Default Complex if

I may be pushing my luck here, but here it goes.....

I have 3 IF then array statements. They all seem to work, though I don't
understand the output. I am trying to get the average.

1. The first result is an overall average.
2. The second one should be the same but excludes "chevy"
3. The third one should be the same but includes "chevy" only.

I am not sure why the first average is the lowest value. Doesn't make sense.

The formulas (array) a
1.
=AVERAGE(IF('Enroll I'!$H$2:$H$2921=$L$5,IF('Enroll
I'!$H$2:$H$2921<=$N$5,IF('Enroll I'!$L$2:$L$29210,IF('Enroll
I'!$P$2:$P$2921="Treatment",IF('Enroll I'!$M$2:$M$2921="Yes",IF('Enroll
I'!$K$2:$K$29210,'Enroll I'!$L$2:$L$2921)))))))

2.
=AVERAGE(IF('Enroll I'!$C$2:$C$2921<"Chevy",'Enroll
I'!$H$2:$H$2921=$L$5,IF('Enroll I'!$H$2:$H$2921<=$N$5,IF('Enroll
I'!$L$2:$L$29210,IF('Enroll I'!$P$2:$P$2921="Treatment",IF('Enroll
I'!$M$2:$M$2921="Yes",IF('Enroll I'!$K$2:$K$29210,'Enroll
I'!$L$2:$L$2921)))))))

3.
=AVERAGE(IF('Enroll I'!$C$2:$C$2921="Chevy",'Enroll
I'!$H$2:$H$2921=$L$5,IF('Enroll I'!$H$2:$H$2921<=$N$5,IF('Enroll
I'!$L$2:$L$29210,IF('Enroll I'!$P$2:$P$2921="Treatment",IF('Enroll
I'!$M$2:$M$2921="Yes",IF('Enroll I'!$K$2:$K$29210,'Enroll
I'!$L$2:$L$2921)))))))

To make them 1 more similar to #2 and 3., I tried....which doesn't work at
all.

=AVERAGE(IF(OR('Enroll I'!$C$2:$C$2921<"Chevy",'Enroll
I'!$C$2:$C$2921="Chevy"),'Enroll I'!$H$2:$H$2921=$L$5,IF('Enroll
I'!$H$2:$H$2921<=$N$5,IF('Enroll I'!$L$2:$L$29210,IF('Enroll
I'!$P$2:$P$2921="Treatment",IF('Enroll I'!$M$2:$M$2921="Yes",IF('Enroll
I'!$K$2:$K$29210,'Enroll I'!$L$2:$L$2921)))))))
