    I would sign a contract if it makes you feel better. But seeing how this is the internet, its kinda hard. Hope you'll trust me. Plus, mods can delete this thread after i'm done.

    I'm just trying to confirm what i've read online such as the target demographics and hear directly from hybrid owners since its hard to find any hybrid car owners in my city to interview.

    Thanks
    Hector

    There are polls on here that will give you a lot of information that you need. Income is not one of them to my knowledge. Try the search engine.

    I know there is one regarding male or female, another regarding if you would buy a prius again, another on your primary reason for purchasing a Prius, for example.

    You probably won't get a lot of interest in divulging income.
