance of a restart with even age categories, like 16-20, 21-25, 26-30, 31-35, 36-40, 41-45, etc.?

I think We will just leave it, Its just for fun anyway its not like the biggest group gets a prize or somthing.

[70 500]

my car had been on the road 18 years b4 i even saw light

[Old Moparz]

I fell into the 37 to 45 category, barely. At least until the end of this year, then I move to the 46 to 51 bracket.   

[Nacho-RT74]

I'm 32 but started at 22

[68_R/T_Eric]

My 68 R/T has 15 years on me I'm 24


Eric

[Manfred318]

Lets see here... Bought my '68 when I was 15 and I'm 21 now. I guess that still makes me "one of those youngsters with their crazy antics and off-beat shenanigans"

[JR]

I got my 70 when I was 16, and my 68 when I was 17. I'm 24 now.

I really wanted to hit the 60-100 age button for grins and giggles though.

[Ghoste]

Like OldMoparz, I'm 45 now but I checked the 46 box since that's where I'll be in a couple of months anyway.  So much for poll accuracy at this minute though huh? 

[Charger_Fan]

they tried to buy all my chargers!! lol

You should have told them "one miiillllion dollars!"

[suntech]

I am a 63 model, car is 68

[six-tee-nine]

I tought to be one of the few below 30 guys out here, but i see I'm not alone....
BTW my buildsheet reads 1980 so that makes me 27 

[charger490]

bought my 68 charger when i was 36 brand new and still have another one at 75. frist one hit headon in 69

[Magnumcharger]

bought my 68 charger when i was 36 brand new and still have another one at 75. frist one hit headon in 69

And you survived!!! How fast were you going?
You might well be the most "time-enhanced" member here!!

[charger490]

i was doing 50 mph over a railroad bridge and the other guy [drunk] was passing  2 cars in my lane. the guy in the other car that he was passing was the judge of that town so i had a good witness.the car was totoled.i also had my wife and three kids with me.boy had a concusion grils were ok wife internal injures. and i had a broken jaw, broken hand,and broken leg.i also had 4 other drunk drivers hit me while driving the gasoline truck. never got hurt in the truck

[69_500]

29 years old here. Guess the poll doesn't really ask how old you were when you bought your car but everyone else is answering that part too, so who am I to stop something right?

Bought the 500 when I was 25, bought my first Charger (a 1970 model) in 1996 when I was 18.

[Mass_Mopar]

I bought my charger when I was 15, I'm 22 now.   

[smasherofall]

I was 27 when I bought mine, 47 now. I've owned it 1/2 its life   

[41husk]

I voted 46-51 because I am 46, but I bought both of my chargers before I was 45 and had my first charger whaen I was 22.

[68RT4ME]

44 yrs old now. Got my 1st Charger at 21. (Thanks Troy). Until last year, I hadn't owned a MOPAR since 1989 when my then wife said those famous words... "Honey, I'm pregnant".    Bye bye MOPAR, hello Nissan Pathfinder for her and the kid.

Now he's off to college in the fall and I finally got to by my toy's. Oh, and the Pathfinder?  Not a collectable 

[The70RT]

Got mine in 78 when I was 17

[Death1970Proof]

<-------------Im 26

[Winged 1]

Have 2 now but owned 4 total over the course of the last 51 years.

[Chatt69chgr]

Wow!  I'am surprised there are so few Charger owners over 60.  I'am 62.  Oh well----there are some benefits.  I can order senior citizen coffee at Hardees.  Now I wonder if I could get some of the Charger repop suppliers to give me a senior citizen discount---ha, ha---fat chance.

[General_01]

I am 40, so I am older than both of my Chargers. I bought the '71 when I was 21 though  )

[moparstuart]

bought my first charger in 84 at age 16 it was a 70 R/T top banana wish i had it now
   Now we have a 69. 87shelby and son has a 66,

[ChgrSteve67]

Wow! I'am surprised there are so few Charger owners over 60.

I think there may be a computer issue here as well.

Most of the over 60 gang that I talk to that are into cars don't own or care to own a computer.

My Uncle is 76 and he always says he would like to know how to use a computer but when you put one in front of him he won't touch it even if you tell him what to do.  Its kinda funny watching him hold my notebook while we drive around tuning the Fuel Injection on my Charger.  I'm still working on him.

[AKcharger]

The 80's generation rules!!!!


these things were plentiful and Cheap in 1982!

[73chgrSE]

Yep, I bought my first '73 in 87 for $1500.00 the stereo system  in it was probly $700.00 at the time. And the car was built. just had a crappy interior and needed paint.

[Musicman]

37-45    Let's see, as I recall that particuler age group falls under a very specific catagory 

Midlife Crisis is a term used to describe a period of dramatic self-doubt that is typically felt in the "middle years" of life, as people sense the passing of youth and the imminence of old age. The condition is most common in the ages ranging from 35-50.

Individuals experiencing a mid-life crisis are said to have some of these feelings:
·   search of an undefined dream or goal
·   a deep sense of remorse for goals not accomplished
·   desire to achieve a feeling of youthfulness
·   need to spend more time alone or with certain peers

They are also said to exhibit some of these behaviors:
·   abuse of alcohol
·   conspicuous consumption -- acquisition of unusual or expensive items such as sports cars, gadgets, tattoos, motorbikes, etc.
·   depression
·   paying special attention to physical appearance

Thank God I'm not in that catagory 

[Musicman]

Boy... it sure did got quiet around here all of a sudden 

[1969chargerrtse]

Well, let me say being 52 in May that I found it sad that I'm in one of the smallest groups?  Never had any of the mid life crisis feelings listed.  Also never went through the 7 year Itch thing?  I loved the look of the Charger since the first one came out in 66.  By 69 It was a deep deep love for the design and power of that car, and most Muscle cars of the era except Ford, though I did love the Shelby.  It's weird to read the mid life examples because I truly never ever felt any of those feelings.  Not looking to change the thread but anyone else go through the mid life crisis?

[Musicman]

The whole Midlife Crisis theory has never been based in reality, it's just one of those old wives tales... but it still has it's uses at times like this when your looking for a laugh 

[69charger440]

My charger is 14 years older then me! Man, it is a great role model!!!

[KMPX2]

46 with 3 Chargers

[Ghoste]

It would be interesting to break it down further and see where the age groups fall out with the year of Charger owned.

[CB]

I was (still am) 34 when owning my Charger.
Now waiting 2 more weeks on the arriving of my Barracuda.

If I decide to sell the Fish ever, I'll go find myself a nice Charger again.
Oh wait... I already know a rust free '69 Charger waiting for me
CB

PS didn't vote because I don't own a Charger no more

[RT/SE]

Well, I recently reached a milestone in my life by turning 40.  Take a look at the photo of my birthday cake.  The car on the cake is not mine.  My Charger is currently under restoration so one of my buddies supplied a photo he took years ago at a car show to my brother who planned the whole party.  However owns the Charger - your car was the star of my 40th B-Day party!!!! 

[charger_mike75]

I'm 32 now, bought mine when I was 17.

[bullit68]

39 now and own a 66,68,69 and a 70.

[rare69]

the reason the age group is 37-45 is we are finally making enough money to restore or buy the car we always wanted. and are first divorce has been a few years.
