Element* 3,187 5,216 -41.2% 16,728 22,125 -25.0% The -41.2% is May'07 vs May '06, the -25% in year-to-date '07 vs. '06. Looks like Element sales are declining faster now. WHY??

Replying to: otis12 (Jun 03, 2007 12:34 pm) Interestingly, when the Element came out, it never cannibalized the CR-V. This new CR-V is hurting the Element a bit, though. Perhaps because Honda took some risks with the styling this time around, the CR-V isn't as generic any more. Before, anyone who found the CR-V boring would get an Element. Now, the CR-V is a bit more adventurous, and my theory is that's cannibalizing a few Element sales. But what do I know, that's just a conspiracy theory.

HOT DOGS? Considering getting an Element for my two Newfoundland dogs but am concerned about (1): getting sufficient air back to them since the rear windows don't open much and, (2): if I get the EX with the skylight, does the available sunshade protect enough from the heat? I don't know if the AC provides enough power to adequately cool the "dog area." Has anyone had problems with cooling/ventilating the Element?

Replying to: kjaba1 (Jun 05, 2007 7:28 am) If you roll down the front windows, and pop the sunroof up (leave it in, just open it), and open the rear, pop-out windows, you get a pretty good breaze flowing through. In terms of the sun shade, I don't have one, but I was under the impression you weren't supposed to drive with the sunshade in place, but I may be wrong. |

Hi Gang, My Buick Rendezvous is about ready for replacement. About 4 times per year I engage in Roving which is part of an amateur radio contest that involves loading a vehicle with all man manner of VHF, UHF and microwave gear along with antennas for 10 bands. See this for details; just click on Rover at the top of the page. www.buffalo.edu/~msadams Now, my questions are: 1. What is the height from the floor in the rear to the ceiling? 2. What is the average width of the back area with the seats removed? 3. Any issues with Yakima roof racks? That is what I have now. I must say that the Buick has been really good. Lifetime fuel econ with AWD has been 19.5 and I have 75,000K mi on the clock. It is VERY comfortable and the AWD is decent. But Buick no longer makes this SUV and the 2007's were only made with FWD. The bitch of this is that I qualify for GM employee discount and the only GM vehicles that are suitable for roving are $35K to start! I simply will NOT pay that much. Best regards, Mark K2QO

Has Anyone used the Goodyear Fortera Tripletred Tires? If so, did they decrease MPG?
