No regrets!

I've had my 2005 element for 3years. It's had a new belt, oil change, and tires, so far. Not bad for 150000 miles. Cleaning is easy, and good visibility on the road. I do love it.

Funnest Camping vehicle ever

Its a great road tripping car, great on gas if it were an automatic but that would take all the fun away from this vehicle. The plastic material in floor lining is amazing if you have pets; wont have to worry about scratching cushions or dog hair.

Honda Element Performed!

Bought Element with 100K + miles on it- hasn’t skipped a beat. The AWD performed on the elements as well! If i was in the market for a used car on a budget, these dont dissapoint :)

Stylish, Practical and Great Overall Utility Car

If you are a traveler and enjoy driving around town, to the beach, mountains, lake or desert, this car is made for it all. I have the 4-wheel drive version so it is the most versatile version of them all. I love the way it looks. It's functional with fold up back seats, big cargo flatbed area in the back, unique side door openings, and great handling.

Guaranteed go-to to get-to.

This car is fun to bug around in! Required replacement parts for transmission and brake systems. If you?re looking for cadillac smooth ride, this isn?t it, but if looking for fun and adventure...this is your vehicle.
