I've been driving the same Element since the first model year. '02? Great little car. Over 100K miles and I've only had to replace the alternator and brakes.
I'm a bit tired of it now, but it was extremely practical. I've transported everything a king sized bed, stacks of pre-hung doors, a full pallet of flooring for my house, a full-sized marimba [my wife is a band director] and when it comes to moving, that thing has ridiculous cubic footage.
You mention the Fit, my wife drives a Fit. Loves it. We drove it up to Montana a few years back and got great gas mileage, although I will say 20+ hours in that thing and you'll have a severe crick in your back.
