car shopping!

so for the past 3 years of college i've been surviving without a car. it hasn't been a huge issue thanks to wonderful roommates and st. cloud public transportation, but i feel that it is time for me to get one for many reasons. 1) i'm sick of weirdos on the busses trying to talk to me. 2) i have student teaching and other field experiences coming up in school that i actually need a car for. 3) i think it's about time i chauffeur my roommates around for a change. 4) i would like to be able to drive to see relatives in mn that i very rarely get to see. i know that there are more reasons why getting a car is necessary, but these issues alone are enough more me.
my number one choice of vehicle would be a honda element. i am very much an outdoors-y type person, and would love to have the space for friends and other obvious reasons. the gas mileage isn't great, but it's pretty good for an SUV, and because i am in school most of my driving will close-range.

so, the point of this post...have any of you ever owned a honda element? even a honda? did it hold up well? what are your thoughts on this vehicle? ANY advice helps. :)
