So you go from "Apple owners tend to have higher income than Android owners" and extrapolated that to 95% (or greater) of new car buyers have iPhones? That's still an outrageous leap. Do you legitimately think a poll of members on this forum who either own or are buying a Rivian would result in 95% iPhone owners to 5% Android?No, I'm saying Apple's marketshare goes up with wealth.
e.g. business insider:
Given that apple's overall smartphone marketshare is ~60%, pretty save to say that trend continues up curve.

^iPhone owners have a median income that's 40% higher than android users.

Here, you can clearly see that some of the high-income states — like Alaska, Hawaii, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Massachusetts — appear to heavily favor iPhone. In those states, iPhone has more than 50% of the market share. But in lower-earning states, like New Mexico and South Carolina, iPhone only has between 35% and 40% of the market share.
This certainly doesn't mean that all iPhone owners are rich or all android owners are poor, just that, as I said, their overall marketshare does not indicate their marketshare among people that can afford to buy new cars (especially $100,000 trucks that aren't designed to do real truck work).
