Haha. Great point. Some of these screens are getting out of control. Honda has a good button to screen ratio. That’s not just the Pilot, most of their vehicles are like that. We appreciate the efforts Honda is making to cater to what a lot of people still want. Thanks for commenting David. We are happy to hear from you mate.
This was fun to watch. I just bought one and I love it. The screen, safety features and seat layout are all great. I also needed power folding mirrors since pulling in my one bay garage is a sobriety test. Thanks for your entertaining review.
Mary! Thank you so much for taking the time to say hello! You picked a marvellous vehicle to drive. The Pilot was a great one to review and we so glad you enjoyed it. Have a wonderful weekend and watch those mirrors. ;)
Jim! You know us. We always like a bit of fun. Whether that’s Brad and Jared having FUN, or Jared making FUN of Brad. It’s all in good fun. :) As always, thanks for sticking with us. It’s great hearing from you Jim.
The Pilot is a sturdy beast of a vehicle. I would definitely not turn my nose up at one of those. In fact, as I'm currently shopping for a vehicle for this time next year your review has certainly put it in my consideration. No joke, the water bottle review is actually extremely helpful. Great job Mr. Silly and Mr. Noisy!
See, we knew someone would appreciate the water bottle test. There are so many cupholders that we felt it necessary. We definitely recommend at least taking it for a test drive. The EXL trim we had isn’t the best, but that Touring model…wow. Very nice. Thanks for watching. Great to hear from you again.
Drive is virtually the same. You’d have to have an amazing sense to notice a difference in drive between the different trim models. We were a little disappointed with the lack of options the EXL had, like no moonroof. The EXL has always been a more premium trim level. The vehicle itself though, is great.
@@HoodSlappersOfficial I think having cup holder review for every vehicle you review going forward would be a nice touch. Could even be a new TH-cam shorts series. I would watch.
Test drove a Trailsport edition yesterday-OMG love it. My 4Runner is ready to be turned over to the son (2001 with 310k miles-time for her to have an easier life). Waiting until dealer gets the Ex-L edition in to see if that trim would work as well. Around here the only 2023 Pilots on the lots are for "demo" use only as they have a 6-12 week wait before you get your vehicle
Oh you nailed it. The name of the game now is wait until it comes in. It just makes it worth the wait. :) If you love the trail sport, you love any trim as the trial sport is intended to be more rugged. Either way, you’ll love your new Pilot. Hopefully your son loves his Toyota too. :) Thanks for watching.
Hey guys what's up with the HDR'ish color grading? It looks strange and distracting... someone forgot where the contrast slider is located 🤷♂️... Content is excellent as always, video editing on the other hand.... meh at best. My first criticism I gess
Art! You used up your one criticism of the year! You only get one. We will have a chat with the team and see what happened. It all looked fine in the final cut, but maybe something was missed. In all seriousness, we appreciate you mentioning it. These things help us grow and become better. Thanks for watching Art. It is always great to see you comment. Have a great rest of your weekend.
You know, we thought the same thing. There is a big similarity to the Durango in the back. Not a terrible thing, but the rest is a little more original. Thanks for watching. We really appreciate it.
This vehicle is hideous imo. Also, you needed to test the cup holders with a Timmies cup- as stupid as it may sound, my biggest pet peeve with my outback is the giant cup holders that are too large to brace and hold down a standard cup of coffee. Great review guys!
Hey thanks so much for watching! Everyone’s opinion is always welcome on our channel. We thought about the Tims cups but there is another TH-cam Channel that does that and we didn’t want to take their material. It’s a great idea though. Unfortunately, they got to it first. :) Thanks again for watching.
No worries. Thanks for watching and commenting. The world seems divided on screens versus buttons. We will see where things go. Thanks for saying hello!
Thumbs up to Honda for a small screen and buttons. Not everyone wants a 60” OLED smart TV on the dash to access AM radio .
Haha. Great point. Some of these screens are getting out of control. Honda has a good button to screen ratio. That’s not just the Pilot, most of their vehicles are like that. We appreciate the efforts Honda is making to cater to what a lot of people still want.

I said same thing when I drove one yesterday!
10” would be nicer not 60” screen 😂

@@HoodSlappersOfficial Why is the EXL not as good? From a driving perspective, is the touring that much better?

That’s actually a great idea. Why couldn’t Brad come up with that?? Ha.
Thanks for the advice.

The flush rear hatch guarantees that a minor bump will cause major damage to that expensive part. A revenue stream for Honda that costs the consumer.
Unfortunately that’s pretty common these days from all the brands.
We will have to see how it all unfolds. Thanks for watching.
What color are the buttons?
Great question. We can’t spoil it for our viewers though. :)
Thanks for watching.
Back Reminds me of Durango? Beautiful truck tho

Of course it has cupholders and buttons!
14 Cupholders! Blimey that’s a lot. The right amount of buttons too!
Thanks for watching.
That 9inch screen in 2023 for a car that costs over $50K, ouch . Excellent and fun reviews. I like the reviews not the pilot
No worries. Thanks for watching and commenting. The world seems divided on screens versus buttons. We will see where things go. Thanks for saying hello!
@@HoodSlappersOfficial yep you are right
It’s bad EX-L doesn’t have moonroof
It’s hard to believe. EXL always had the moon roof. Times they are a changing. :)
Thanks for watching.
My favourite, yummy YT Daddies!
Thanks for watching!
I make 8, guess your wrong.
What do you make 8 of? We are very curious. Thanks for watching Kip! Have a great week ahead
