I would like to hear any thoughts on the Honda Element. I've been eyeing one of these for a while but have never really had the opportunity to inspect one up close. Typically I stick with NIB vehicles to avoid hassles with repairs but I'm thinking about stepping outside my comfort zone as this thing on paper looks like the ultimate pin mover. It would not be my daily driver but I would be using it for long hauls. Most curious to hear how sturdy the tailgate is for supporting the weight of a pin(looks wimpy in pics). Also wanting to hear thoughts on the overall reliability and repair issues you may have had. I'm looking forward to hearing your experiences and opinions. Thx.
