Pros and Cons of the 2004 Honda Element

Why the Honda Element?

Exterior styling: I like the plastic panels. Easy to keep clean.

Color choices: Like the orange color. It really stands out in a crowd.

Cargo capacity & towing: It has great cargo capacity. Have taken lawn mower in for repair in it. Hauled telescopes, chipper, bags of mulch, a big screen tv.

Reliability & durability: It has been a very reliable vehicle with little trouble.

Why Not the Honda Element?

Fuel economy: Wish it got better fuel economy, but what do you expect for a brick?

Quietness: The interior is rather noisy. It is hard to carry on a conversation with someone, especially on the interstate, wind noise, tire noise.
