Hello everyone! I am a new owner of a gently used 08 Element, for five whole days now! I have been exploring this site for a couple of weeks, learning all sorts of cool stuff-though I still don’t get the “cookies” reference yet-can I get some help with the secret handshakes and what-not?;-). I knew that the time to part with my 02 Toyota Prius was drawing near, and I have been guilty of toaster worship for many years, since I first saw that beautiful box fly past me in all its glory. As my first gen Prius began to poop out on me, I knew all the research I had done on my own and through this newly discovered site was going to pay off. I love-love-love my new ’Elle-May’, and though it is very different from my Prius, I wouldn’t trade it for all of King Midas’ Silver! I can not wait to start doing mods and I'm already thinking about custom paint colors...green, orange, purple

Are you thinking about something along these lines? Welcome to the mad house and don't worry, someone might come over to offer you some cookies (or maybe Kool-Aid)

Of course, you will get cookies only if you post a biger picture of that cat of yours!

Welcome!

(You'll need to post pics quickly to avoid the wrath of a mob of E-Owners wanting to see!)

Welcome!

It has been about 1 hour sense you have posted and we have yet to see any pictures! Whats wrong with you man!

Bah! You are obviously pulling our leg as I do not see an 08 Alabaster EX belonging to you anywhere in this thread! If you have truly been on this site for weeks (and even found the reference for cookies), you would have known posting pics of your E was a requirement for every introduction.

LOL Welcome to the EOC, diabolicalgirl!

Post pics!

Congrats on your new "E." Purple goes well with silver-----looking forward to your mod ideas.

Holy Toledo! I should have known better about the pics! Took some when I got home but then got busy with all my babies(pets).

 

[ElementaryEd]

Sweet! Congratulations on your new ride!

Here, I fixed it for you-

 

[NV_05_AWD]

Are there any "new" cookie hiding places in the '09?

 

[Snuffleupagus]

There she is!

Sweet looking E!

Fine, now we have pictures of your E (THANKS), but WHERE ARE THE BABIES????

 

[diabolicalgirl]

here they are!

Suki is my border collie, 7yrs old. Axlegrease is my mini aussie shepard, approx. 4yrs old. 4 cats, Houdini, named because as a stray he wedged himself into a body panel of my 84 Blazer and couldn't escape. Kiki, raised from about two weeks old after being abandoned by her mom. Pumpkin and Snowflake are sisters that I adopted along with their momma-Coco, who now lives with my mom. Also, I don't have pic of him, but I have a floppy-ear black bunny Jack. All my babies are rescues except Suki, she's from a breeder, before I knew better. Save a life, adopt from your local pet rescue!!!!

Thanks for the pictures and for saving all your great babies. I am so glad you found us!!! There are lots of E-ple who are involved in rescue. The following is just one of the threads that you might enjoy:

Mine was a stray and has been with me for the past 15.5 years (also crossed the ocean with me).

Nice looking ASM. '07 is my favorite year, too. Texas...dogs...you're going to find a lot of compatibility here. Welcome, even if I'm not from TX nor have a live dog.

Hey there DG...!

Congrats...!

PS: Hey gang... Where's Jojo...? Did she get stuck in the movie theater watching "Zombieland"...? LOL!!!

 

[diabolicalgirl]

Cookies!? Dang it!!!!

Are there any "new" cookie hiding places in the '09?

Everytime I try to visit an old post on the 'cookies' subject I get the Heisman!:-x HTTP 404 page not found, so I guess I will continue to miss this boat.....:-( poop

 

[LunchBoxDriver]

I need help too...!

Hey DG,

Not sure what everyone is referring to... But, if it's new hiding places for "cookies", the actually pet kind, then I would say to NV_05_AWD, there's the cooler console in the '09 between the front seats... Also, there are 1-sunglass and 2-larger bins in the roof console as well... Other than that, that's all I can think of while exploring the innards of my E for things like that...

Hope this helps...!

LBD
