Maybe there's a thread like this already on here but if there is I couldn't find it. Who has the oldest fleet? Winner gets internet brownie points.
For me, oldest to newest, I have:
1991 Miata
1998 Boxster
2002 Silverado
2012 Mazda3
That puts me at an average vintage of 2000 (specifically September of 2000), which makes my fleet an average of 22.25 years old.
My dad has an unfair ace up his sleeve.
2017 Durango
2009 Miata
1991 Honda Acty
1926 Model T
Average Fleet age of 37.25 years old.
Lets see
1973 Innocenti
1989 Mini Racing Green
1994 Mini SPi
2009 MINI Clubman S
2014 Audi Allroad
So average age, 27.2
What do I win?
No question, not a new car household here......
Edit: Oops, your dad beats me by a mile!
What about your Porsche, amiatacalled steve?
The fleet average is 1995 or 28 years.
They span from 1956 to 2014 and there are 11 of them.
Do I include the race car?
1983 Mazda RX7 (ChampCar): 40 years
1996 Ford Ranger (Junk hauler): 27 years
2002 Ford E350 (V10 baby!): 21 years
2015 Ford Fiesta (fuel saver): 8 years
24 years
58 Ghia
64 Corvair
65 Corvair
77 XL125
80 XL80
87 B2000
19 Forrester
So, 45 Years (I did include motorcycles, but it's 44 without)
damn, i feel rich, my fleet average (not including monzora) is only 11 years.
(2010 + 2010 + 2010 + 2018) / 4 = 2012
even by odo i feel rich.
(231k + 156k + 101k + 46+k) / 4 = 133.5k
EDIT: Throw in monzora and average age jumps to 20 years, and odojumps to 148k (using 206k from the donorvette as monzora's odo)
Our average is 1998.5. (I would have guessed newer.)
And do we get bonus points for having one car from each decade?

I have a '90 Miata and a '10 Yaris, so an average age of 23. Oof.
9, 11, 15, 20, 37, 49, 52
27 1/2 years.
1988.1. If I remove a couple that are on long, long term inop status it jumps all the way to 1989.5. And there's a cluster at that year, too - four 1990s.
Three vehicles.
1990 Corvette
1996 Corolla
1997 Chevy C1500
Averaging out to 1994, or 29 years old.
I do not foresee anything newer for me on the horizon. I'm happy. If anything, the Corvette will hit the block and be replaced by something older.
Average fleet age for me is 30.3 years old. Fleet vintage is 1992.6.
Vehicles:
1979 Trans Am
1979 Power Wagon
2020 Forte GT
66 Bonneville, 67 LeMans, 06 Express.
That makes 1979.66666

2000 Miata
2013 F150
2004 MINI Cooper
1960 El Camino
1931 Model A
1979.6. Curtis and I are identical. Average age 43.4 years old.
Average age of 27. Oldest is 1986 and newest is 2011. I have 7 from 1990 and a few from other years.
Ok this is bad

2011, largely driven down by the 1996 Miata.
Without the Manic Miata the average age is 2016.
2015 Forester
2001 Tacoma
1994 Corvette
1989 MR2
Average 1999.75
So about average for here. Highest mileage 258,000 Tacoma, lowest 60,000 Vette.
2 10 year old dailies and a 57 year old project car for an average age of 25 2/3 years. Doing my part to drag up the age of the average car on the road since 1996!
