The end of the Element

I seen one of these in Silver with two pieces of giant toast sticking out the top, as a rolling advert for a diner!

 

So you're were the person driving that rolling toaster.

 

WE all have our prefernces when it comes to cars and I can respect you/Mark liking your "Toaster". I tease you for the fact you have a cool old wagon just like mine........A wagon I get teased about almost daily at work


I still think it's a toaster's eliment

 

I get a kick out of the way people in Rural Nebraska react to it too. You'd think it was dropped to earth from a UFO.

 

Joke away... Do you still have that Buick dog dish?

 

He eats out of it.

 

Yes, I doo have that dog dish.......

But remember, I posted pics for you way back. It's a "at least I have 4 of them now", not a "awesome, I've got 4 again" when it comes to condition.

 

I remember and that's fine with me. If the price is right, who can be picky? I wouldn't be as concerned about losing it this way, AND, it is more about just having #4.
I'll be posting about 40 pictures of the wagon and you all can figure out which wheel
it will go on.
I'll be in touch, thanks.

 

its funny that this thread was posted. i was driving one last night.
my mom bought an element in 06, and she loves it. i have to say that i really love it too. i just cant break the truck addiction. or i would have one as a daily. the element isn't any longer than a ford focus, but has more interior room than my buick. the fact that the seats fold up and out of the way is very convienent and provides the space of a minivan without the mom-mobile stigma (sorry 300GN i know you love your van). of course the toyota fj cruiser does that too. but it is in its last year too!

sorry boys but it seems like we have only dinky fuel sippers and dorky hybrids in our futures!

 

I never liked the Element; it just seemed too much of a box on 4 wheels with very little style to it. I guess alot of people did like them, though, because I have seen quite a few on the road. No offense, but good riddance, I say!

 

i think one of the big draws is the interior ergonomics. kinda like the Aztec (which i thought was hideous), the interior was so well laid out and comfortable you ALMOST forget how odd the outside looks. i think the aztec is the next gen's edsel!!!

 

It is sort of a unique vehicle, and those never last, good or bad.
They'll be collector's items in 25 years.

 

It looks like a box, just a box that got left out in the rain a few times

Cheers,

Won't be missed

Good riddance. The Element was just plain weird looking, and not in a good way (OK that's a nice way of saying it's UGLY). I wish they'd bring back the S2000 though, or better yet make a RWD wagon with the S2000 drive train.

Cheers,
Ken
