@@marquisbush8985 its holding up well, i need the head gasket done. She smokes on a 45+ minute drive, ill then add oil once at the destination .. beside thats that shes sturdy
@Royaltybuiltco nice!! I was trying to buy one with 192k but it just sold unfortunately. I'm looking at another one with 253k that I plan on getting on Tuesday and I'm hoping that's not too many miles but it's sounding like I'll be in good hands with it!
I have this same model. Lots of features included. Very strong acceleration but fuel economy not too good. Does not do corners well. But overall, a very impressive package with three rows, electric seat adjustments, sunroof heated seats, navigation good storage etc etc. Love it much
@@enerilove1 for a SUV that hauls 8 I can’t imagine you find one that does better. I get 20/21 mixed driving, 22/23 on the highway only. For what it is I find that beyond respectable.
I just bought a 08 pilot and I love it so far. 200k miles on it and it still cranks perfect runs perfect but I need to replace front struts. Mine also has a DVD player for rear passengers to watch
@Falhawk73 i paid 3k for it Idk if that's a little or a lot for this vehicle but inside is almost perfect (stain at very back where hatch is). Seats work, all interior is almost perfect with exception of a plastic guard at drivers window. Has a dent in drivers door where past owners mother in law backed into it but nothing major. It doesn't use or leak oil or any fluids. We are very thankful to have this vehicle.
Very nice Pilot... my friend has a 2008 EX-L with Navigation as well, with 4WD. They only have 130,000km on it so I expect the car will rust out before the powertrain/engine does! Theirs is burgundy, butu i prefer your black one. Nice tree decals too!
You have a back up camera BECAUSE you have factory navigation-LIKE I DO on my 07 EXL with FOUR HUNDRED TWO THOUSAND MILES. YES that is correct! Unless you have the Canadian built Pilot, you DO NOT have daytime running lights.
Nice pilot! Question did you disabled the subwoofer in the rear after installing the new Sony radio? I own the 2007 4WD EXL with stock Nav and rear camera.
Thank you for the very informative video. I just bought a Honda Pilot 2006 with 190k miles. I didn't have the history of the car, what do you recommend that I should do to keep it in very good? condition
Just gave 3600 for a 4X4 automatic that was completely ragged out in the interior , so frustrating trying to buy a used vehicle right now as everyone is wanting twice as much as a car is worth. It is still nice but MPG is horrid.
Good video. I like the color. I have a 2006 and it has 240k plus mileage on it. I am thi king of replacing my stock radio. Could you which Sony radio you installed. Did you do a video on the radio install?
Hey nice car I have the same one... just wondering have you taken this off road at all? I’m debating if I should try taking mine off road a bit but I don’t want to damage anything either. Thanks
I only have the front wheel drive and I have taken it off road in decently deep sand it did great. I wouldn't do puddles or mud though. I've gotten stuck in even a small amount of mud
Looking at this year/model for a second vehicle (for a first time driver) Handling is an issue with this SUV. This is a small truck that will make you feel extra fatigued after a long day of driving.
Hi, like your review i just wanna a your opinion cuz im buying my first car and i am choosing between 2006 honda pilot with 143k KM and 2006 honda crv with 154k KM. What do u thing is better buying for, hope you see this.
The HRV has much better gas mileage but the car is way smaller and ugly in my opinion. You’d want to think about if you’d utilize the large cargo space in the pilot. But both are great choices
Does this car come with an aux? I can’t find the anywhere to plug in? Also how can I move the passenger seat forward and backwards? I bought this car 4K 189k miles, nothing is wrong but I don’t know if I should replace certain parts just incase?
I don’t believe there is an AUX. However, I can’t 100% remember since I have an aftermarket radio. The aftermarket radio would be a good investment. Should cost lest then $200 for the unit and install if you go through Best Buy Geek Squad. As for moving the passenger seat, you’ll find a very small black handle under the seat towards the left side
How were you able to retain the GPS after replacing the stock radio unit? I could not figure it out when i wanted to replace my radio, but i really like the gps unit. Doesnt the gps connect to the radio?
Hey there, thanks for the review. Would you happen to know the measurement from behind the front seats to the back with all the seats down? I've heard it will fit a sheet of plywood but it looks under 8'. Thanks
Hi, question. How does having an after market stereo affect the navigation? Can you still turn up the volume from your steering wheel? And can you still hear your navi through your speakers?
djfusion83 so I actually can’t turn the volume up or change channels anymore on the wheel. You’d need to rewire the buttons and it was gonna be like $100. So I just reach down to change the volume. It’s really not a big deal at all.
Mine is FWD and I’ve taken it on the beach before with no problem. Definitely wouldn’t attempt deep areas or closer towards the water though. The 4WD model is certainly better too.
I'm the 3rd owner of my 06 pilot with 378k ! I'll be replacing the timing belt, Water pump & tensioner next week !
How's it holding up?

@@marquisbush8985 most definitely! Just make sure that the belt & stuff has been maintained, if it has records , even better!
@@royaltybuiltco thanks for the heads up!

Love it much
Fuel economy is great for an SUV. I drove Explorers for years...my Pilot is a gas sipper in comparison.
Love my pilot hes still good to me... Has all the features... ❤
How do you like that gas mileage though? Im a little weary about that
My Pilot has been great to me too! Cherry Baby is a 2007 Exl with 402000 miles!

@@raysmith8778 3k!!? You are set. Just keep regular maintenance. It will last for years to come.
@@raysmith8778 3k is a great price! These cars are hidden gems. Makes me want to buy a second low mile one for the future. We love ours.
Thanks for the thorough overview. I'm probably getting one of these
Did you get one??

That's 80,000 miles, that's nothing!
Clean love it alot of old cars but in visually great conditions take care of her she will stick around for a long time
Thank you very much for that very straight forward tour of your honda pilot. Very nice condition.
I like Honda pilot because of the engine
You like timing belt?
You have a back up camera BECAUSE you have factory navigation-LIKE I DO on my 07 EXL with FOUR HUNDRED TWO THOUSAND MILES. YES that is correct!
Unless you have the Canadian built Pilot, you DO NOT have daytime running lights.
Nice pilot. How did you get the middle seats flat? I have a 2007 EX-L and couldn't figure it out. Thanks!
Thx for the in depth review
VERY good review!
Nice pilot! Question did you disabled the subwoofer in the rear after installing the new Sony radio? I own the 2007 4WD EXL with stock Nav and rear camera.
Damn, I’m getting my uncles 2003 Honda Pilot with 278,000 miles
The lexus tail lamp looks so modern
Thinking about getting this car as my first car
Daniel Navarro it’s reliable and is my first car as well!
Me also...
I bought one a few weeks ago for 3k. Love it, ride good on highways👌
Yeah same here! I’m considering a 2006 as my first car
Bout to go see one rn, you guys like it?

Why don't you program your Homelink and get rid of the garage door opener on the visor?

What is the (VSA OFF), under the cruse button?
Rcasca1 it stands for vehicle stability assist. Pretty much you can turn on or off traction control
@@jonathanmoraglia255 OK thanks.. We just bought 1. So I wanted o know..

I am not really sure. The people at best buy installed my radio
Ditch the old sat nav and radio all together and get a 10 inch android from Amazon . It gives your dash a 2021 Tesla look .
Hey there, thanks for the review. Would you happen to know the measurement from behind the front seats to the back with all the seats down? I've heard it will fit a sheet of plywood but it looks under 8'. Thanks
with the front seats all the way back, its around 6 ft of space. But I've actually fit 12ft 2 by 4's by going through the sunroof
I have also fit a sheet of plywood. The width of the truck opening is exactly the size and very close but it can fit

The navigation still works and so does the backup camera. The navigation volume works too
@@jonathanmoraglia255 thank you for the great info. I will be changing mine as well.👍👍 Nice car by the way.
i bought a $40 box that allowed me to still use my steering wheel controls. I believe it was "Axxess" branded. It was easy to wire and it works great!
What is its mpg and what’s the volume of its tank
I have same 06 but with 4wd. 130K miles.. 17 city, 21 hwy. 20 gal tank.
Have you done any maintenance to it like wheels bearing suspension work?
No. It’s held up great. 140k miles now
@@jonathanmoraglia255 ah jw mines has 236k and my front end seems loose and needs a wheel bearing in the rear
Would like more info on the subwoofer install
Hi got a 2008 honda pilot for sale the 4wd with 150,000 milles how much can i get for it ,,, any idea ??
Can you fit a sheet of 4x8 plywood in the back with the seats down?
Is off road means like on dirt or sand rock roads like at the flea market?
Very nice review im thinking of getting one of these
Great car!
Is this good for beach terrain? Will it get stuck?
Mine is FWD and I’ve taken it on the beach before with no problem. Definitely wouldn’t attempt deep areas or closer towards the water though. The 4WD model is certainly better too.
How do you like having front wheel drive vs 4WD/AWD?
Aaliyah Daviston wish I got a 4WD. But the gas is a little better on the FWD
@@jonathanmoraglia255 you know there’s awd and 4wd 2006 specs I have awd spec I wanted the 4wd one
Just got an 07 ex-l
Do a 0-60
Lovely SUV
I like it
Do any of the rear seats have a recline feature?
no
@Sergey's Tech Corner I'll have to try again
Yes they do not much but they do recline.. the second and 3rd row..
My Dad has a 2006 Honda Pilot But soon it will be sold

@@anthonywork3788 how?
Whatever, I just rode in one tonight and that V6 will make a man outta you real quick.
I’ve had an 06 for 10 years now. Most reliable vehicle I’ve seen. Low maintenance and has decent acceleration for a mid size suv.
