We've finally come to an agreement

Well we spent Cinco de Mayo out test driving the last vehicle on our list. Turns out that the Honda Element seems to be the perfect compromise of our tastes.
It has more cargo space than the Scion xB and gets better gas mileage than the Aztek. We lose out on cost considering the hefty rebates you can get on an Aztek along with my step-father's GM discount. The price doesn't really come close to the Scion xB either with alot of the same standard options.
The kicker is, we were both so pleasantly suprised at the Element's feel, performance, and flexibilty, we both agree we'll be happier in the long run even though the extra cost will be a bitter pill to swallow for both of us.
We've agreed its the one we want, but I am sure will have some trouble agreeing on options. Its always an adventure when making big decisions so its a damn good thing we love each other as much as we do, or we'd wind up duking it out on the floor. (I'd win that one but would feel really awful afterwards...)
