I actually like these stupid things. The one I drove felt exactly like driving a basic Civic from the same era which isn’t a bad thing in the grand scheme of things.

Then in a couple years we’ll get our daughter an xb for her first car.

I seriously didn’t know the sun roof was over the back. What the hell?

Yeah idfk at first I thought it was mislabeled as having a sun roof. Could be worse.

I love the Element. I just wish it got better gas mileage. But that can pretty much be said of every SUV.

Yeah frankly I’d prefer the fwd version for the extra mpgs

I’ve never ever liked these.

But I LOVED their ad campaigns.

Just a little pinch?

I don’t believe I’ve ever seen the commercial or what they are implying in it haha.

But ... suicide doors?

I genuinely like elements. Always have. An old HS buddy of mine had one. It fuckin’ ruled.

Seems like a good dd and family hauler.

How come every Element has nasty crud on the HVAC knobs??

very vulnerable to crabs, they even recommend you carry around some melted butter and tongs to scare them off

All gray Elements should be called Elephants.

Other than that, great cars/SUVs.

I didn’t know these were four seaters, that’s kind of a pain.

My wife’s ‘02 Si has 40,000 more miles and same transmission and original clutch. My impression is the Honda K manual drivetrain is good for 250,000 miles easy. This car is just broken it. I bet it drives without a rattle.

PS, if there is knocking sounds going over bumps, replace all four sway bar links. Rock Auto, $55 for a set.....

Why would that be a pain?

Did you know that elephants are basically made of four elements?

Well if you need 5 seats it is...

Yup that would be an issue.
