Yesterday I received my 2009 Element EX. It is Crystal Black Pearl. I have a tendency to buy black vehicles. We traded a 2004 Mazda6 s Sportwagon with 127000 miles. I drive a lot of miles for work and this car just doesn't like the snow, slush, or wet roads...lol. Last winter was the last straw, as I was going down a slight grade at 15 miles an hour on the interstate, the car went into a full spin and I wound up staring into two lanes of traffic that included a semi. Thank goodness they were able to stop, as we were all going slowly. I got going in the right direction, and went about 1/4 mile and went sliding...ok, I knew it was time for a 4WD for this girl.
I loved these E's when they were first introduced, but husband didn't like them. Not enough power for him...and now they have bumped that up a bit and he likes them now. I have had Chrysler Concorde, PT Cruiser, the Mazda and now this. I am taking some flack for not buying American blah blah blah. My retort is, Element is assembled here and after having major issues with Chrysler vehicles, I am done with American vehicles.
Thanks for having this forum, I look forward to reading the posts and learning more about the Element!! =)
