Proud owner of a brand new 2008 Honda Element

[maco]

[quote john dough]My wife and I were looking at getting the Toyota Highlander but ended up with a Honda Element, as we found it easier to drive, park and keep clean (it has a rubber floor, which is GREAT for taking our dogs or bikes in). The kicker is that we spent about half of what we would have spent with a comperable Highlander. I know it is a different vehicle than the Toyota, but for 90% of the space and comperable mileage (and probably less to insure) we got the car that can carry a lot of cargo yet is easy to park.


Congratulations. Can't figure out how it would be 1/2 of the price of a Highlander?
