I'm a happy Element owner and my wife and I love it so much that we
sometimes brawl over who is going to get to drive. The kids love it for the
space and the great view from the back. We love it for a thousand reasons.
Lots of good owner feedback at the Honda Element Owners Club too that might
help you:

Good luck.
