That&#8217;s not something I can say for many cars, including most family-sized mini-SUV types. We test-drove CRVs and Liberties and a Ford forgettable-something in 2004, the year we bought the Element, and while all of them had more aero-rounded bodies, they are all designed for drivers 6-2 and under. I would require a contortionist&#8217;s flexibility to drive one of them for more than ten minutes. A tight-space contortionist, at that. I mean, I&#8217;d have to mush my kneecaps into my chin to fit, if I wanted to push the accelerator pedal with my right foot, that is. I suffer severe claustrophobia at the thought of it. And what else is there? Envoy? Hummer?<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, I&#8217;m disappointed. The tall and big-footed life yields regular spatial disappointments, though (e.g., I don&#8217;t remember the last time I went into a shoe store and actually shopped other than muttering freakishly, &#8220;Bring out your fourteens.&#8221;) And anyway, it&#8217;s not like we were planning to buy a 2011 Element. But I hope the one we have holds up for another ten years or longer, at which time I will enthusiastically buy your low mileage used 2010 Element.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>Read this morning that Honda has stopped manufacturing the Element.
