I’m planning on getting a Honda Element in the next few months.

Interesting. We were thinking of a minivan type thing and I didn’t think of that.

Scions are cool. I was thinking of getting a Scion xD but it was too small for my needs. How does the vehicle handle. Have you tried driving it on a windy day? That would be my concern: that it would act like a sail on a windy day…or when a semi zooms by you.

Think of it as a mini minivan, if it helps. ;) My wife loves our Honda Odyssey so much I’ve suggested she might like a boxy car next, so she can enjoy the raised seats.

I know these types of rides are targeted by the manufacturers for 20-somethingers, but I’ve found that a disproportionate number of the owners are actually those of us in the late-Gen X / early-Boomer demographic. I’ve had my Honda Element (which was the car that really kicked off the boxy crossover market) for over 7 years now and still love it!
