Dog Jaunt

This will appeal to owners of bigger dogs than Chloe, but I can’t resist telling you about Honda’s dog-friendly Element. It was shown to reporters at the New York Auto Show, and includes a built-in ramp for access to the trunk, a fitted dog bed in the trunk area (complete with safety restraints, a fan and a spill-proof water bowl), washable seat covers, and an adorable paw logo on the side of the vehicle. Honda has not yet set a price on the pet package, and says only that it will be available in “fall 2009.” Check out this video from the Car Tech blog!
