Element vs. Rav4
 
What a dilemma. I like the features and look of the Element. On the other
hand the bigger engine and better gas mileage of the Rav4 are appealing.
The Rav4 also has some features the element does not have that I like i.e.
telescoping steering wheel and adjustable driver's seat.

The problem with the Rav4 is it just looks so plain vanilla. That and the
fact my 75 year old aunt bought one keeps me on the fence.

Put a mob hit on your aunt, and climb down from the fence and take her RAV4.

No more 4wd or awd vehicles for me thank you. Too expensive to maintain for
the return.
