Honda Element LX: An eager do-all, versatile and friendly

Honda is known for conservative, economical mass-market vehicles, but every so often the company goes off the deep end and offers up something quirky or wild, like the S2000 sports roadster or the brick-shaped, category-busting Element.

What can you do with a vehicle like the Honda Element? Well, pretty much anything. This round-edged box probably won't set the fashion world on fire, but it can tackle just about anything else. And best of all, it's Honda under the unusual exterior.

Nice FYI post. They were a little critical of the E.....:twisted: Some find it hard to admit this truck rules...:rolleyes:

Picture caption: "five passenger".:shock: And yet again "hose it out". It's too bad. Who can you trust on automotive reviews when you read such well meaning but such misinformed reviews? The public is short changed by reviews like this one, and you wonder if they get ANY car review right.

Lx! Lx! Lx!

I found the author's email address and made an attempt to squash the continuing "just hose it out" rumors.

While searching for his email address I found two more Element reviews by him that mentioned the same thing.

Update: He responded within 30 minutes and thanked me for the correction, he got the info from two different dealerships. He also mentioned that he was seriously considering an Element purchase himself, so I invited him to join us!
