      I have the same Element as this a 2009 Silver but mine is 2WD, 183,000 but completely mint and rust free…see in New England, that’s pretty rare….

      Затрудняюсь с ответом. У меня 2003 года. Нравится всё почти. ) Кроме того, что стойки обзору мешают и зеркала штатные не дают полной уверенности в манёврах. Уже подрезал пару раз. Теперь делаю это медленно. )

    Rad! It's always cool to see other people's E's and what they've been up to with them..
    Killer Joe w/ yours, and the builds that you do! These things are just so much fun!
    Short background: I grew up a tinkerer - mostly on dirtbikes, then got back into minitrucks..
    Specialized in lifting/lowering, then got into extensive fab, air/hydraulic systems, etc.
    Fast forward: 3 custom shops later, and well over 50 vehicles later.. I spotted the E.
    My buddy Corey scored one, put his CRX / HB addiction on hold, and did up the box.. Awesome!
    I'm a Truck Guy - NOT an 'SUV' guy or 'mini-suv' guy, but the E had ONE THING that set it apart..
    That Rear Tailgate! - Just like the 5th Gen HBs. Hell Yes! Figured I'd snag one eventually,
    and after having TWO Audi TT Quatros t-boned, I drove from NY to PA and cored my 'dream model'.
    2005 AWD / Gunmetal gray exterior / gray interior / 5spd manual. Absolutely flawless mint condition in/out.
    Fred Bean's autogroup - Nissan specifically. Thanks 'CarGuru'! haha
    I think that was back in 2017ish. I kid not.. I've also only washed the thing a handful of times!
    NY winter/salt - It gets driven. NEVER Washed. Spring Cleaned and ignored.. Only driven.
    [Unless I absolutely redecorate it w/ mud when off roading] To this day - Zero Rust!
    I kept it mostly stock - Which is the polar opposite of my norm, but, wanted to make it last..
    [I had / have a game-plan]
    To lift it, I just went with 1 size up past the max sized tires, and the stance rocks.
    Brain's dead, but, I think they're BF Goodies, and super aggressive tread. I enjoy the Hummm
    Grabbed an OEM rack, then threw a full length cargo basket up top..
    -Still planning on fabbing a folding/hinging ladder for the side or back.
    42?K mi when I got it.. And it recently clicked over to about 100K more. Runs Flawlessly!
    Annoying 'hanging brake' sound no matter how many times I fix it, but, oh well..
    So back to the 'game plan'. Everyone's seen the old RedBull-Trucks?
    Mini-Coopers [poorly] modified into micro-trucks w/ the BIG can in the back..
    Well.. Same basic idea for the E. I've converted a few cars to trucks, trucks to convertibles,
    and that idea has always stuck! Like I mentioned before - I'm not an SUV guy, I'm a Truck guy. lol
    It's not just US..
    I've shown a lot of people the E's features - as far as the seat setup / cargo options, etc.
    and more than a handful of people ended up buying their own. That rocks.
    Mine is also daily driven, it's driven all over state land trails, back side of 2 ski-resorts,
    It's been jumped.. okay.. LAUNCHED a few times.. hahaha
    The thing just keeps on tickin'! I think the only actual 'repairs' I've had to do
    where a few complete vtec solenoid setups, and random brake components - for that 'hang'..
    Love it. And I've hung onto to it like 10 x longer than any of the vehicles I've had before.
    This year, I was tempted to tear it all down into an EXO-buggy, but, couldn't bring myself to do it.
    It's just too nice.
    Honda NAILED IT w/ these! I wasn't at all fond of the newer version, but..
    Hope they continue the line - down the line. It's ridiculous that they stopped production
    for as long as they did. **Shrug**

    @harveywallbanger 8 месяцев назад +2

    Really nice Element, probably one of the nicest I've seen. I love seeing all the custom things people do with theirs. It kinda looks like a 2000's Grand Cherokee crossed with a Land Rover from the front.
    I've never actually seen that dog package before but I am fairly new to the Element scene. If there are any other weird or obscure things like that, I would love to know about them.
    I have an '08 EXP AWD in Nighthawk Black, and I love everything about it. Mine is mostly stock but I do take pride and joy in the little things, as my roof rack was missing end caps, the cargo nets were missing, so I tracked down lots of things like those.
    But I am happy to have all sorts of cool features on mine like AWD, the side impact airbags, extra speakers and a sub, the Element floor mats, etc.
    Plenty of minor upgrades to come, but mine runs like a clock, and came with the original bill of sale, including the entire history of maintenance so I am more than happy with it as is.

    I've always admired the Element. Owned a 2000 Insight for 5 years and love it. Just bought my '05 Element yesterday. Glad to find your video. Its a bit ragged on the inside due to animals. Like the guy in video, the people had used it on the farm. There is a lot of work to do under the hood. Read all the records on upkeep they had available going back to oil changes to 2018. All the suggested maintenance they didn't do. I need advice.
    The Radiator has crack on top cover- will need replaced or temporarily do a JB Welds on it.
    Right rear strut leaking - will need replaced
    Both lower ball joints will need replaced
    Horn not working - SRS indicator light is on - possibly clock spring will need replaced
    Both front seats have tear
    CD player not working - Radio works
    Glove compartment does not lock and the cruise control doesn't work or light up.
    I asked when they last changed the spark plugs. They didn't have an answer for that.

    • @StephenAldaco
      @StephenAldaco  4 месяца назад

      First thing I would do is address the radiator and ball joints. You want to make sure the car is safe before taking it out of the road. Sounds like you must be pretty handy so good luck with all the work and welcome to the element community! If you need mechanic recommendations let me know.

    I had a 2007 Element EX which I loved. The gas mileage not so much, and the rear wheels always looked like they flared outwards. Other than that a great vehicle!

    What rearview mirror is that? I just hit a deer with mine and was looking to buy a new one, but think I'll redo the front end as there was no frame damage and after changing the radiator seems to work fine... 03 just at ~299400 live these things!

    Quick Question - I guess for Everyone:
    I already threw a rear hitch on my E, but, I would rather have run a Front Hitch..
    I have a motorcycle rack, and haul a few different dual sport bikes..
    While I 'could' throw the smallest one in the back, and larger one on the rear rack,
    Wouldn't it be nice to have a front-hitch / rack, so not to be limited to only hauling via the back?!
    I couldn't find anything.. Zip, Zilch, Nada..
    Checking the front end out, I sorta' see why, but..
    Has anyone done - or know of anyone who's done a custom front hitch setup on these?
    I design/fab/weld/paint, so easily done - IF I was still in a shop, but, not anymore..
    So just looking for potential options if there's already a 'good/safe' way it's already bee done/tested.
    Thanks in advance either way.
