I've got two I alternate between for regular use. My "new" daily is a 2013 Scion FR-S. My "old" daily is a 1986 Toyota Land Cruiser. I think that puts my personal average at 25.5 years. 😁

Both my daily driver and my wife's are from 2013 for an average age of 12 years.

The 1966 Dart is not a daily driver; it would really drag numbers up if it was.

So we are now at a total of 2489 years, 139 cars, for an average of 17.9 years.

Negative sir.  The reign of Saab has given way to the Toyota Auris Hybrid.  I think M4ff3w might still have a bead on where our old Sport Kombi is these days, but that's about it.

One 2019, the other is either 1990 or 1985 depending on what I have parked where. I'll call that 37 years to split the difference.

Up to this point, that's 2571 years and 145 cars = 17.73

My DD is a 2018 GTI I bought new, that has 75k on it now

Wife's DD is a 2024 Kia minivan

My other four cars/trucks average 32 years old (dragged upward by my 2010 Sequoia). All of them are legal/runnning, so not counting any parts cars or anything lol. So my overall fleet average is ~22 years old.

I'm not sure how to math this.

My newest car is 19-20 years old.  It's my main vehicle, and I've owned it since it was 12.

My next most-driven vehicle is 44 years old.  I've had it since it was 36.

The next is 41 years old.  I've had it since it was 23.

I also have a 39 and a 42 year old car that are currently inoperative.

 

Also, are we going by model year or build date?  By whatever happenstance, all but one car were built in the previous year to the model year, in most cases the first actual month of production.   (My '84 RX-7 had the super rare 3.933 final drive! My '81 RX-7 has several MY1980 parts on it, too)  Is a car built in August considered to be four months newer?

2016 Mini, 9 years

 2021 Audi, 4 years

 for 2 more cars and an average of 6.5 years.

I know what hasn't happened yet is irrelevant, but my wife's DD is either about to get 4 years newer or 5-20 years older, and mine's likely to get about 20-30 years older.

 Back to relevance, carrying on from DjGreggieP, we're up to:

2881 years over 161 vehicles for an average age of 17.89 years.
