Don't buy any other SUV
I was going to wait until i had owned my Pilot a month before writing my review - but in this case - why wait! This may well be the best Vehicle (SUV) on the Planet - i traded my 2005 Odyssey (which was the best Mini Van in the world) - loved that one. I expect my Pilot will exceed even that experience. the look, ride, quality, quietness in the cabin, are all superior.
New pilot
After narrowing down the search to the Toyota Highlander and the Honda Pilot we chose the Pilot for its cargo capacity and value proposition. A like equipped Highlander was several thousand dollars more. After a month with the new Pilot we are very satisfied. Comfortable ride, good performance and improved gas mileage (from the previous year). Honda quality is readily apparent everywhere in the vehicle. A great choice

Built for the crowd
I bought this to carry my big family around and it does the job right. The back side look makes it look like a Van rather than an SUV but the front design proves it wrong. All of a sudden, my wheel lights are showing up even though my tire pressure is good. Also, the Oil change light popped up once in a while. The door light also showed up once I was driving and the doors locked.
the best foreign car
This is the first foreign car I have ever bought. I got it at a very reasonable price. It has great mpg, I have got over 30 mpg on the highway and even higher when I'm coasting! I love the bass, it's crazy! You use up a lot of gas when you accelerate really fast, and it kind of sounds like a tank. My son talked me into getting it and I'm glad he did because I love it.
Pleasant Surprise
After testing several mid-sized utes traded in my 04 4-runner. I have owned Hondas in the past so expected the quality. What surprised me was how solid, and capable it feel's driving on rutted out, washboard dirt roads-a big plus for an avid kayaker/mtn. biker/all around outdoor enthusiast in western Montana. On road handling was good enough, but much improved with a set of aftermarket 18 in wheels and upgraded tires, and still rides smooth on and off road! Factory side steps and rack help break up a somewhat frumpy design, and along with the aftermarket wheels gives the pilot a much sportier demeanor. I'm really impressed with the quality, technology, and overall driving dynamic's.
