Chevrolet owners is dumb.

13% of Chevrolet owners have not used the internet.

Only 35% have a college degree.

Here's a link for the 5 of us that a) Have seen the internet before, and b) Can read.

Sorry if it's a repost...I promised I searched first!

So I guess Chevrolet needs to spend more on advertising at convenience stores and fast food franchises?

Kind of like how Costco parks new cars outside of its stores as part of its auto purchase program--you know, pick up a 96-pack of TP, 6 gallons of milk, and an '09 Audi A4.

Chevrolet could do something similar, maybe with Walmart?

While the use of the internet doesn't necessarily mean much to me, I do find the statistics about college degrees pretty interesting. But in all truth, given that education is tied to money, people who are making more money are going to get something like a Lexus instead of a Cobalt. It doesn't really explain the gap between college educated Toyota owners and Chevrolet owners though. I would like to see the actual numbers.

I think the desparity for the college numbers have to do with the sales of trucks. As we all know, Chevrolet and Ford are rely pretty heavily on the sales of trucks and many of those truck buyers are probably tradesmen who did not go to college but still make a pretty darn good living. Not to mention farmers.

No, we got those people. They need to go online. I have been seeing tons of Camaro and Equinox ads online. Maybe it is because of my cookies.

Those ubiquitous GM related websites dedicated to LSX performance aren't exactly geared towards Mustang enthusiasts...
