Only had the E for two days, and here are the first shots I've got of it:

you know what I love about the Element.(for skiing) I push the front seats all the way forward, and I get ready in the back, you can pretty much stand up to put your boots on, there is so much room back there.


pray for snow

You can stand up? Yeah with the roof removed right, how tall are you? If you can stand up in your E then how do you see over the dash to drive it? No offense, being 6' 4" tall I can't stand up in much, just jealous.

I'm 5'10" (or a hair under that). I can "crouch" around in the Element. I like that feature enough, that I'm reluctant to lose the mobility that a large armrest or console would prevent.

I said I can pretty much stand up, I'm 5'9" and I can stand up enough in there to change a pair of pants with no problem. I love how open it is.

But I'm 6'0", so I'm thinking it's not gonna work so well. I do love being able to sit on the tailgate and get my boots on. My truck tailgate was just too darn high off the ground, kinda dropped my feet in and hoped my aim was good :wink:
