We were looking to replace my Mercury. I wanted something boxy.
I've never been particular about a car; just the essentials, you know, power steering, power windows, back window wiper, good cup holders, and a/c. We got out of the car at Frank Leta's and I saw this strange
car. It was LOVE at first sight. I bounced around the car like I was on
springs. My husband said, "Well, they know they have a live one".
He's rather reserve and said let's talk about it tonight. I talked. The
next day, I drove it and we bought a satin silver.

It's being assembled Jan 20-26. Then the 5 day window. I've already
made several trips across the river and just had to visit the one they
keep there. I can't believe how I'm acting about this car.

BTW, you may haul your beautiful dogs but I'll cart my gorgeous cats,
2 big Ragdolls. I'm a senior citizen and this is my BMC - Beyond Midlife
Crisis. I guess I can haul my grandson's surfboard this summer when
we visit them.

I hope your wait doesn't drive you TOO crazy! :? Keep us posted on the progress. I'm glad you found us and we look forward to hearing about your experiences.

OOOH I love ragdolls & Maine coons too.. that is so cool i hope they love your new element as you sound like you do!

I was just as excited, i thought I would bounce through the roof! There is something unique and intoxicating about this unusual vehicle.

ENJOY! & I can not wait to hear about its arrival!

According to my dealer, build date is Feb 12-14. Delivery 5 days later.
Silver EX/man. Will get all extras from links on this site. No dealer mark up and install for me.
Traded 01 Tacoma for Element. Waiting Patiently.....NOT. :D

Venture,

good luck with it, and send us pics when you get it.

we also have a 2001 tacoma which we chose to sell outright, instead of trading.. slow going there so far.. but we still should be able to do better than a trade in price..

Happy waiting.. on your Element, i know it is rough!

Judykay60,

Did you get your car yet? Pardon me if I missed your post. I t would be nice to hear of your experience since its slow going for my EL. Thanks
