Honda Element = Gay.

Not me saying it... http://gaylife.about.com/od/gayproductreviews/tp/gaycars.htm

I like the Mini Cooper though... Yikes (5th position), my buddy has one! :lol:

Read comments about the Outback: "The Outback is a long-running lesbian champion."

I love stereotypes... :mrgreen:

Cool thing about an Element is you can probably open the doors and jump a RC car thru it :lol:

X2.

I had an '05 CRV for 2 years, and later traded up for the Ridgeline.

Not one problem.

Both the the CRV & Ridgeline are the best vehicles I've ever owned.

I took a lot of flack from my Ford friends, but I couldn't be more satisfied.

You can't go wrong with anything Honda makes.

I dig the Element, but my wife thought it was fugly..I like it's simplicity, it reminds me of the old VW Microbus.

The top one is more my style, but I don't want to spend the money. I am too cheap. In terms of off road utility, like I said in the first post, it's what I wanted, but again I am too cheap.

tookmythumb said it best, "Don't park your money in the driveway"
