The end of my Blazer hell.

Well folks, I finally found an Element that I liked. I made a post a while back saying I was gonna get rid of the P.O.S. and yesterday 12/17/05 I did. It's a 2003 Honda Element EX it's fully loaded with a few add-ons. It has the side steps, window vent visors, rear wing, bug shield and a bug screen on the sunroof. I will post pics as soon as I get them off my camera.

Not bad. I was never a fan of the Elements but a new vehicle is a new vehicle. Congrats

Re: The end of my Blazer hell.

I love 'em and have since the first day I saw them!!! I've never driven one - how does it feel power wise? My wife thinks I'm nuts.

It's a little quicker than I expected and handles tons better than my old Blazer. It's rated at 158 horses and 160 ft lbs of torque.

We bought one 5-6 months ago where I work. It is used to deliver electrical supplies, along with several GM full size vans. My boss opted to buy it as our current trucks avg. 165K miles on them and gas is a concern more than ever. The only gripes so far is not enough room to haul longer items, and original tires only lasted 30K. May have just been crappy tires. Other than that it runs and drives pretty well. I notice more of our customers buying them too, instead of full size vans.

Re: The end of my Blazer hell.

Glad its you and NOT me . No amount of ground effects and change the card board box image to me . But each to our own . You will probably enjoy long lasting reliability and economy . I would rather have an S2000 though . But I am not a minivan type of guy . Rob

I wasn't real sure about the wing either until it started raining and the window didn't get covered in road grime.

dmbrisket 51, I'll try to get pics of the Ramcharger tomorrow (12/21/05) and post it up.

jsgold, It probably was the type of tires. Mine has Goodyears and they are wearing even but quickly.
