*"Studies have shown Motor Trend enthusiasts influence an average of seven new vehicle purchase decisions a year."*

Umm, what? By MT enthusiasts, do they mean readers? And by readers, do they mean car enthusiasts in general? As in us, the last group of people who care about cars and know enough about them to give advice on purchases?

I can personally vouch that my car advice is ignored at least 7 times a year.

7? Not 7 percent or 7 out of 1000 or something else?

I probably influence 7 purchase decisions a year!

I love being slapped in the face by huge banners. This thing took up at least 7 of my screen. 7!!!

I damn near had to fight my mom to sway her from the GMC Terrain. She's not ready to buy, but she likes the Terrain for whatever reason and I know it's not the right choice for her.

Wow, 7. No wonder the big manufacturers are scrambling to get their ads in there. That's like, almost 8.

I think they mean each individual "Motor Trend enthusiast" accounts for 7 a year.

No apologies necessary my good man. You did not make me click on the link.

I hope so. That's a much bigger number than just 7.
