Quote, originally posted by ClunkClunk »Any chance we'll see 2008s included? I'm curious how my 2008 stacks up against my wife's 2007, to my dad's 2006, to my sister's 2003.Funny you should ask--just added the 2008 with the July survey, covering June. The 2008 is right at the minimum, so more of them would be very helpful.
