#4653 of 4704 Ramblings by tundradude Nov 12, 2007 (8:28 pm)
It is always good to see the problem areas of the past owners as well as any unique experiences. Actually, reading the site is a nice break from work. It appears we are the only two on the site though. The element is around 1600 miles and averages 22 mpg. I can't wait to test its trip mpg which will come in December.   Actually, it is going to be quite nice to get to drive my xB next week.

Not sure if I have done this yet, but mine (actually my wife's) is a LX-2WD with fog lights, mudflaps, cargo mats (rubber in front and middle) and carpet in the back, and a chrome tailpipe.   The Element is our family car. It replaced a 95 Corolla. I only wish I still had the Corolla's mileage. LOL Replies to this message: bigfur (Nov 14, 2007 4:17 pm)

I might actually get enough miles on it thru driving it over the Christmas Holidays that it might need an oil change.   Put new tires on my Scion, it is much smoother. It had Goodyear eagle LS tires, otherwise awful. However, the tires did last 19000 miles. The new tires are Yokohomas.   From reading all of the posts earlier, the Goodyears on the Element is a mixed bag but most of it is not encouraging. I just may save some money and put some Michelin LTX M/S's on it (in time).   I have a Silverado also and it gets 15/18. It's a 93 with a 350. I can't wait to test the Element highway mileage.

I have a honda element and i work at a honda dealer...trust me, i have seen some that people have gotten a little wax happy...it is not a good look.
#4658 of 4704 2007 Honda element wiper speed problem? by danielement Jan 25, 2008 (12:59 pm)
Has anyone heard of an issue with wipers speeds not working properly in cold weather? Where the fastest speed is not any faster than the slower speed. Thanks
#4659 of 4704 Moon Roof Bug Screen by gwillikers Feb 12, 2008 (12:19 am)
Just bought a new (to me) 2006 EX-P---just over 8k miles. Would like to find a window screen for the moon roof to keep the bugs out. Seems like the perfect thing for camping, but no screen means lots of bugs. Anything available? Thanks. Replies to this message: steve_ (Feb 12, 2008 10:43 am) bjgw66 (Feb 12, 2008 1:33 pm)
