A New Home for the Element


Our Honda Element was getting sad and lonely sitting covered in our driveway. We seem to always be driving the Insight around town as it gets great gas mileage. The Element did pretty well for a small SUV but we felt another car would be more practical. A nice, young, hardworking couple with a little boy purchased it. We met them at their bank and exchanged title for funds. I think they are quite happy with getting a like new vehicle that will get much better mileage than the vehicle they had.

On the way home, we stopped and put a deposit down on a Honda Fit. They've been around in Europe as the Honda Jazz. Honda just "rolled them out" yesterday. Of course, the dealerships only have one or two and not with what we want on it. So we just test drove one and left a deposit. We should see our new Fit sometime mid-May.

It was kind of sad to drive away from our Honda Element. I really liked it. However, selling it to nice people made me feel better.
