Hello,

I just traded in my little Beetle for the Element! I have no pics yet because she should be arriving sometime in the next few days.

I picked up a 2007 AWD EX, grey, with only 21K on it! I'll be putting on a lot more miles then the previous owner, I'll tell you that much.

Anyway, I just discovered this forum, and want to ask...as a new owner, what should I expect from my Element?

Thanks!

welcome. you should expect to love and cherish your element for years to come, and it will return the favor with style and dependability. oh and it wants to be modded, it told me so.

Thanks for the welcome!

After the Beetle, I wanted something bigger, but not a huge transition. I drove the Element and was impressed, as I didn't feel like I was in this enormous vessel after being used to the Bug.

I actually haven't officially met my new Element yet, but the paperwork is all done and I'm crossing my fingers that she's in good shape.

Hey Snuff!

I'm in Western Massachusetts. Hello, neighbor!

So I hear a lot about modding. I'd like some recommendations! I'm a city driver, but I do get out there now and then.

Question for the Ma folks...

Hey Snuff and Callie...

Since MA is so small, is it like looking down a couple of blocks to see each other...? Never been to a "smaller" state before...! LOL!!! Just kidding...!!!

Callie, Northern California/San Francisco Bay Area Welcomes to you ma'am...!!! May she provide you many years of service and enjoyment...!

Congrats are in order, just as soon as those pics are posted here...!

LBD

Grr!

My Element will supposedly be arriving on Friday. It's only five hours away, so I don't know what the holdup is. :x
