Thanks for pulling that seat back brother...it really lets us know if an adult can fit back there or not. There is a ton of space in that third row. Great review as always...
Just traded in our 2019 Highlander SE for one of these about a week or so ago and couldn’t be happier. Much prefer the Pilot to the Highlander. Hope this helps.
I love how diversified your coverage of the automotive world is! Wow, going from Porsches to Pilot in days, amazing lol😂👌 All this Pilot needs is a Type-R badge 🔥
Another great review Joe. Honestly I think it looks better than the Acura MDX which I don't think even has the upgraded infotainment setup with Apple/Android yet! I hope you are getting your rest and enjoying life outside of this too! You post non-stop videos!
I like the Pilot but the Passport has all the room I need. Black looks good but is hard to keep looking good. Remember when Honda’s were affordable? Nice job Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I like how some hater say " I'm not going to pay that price for a Honda!" Whoever owned Honda knows that it's worth the prices. Qualities, prices and reliability at it best! Oh yeah, best values than most American and European brand out there!
when you sit in the 2nd row, set the driver seat all the way forward, mid and back, same goes when you sit in the 3rd row. we cant see what you are showing in the 3rd row.
Nice but of course there is always a but 360 camera? Side and front camera ? To much plastic in the doors also the arm rest should be longer and the middle you should be able to choose if you want a bench or captain and no ventilation only heat
Raiti who do you think is better 2020 pilot or 2020 highlander. I watched your reviews for both but since you have seen them both in person. please let me know. Love your channel btw
They just add a new entry for the 2021. Its a SE edition. Its between the EXL and the TOURING. Now you can have a 9 speed transmissions from the basic to the black edition. Before it was offer on the touring, elite, and black edition. Now the black edition for the 2021, you have have the white color. Platinum white pearl.
Do you know if the Garmin gps is able to be updated? I typically am not a fan of built in gps from the manufacturer for that reason. Bu this is a Garmin, so wondering.
Some say the Honda is not a Lincoln off course but I like is good car cheap in maintenance that pilot is a sub for 20 years if you take care him but in this time everything brand is expensive, for me GTR or trackhawk is my dream but Joe you’re the best one day I meet you man I’m so glad you are a TH-cam man thanks
The great thing about the Honda Pilot compared to the Toyota Highlander, Subaru Ascent, Hyundai Palisade, Kia Telluride, Nissan Pathfinder, Volkswagon Atlas, and Mazda CX9 is that the third row can actually fit adults. However the black edition and elite trims get way too expensive, the EX-L trim and Touring trim is the best bang for your buck
ChrisKeepItG 513 yes fix your English lol. Yes might as well go for a luxurious suv and get all those things as standard and get more comfortable ride cuz of a better and softer suspension and quieter cabin and a lot more.
Kia telluride interior and aesthetics and features blow this car out the water! Also telluride is roomier overall and third row is much more comfortable! Also has 360 camera which the Honda can’t get on any trim! Also doesn’t have nappa leather seats
Yeah. The problem with Kia and Hyundai is that you are buying a nice vehicle, but that resale price dies off in a few years. And for that price, just get a Lexus or Acura
Every new car resale price drops off in a few years regardless. I’d go with the Kia tell you ride due to a better price and it also has a great engine and doesn’t look like a bulked up minivan
Then remember what car is more reliable.. honda been making pilots for awhile.. kia just started with telluride.. and honda is known for long running cars.
i have a suburban and i've just realized that these "mid size" 3rd rows are actually more comfortable. minus the cargo space, but sometimes u just want to fit your big family and go for dinner.
You know what i thought about you can be a great cnn news reporter the consistency is crazy great keep up the work 👍👍👍 you should do the mazda cx9 and volvo
Hi RAITI .I saw your all videos .I message u because I want buy 7 seater with good space which one will be good suv .actually I want buy highlander or honda pilot so which has a good space
Raiti I like this one bro.... Black on black ? I’m sold. What I’ll do is black out the logo and taillights after I purchased it and get red seatbelts for it “maybe” but vehicle is desirable
Nice vehicle and I dig the new passport but the gauge cluster looks horrible in every video I see is really that bad looking? Has anyone seen the new 2020 VW Atlas Cross Sport. The interior is just amazing.
I still have my 06 Pilot running strong. This is a real nice black edition. Like the Ridgeline Black Edition too. Wonder if they’d ever do that edition for a CRV? At least the CRV hybrid is on its way.
How about some driving reviews, Joe? That’s the next level for your channel. The appearance is one thing, driving reviews would be much more helpful. What’s with Honda and the hood posts? It’s nearly 2020?
I've watch the review of the Pallisade before watching this and to be honest,with the same price range.I like the Pallisades tech features better,the question is the longevity of the vehicle.never own a Hyundai before so not sure about the brands reliability But for the Honda for sure no problem with reliability and longevity of the engine.I owned an accord for the longest time and have the new Type R too and most family members are honda owners.So if ever I'm gonna but an SUV,I will definitely take consideration both the Pilot and Pallisade.
Raiti's Rides the pilot is great but ur absolutely right. The arm rest is a big zonk!! Looks like a mini van-ish. Yes the RDx is better. I enjoy watching ur review on the RDx and mdx. Always on point.
@@jameslayco9 Of course for 50K someone would rather pick the MDX but honestly the MDX looks boring compare to the RDX. I only like the A-specs on both btw. A fully loaded MDX is like 60K tho so you really can't compare. Some people need a bigger third row plus vents in the back as well. Lets be honest tho, for 50K I rather get a Telluride and this is coming from a 19 Pilot Touring AWD 8 owner. I only got my car for only 39K so I was fine with it.
Is it the "ULTIMATE" 3-row SUV?" Uh...no. Lovely version of the Pilot and as long as you have a teenage kid you can assign to washing it daily it will look good.
Hello their brother Joe but again here we go, I just don't have a feeling about Honda SUV'S. Their has to be something about Honda SUV'S that I just don't like idk 😐. Would love to see a 2020 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback / Sedan Manual 1 day. I know you've already done a Honda Civic Sport Sedan review couple weeks ago but it was a CVT. Thanks Joe.
AC vents yes would be nice on the inside pillars, more durable leather seats like Toyota would be nice, cracking like the Grand Canyon in 11 years is not bueno!
@@RaitisRides Always welcome Joe, I do not like the big Black Edition batch in the back, it looks ugly to me but overall this Pilot looks legit all black everything. Keep it going. 🤗
Love your stuff Joe! From Canada 🇨🇦. I’m in the market for a 3 row mom type suv, I just had my hands on a new 2020 limited Highlander. I drove it then I drove the 2020 pilot touring and thought the V6 in pilot was a lot less hard to get the rig going and pick up decent speed even in normal setting. However the 2020 Highlander V6 was working a lot harder in the rpm but still felt sluggish me trying to merge on to free way. The 3rd rom in pilot is pretty decent but the Highlander 3rd row is not a match to pilot. Now I’m totally F^*#ing lost 😭. What’s your opinion on these 2 rigs brother?
Hey! Since its been a year, what did you buy ? I am getting 2021 Black edition Pilot. I didn’t even bother to drive Highlander after sitting inside it.
@@sulavsharma277 pilot is an awesome choice. We waited for the Pathfinder and it was a disappointment too. So I bought a Toyota Tundra truck instead for my line of work. But next is family hauler and it is going to be Honda Pilot 💯 %
Okay, I’m not a fan of all these blacked out vehicles. I like some chrome on my vehicles. Now I know I’m going to get a lot of comments about taking my prunes and sitting in my rocking chair but you need something to accent the color of your car and nothing beats a little chrome for that. Honda should have blacked out the Honda emblem on the tailgate, they blacked out everything else.
I thought Honda was going to completely change the looks inside and outside! What happened Honda? You created a new Accord, Civic and Truck! So I guess the same for the CR-v and HR-v no change!
I'm glad you talk about body lines as they pretty much can make or break a car. Not everyone talks or even notices a cars lines, so nice touch.
Took honda a long time to actually realize some customers dont like chrome.
Sam Lung it was literally the first thing I plasti-dipped on our 17’ Pilot lol. I hate chrome
Thanks for pulling that seat back brother...it really lets us know if an adult can fit back there or not. There is a ton of space in that third row. Great review as always...
Thanks for saying that and your great feedback!
The most honest car salesman I have ever heard 😂
That’s why his following is so big nobody likes a kiss ass
Not a sales man but still a honest reviewer
Just traded in our 2019 Highlander SE for one of these about a week or so ago and couldn’t be happier. Much prefer the Pilot to the Highlander. Hope this helps.
Thanks for sharing that great input from your ownership!
You are welcome!
Its le first and when you get such a low trim you shouldnt expect much the platinum has much more to offer
The visibility was poor, it lacked Apple CarPlay, and was very uncomfortable on trips.
@@connordavis2142 get a higher trim if you went up one trim you would of been able to have all of those features that the le lacks
I love how diversified your coverage of the automotive world is! Wow, going from Porsches to Pilot in days, amazing lol😂👌
All this Pilot needs is a Type-R badge 🔥
Hell YEAH!!!!!
Type R on all of their SUV'S.
Raiti has good coverage from all over .... I like his content ..
@@richki.24 Totally agree with u
That really means a lot!

Thanks Fady for sharing your thoughts and being so caring! I am getting my rest and trust me I am living my dream!
Black color is nice but it attracts dust easily. You have to clean and dust more often than other lighter colors.
This review was great! Looks adults can sit in the back with no problem! Thanks!
I want that USB! And I want it now!😂😂
Keep up the hard work Joe 💰
Thanks for letting me share the laughs with you!
No need for a usb. Just use the world's longest cord. 😂

I like the Pilot but the Passport has all the room I need. Black looks good but is hard to keep looking good. Remember when Honda’s were affordable? Nice job Joe! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Those days are long gone! LOL

How much horsepower do the black wheels add?
I prefer white paint with black accents
All black looks good, only thing I don't like is the dealership white stripes going down the side. Not sure why they put those!
It really don't know why they do pinstripes one cars anymore.
when you sit in the 2nd row, set the driver seat all the way forward, mid and back, same goes when you sit in the 3rd row. we cant see what you are showing in the 3rd row.
Nice but of course there is always a but

Does the paint chip off like previous years
Still looks like a mini van but more impressive. Perfect example of how some styling could have saved the min van.
Does it have a 360 degree surround view camera?
Is the pilot bigger than the Highlander ?
How much is for the Honda Pilot 2020??
Could you get it in a V-tech?
One day I will have that car of my own....
I agree about key with black edition there should be something special not just ordinary key

Btw the black editions interior doesn’t get ‘special black’ treatment on the doors and dash... my 2017 Touring came with it too
Honestly 50k is ridiculous for a Honda.
Legend17 you were say that Ford did better?
Super Trollin I don’t understand what u said
Super Trollin English please lol and yes 50 k is ridiculous for a Honda. Might as well get an Acura or Lexus
ChrisKeepItG 513 yes fix your English lol. Yes might as well go for a luxurious suv and get all those things as standard and get more comfortable ride cuz of a better and softer suspension and quieter cabin and a lot more.
ChrisKeepItG 513 Ford Explorer is worth 60k? Go ask you mom

do you prefer the 3rd row in the highlander or pilot better?? doe the 3rd row seat recline in the pilot?
In the Pilot by a miracle mile.
i have a suburban and i've just realized that these "mid size" 3rd rows are actually more comfortable. minus the cargo space, but sometimes u just want to fit your big family and go for dinner.
How many cilinders and how much???
Good shit!! Man 👍 I love your videos
You know what i thought about you can be a great cnn news reporter the consistency is crazy great keep up the work 👍👍👍 you should do the mazda cx9 and volvo
Thanks for that compliment! I will be getting your requests together!
50k. OMG who in their right mind gonna spent that much on so so SUV. Just unbelievable.
Dont buy new, wait couple years the price is gonna drop half price
He forgot to add that the third row seat in my Pilot also has three reclining levels if you pull on the strap.😬
Tell that to the people that buy GMC yukon and suburban🤷🏻♂️
Hi RAITI .I saw your all videos .I message u because I want buy 7 seater with good space which one will be good suv .actually I want buy highlander or honda pilot so which has a good space

New Pilot looks like a family wagon more than an SUV!
I feel your pain!
Hey Raiti can u review a Ford Flex ? Not sure if u have done one thanks
So the black edition badging is in chrome
It made me laugh!
There’s a 12v in the back you could use to charge you phone for the 3rd row. While using it.
I still have my 06 Pilot running strong. This is a real nice black edition. Like the Ridgeline Black Edition too. Wonder if they’d ever do that edition for a CRV? At least the CRV hybrid is on its way.

Can you keep it in sport mode all the time?
No
is there an option for a bench seat rather than captains for the second row?
Yes
"I'm gonna zonk this, and that, and this, and that."

where's the tire shine?!
the special edition has the same wheels as the black edition
it’s no longer 4x4? just awd?
Yes
It looks intimidating. It's like someone's carrying a rifle inside that vehicle lmao
