Yeah, it's not a truck, but honestly, it's what most folks really need rather than a full size truck.

I'm seeing quite a few Elements on the road, IMHO, they're ugly as hell.

That's why there're vehicles called compact pickups that can actually HAUL stuff and go off road AND get decent gas mileage.

Toyota Tacoma Double Cab
Nissan Frontier Crew Cab
Chevrolet Colorado & GMC Canyon Crew Cabs

I suspect the buyer demographics will reflect a lot of female purchasers.

You're right, compact trucks are much more versatile, but 95% of mid/compact trucks I see are empty, and the hauling they really do is pretty minimal.

Doggone it, I just made the fatal error of attempting to apply logic to US vehicle purchases, the country that has soccer moms driving H2's:D

Sorry but I kinda like it. It probably will drive nice yet I can throw my mountain bike, surfboard, motorcycle, in the back. Might be a nice move from my accord =]
