Isn't that why I said 50% OR MORE?

And are you including the suburbs in your data?

Also, the vast majority of Hispanics who can't read English don't have the money to buy discretionary toys like that anyway. And even if they did, they're not as likely as a White guy to be interested in winter sports.

Of course I'm including the suburbs, since that's where the bulk of Miami's population is. And is covered by Miami craigslist.

The rest you're right, which is exactly the reason it's a bullshit ad. Who are they marketing to? A bunch of people that don't like cold weather and would have to trailer a sled no less than 1000 miles to use it?

Wow, some people will argue anything...

People, it's a snowmobile 1000+ miles from any area that has enough snow. This shouldn't be that hard. It's in fucking Nigeria.
