SET of tags? We get 1 tag - it has the month and year on it. CA is sooooooooo complicated. *L*

Serate, you only get the month tag once after you buy a car. Subsequent years just bring the new year tag. So they don't have to make bigger tags each time, I guess. My "DEC" for December tag will be 16 years old this December.

But Vacanick is in California, and here you do have to have both plates on.

What kind of car did I see today? It was very small and extremely boxy. I looked at Mini Cooper web site. More boxy than that. What was it?

Looked at that site. No. Boxy. Like a Jeep Cherokee. Maybe boxier. And of course, smaller. Wasn't close to it, so have no idea of make / model.

I was just looking at those two sites. Yes, very well could have been either. Pics I looked at didn't give me much of an idea of the size of the car. What I saw was very small. Don't remember number of doors on the car. My guess would be two-door, but I don't know. Probably one or the other of these two. Don't think I've never seen them before.

The Honda Element is the boxiest car I've ever seen. And personally, I think it's butt ugly (not that there's anything wrong with that and no offense to any Element owners!). I just can't figure out how a giant box on wheels is aerodynamic! :-)

Yup. The boxiest car I've seen on the road! Not exactly teeny tiny either!

No, the element is not a small car. More like PT Cruiser size if a PT Crusier got all boxy and super ugly. (not that there's anything wrong with that and no offense to any Element owners!) but what were you people thinking???

Oopsie.

Gotta agree with Landi on that one. ;)

The small, boxy car is the Scion. It's actually boxier than the Element, which I didn't think was possible, and slightly smaller than a PT Cruiser.

Scion has modified the body style in the newer models, though, giving them a bit more detail to offset the boxiness. :-)

My MIL has a Honda Element. The thing is unbelievable - you can literally hose out the car to clean it because the floors are made of rubber! It also has stadium-style seating so that the passengers in the back can still see out the front window.

I've contemplated getting one of them once or twice since having Brayden. That helped me to understand just how much sleep deprivation must really impair the decision-making portion of the brain.

Spy, if you are thinking safe and ugly, go with a Volvo :-)

My friend Carolyn got an Element. It's actually very comfortable, very roomy, and oh yeah, very ugly. I don't like taht it doesn't have a full back door.

I love Volvos. I don't think they're ugly at all, but I even love the old 80s style on them.

My mom used to hate the Element. She would call them "toasters on tires" every time she saw one. Then one day not long ago she got rear-ended by one (minor damage). Since then she has kept her mouth shut.
