New (to me) Daily Driver...
 

Heheheh...








It's got two regular doors...









It's got a tailgate...










It's got 4wd...









It gets far better gas mileage than the trucks that I have...











Ok, it's a Honda Element... really 4 doors (two suicide), really all wheel drive, not 4x4, but you get the picture...
My neighbor has already asked for my "Man card" back, so I expect nothing but ridicule... so let the bashing begin... :D

Below was the other night when the rain turned to snow... It would ALMOST fit on the back of the truck...

And yes, last night I got the first speeding ticket in it... :o

Dude, you gave up your man card years back! .... Remeber you have a blue YJ..;)

Hell, I drive a mini van !?!

I like the Elements. I'm trying to talk my parents in to getting one. Very versatile little vehicle. What kind of gas mileage are you getting/expecting??

fag.

If it's not a CJ, Samurai or FORD I'm not going to be crazy about it but I hope it works out well for ya.
Nice looking rig really.

why not a fj cruiser? i like them better and there more off roadable

I've been getting 24-28mpg, and (as I mentioned about the speeding ticket) I haven't been "letting the grass grow"... The all wheel drive has been getting a workout in the rain as well... (rear axles about the size of my pinky... HA!)


Because (and you'll have to have faith for this one) I have an offroad rig... a purpose built trail vehicle, I know that my opinion is just that... but I would never want to subject a daily driver to what I do to a vehicle offroad... as my parent's used to tell me I'm "rough on things"... I believe even our Tresurer Bob will agree... last time he was in my rig, I jumped it off the lip of the creek right there at camp with the Dana60 about 3 feet in the air... BLAM!! ...trailer queen forever.


This one is my fuel efficient daily driver... this fuel efficiency thing is what took the Wranglers and FJ-Cruisers out of the mix... they can't touch 24-28mpg in a 4.0L or even a 2.4L (which I see is 18-ish... not much better than the 5.3L in the GMC)

Besides, I'm cheap, I paid cash for this one, and couldn't get close to what I paid for an FJ-Cruiser... They're just too new... I found 1 that was in the range I wanted to pay... clicked on it, to see salvage title in all caps... and the thing was STILL WRECKED!!! Front and rear just DESTROYED... ummm, no.

Do I dig the aesthetics of the FJ's more than the E... yep, but I guess I'm just not that discriminating... :D I also have two kids, and the rear suicide doors beat the pooh out of strapping them into a Wrangler back seat.

It's official , Brad you just lost 2 cool points !



Bob please note this in the books.



Hehehehe , just Kidding there buddy :D :D

Now THAT'S what I thought that I would hear...

Thanks Sarge, I'll remember that when I'm pulling your vehicle and/or parts back to camp. :D

Or maybe I'll just start ripping on Camaros... hehehe

hehehehe , so this pull'n junk back to camp is going to be in what year ????????

like a go-cart with headlights.................they are good on gas and right now that seems to be king!!.................it sucks bad for the diesel folks I'm kinda greatfull NOW that my excursion is NOT a diesel like I was looking for when I bought it but a V-10

let them poke fun I say embrace it make it your own get some autozone spinners and pimp it all over town!!

thanks 77... I'm having fun driving it, beats the crap out of an auto trans truck.

I hear you Sarge, I'm just not listening...

yeah you do ! and you think about it at least once every time your driving it ! :D :D :D

It's funny that Carwash calls you a FAG and yet no response on the board to him ...... HMMMMMMM !!!

definitely a flamer

Who? Me or CW...?? :confused:
And do I know you?

Sarge, I've learned not to let CW's "online persona" interfere with my opinion of him. :D

Must be CW he is not affraid to get his knees dirty......:eek:


Sure beats a mini van.

I'd drive the crap out of that thing as a daily driver..:D I've always liked them.
and 24 mpg..wow.. My wifes amigo only gets 14mpg..
