Awesome review of an awesome SUV. This really is a great family car. Whenever you want to take the grandparents out to dinner, seating 8 passengers is so easy. Love the 4WD with locking diffs paired to the strong V6 engine in the Pilot.
i have a 2003. wife beats the piss out of it and it still runs strong with over 150k on it. had a suburban and this beats it hands down. will drive this until it dies.
this car is tank. only problem is third row seat leg space but unlike the toyota highlanders seats you can actually get a LOT more leg room if you move the second row seats up without even sacrificing too much space for that row
Even though it may not be built for off-roading, it would still fare much better on a ragged terrain than a sedan due to its height. Moreover, it has towing capabilities, which is another characteristic of SUVs.
great car in every cornver u look at it ! beautifull shape all around if just the grill got revised for more smooth lines that matches the rest of the pilot's lines frontier ! I've got 2011 and it's the best choice i've made ,
this in a crossover that looks like an SUV, an SUV is meant for offroading, like the 4runner, xterra, land cruiser, ect. this is clearly not its first priority, its a minivan in a boxy shape.
Here is an SUV that actually looks like an SUV. I'm starting to get tired of all those crossovers with their swoopy, more sporty exteriors. Personally, I'd like a car to look the way it's category suggests. There is nothing sporty about a vehicle that weighs over 2 tons.
I don't know why people keep bitching about the design, I feel as if it looks beast.
Just traded in my 2004 Pilot for a new one. LOVE LOVE LOVE this vehicle.
And this Generation doesn't have that ridiculous LONG reach ( no Telescoping feature ) for the the steering wheel like on the 1st Gen !!
I drove an 07' Pilot and its prob the best riding and driving vehicle I have ever drove
We r getting this car at noon today. So excited! We're trading in our Honda oddessy for the pilot. This dealer is very reliable. I luv it
Larry Hirsch why would you downsize
The turning radius on this thing is godlike
I can confirm, I am pleasantly surprised every time.

I think this is the best SUV on the market
Have an 05 love it. Looks better on the outside than the new one but inside of new one is better. Honda is one of te best and Toyota
Best car on the road gives you no issues good mileage and great four wheel drive
I would only consider this car and nothing else.
Remember, coming from a guy who sold cars for 15 years, when it comes to resell value, HONDA HONDA HONDA!

My wife didn't like the pilot until she test drive the 2013 pilot. After three months she still in love.
I know I have one. I like the rear styling and the interior but I'm not very fond of the front. I like it better than I used to though.
I'm think about getting a used 2009 pilot in 2022. cars are so expensive these days
Get it

the 2009-present Honda Pilot is assembled in
Lincoln, Alabama, USA
TheCarArchives American made 🇺🇸👍
We now have had 3 generations after this one in 2020
It's not ugly at all. Personally, I think Honda is better than ford by a long shot. Toyota is great, so they r about the same
I love the honda pilot so much it is my fav SUV. BRENT IM 8
Decreased outward visibility. That's the name of the game with modern cars. I like the old ones with big windows!
The front looks like a cute baby smiling at you. I love it.
yeah me too! i like the design! awesome car, u need to see it in person!
would you ever go off road? if not get the Pilot
this car looks ALOT bettr in person, and in white color
pathfiner 4 liter or pilot 3.5 liter, what would you suggest?
Honda Pilot.
Pathfinder all day
2008 was the best year. Interior and all
Does n e 1 know if honda pilots are good for when it comes to safety such as in a crash??
yes they are safe

good explanation, thanks. so what about overall quality of Pilot? it looks a bit ugly, especially doors are boring.
CR-V and Pilot to great cars from Honda the V-6 is from the Odyssey.....

@1990taw yeah its great for safety
Ford, Chevy,Kia,Mazda are garbage...for suv....toyota, Honda , dodge has the best suv!
Agreed.
It's shaped like the BOX it comes in.
I lvoe the rear of the new Pilot. The 3rd row is also much better

a shame this was such a dog from a standstill. i love the boxy chunky look

such a boxy shape is called "style"?
*sigh* It's BEAUUUUUTTTIIIFFFFUUULLLLLL luvz it
Who is that model who drives all of KBB's vehicles? She is HOT!!!
it is roomiest crossover for 8 person, but don't carry many luggages at once or you can't anyway
UNCOOL! - Jeremy Clarkson
the most ugliest SUV in the world
Bigger then highlander yet less cargo room >.>
pilot
@ekluay ...The "most" ugliest sentence ever written.
Lol, a minivan in a SUV body.
if you're looking for a combination of toilet cleaners and garbage collectors, this is the car for you.
The styling of this car is hideous. One of the ugliest cars I’ve ever seen.
U can't put 24s on dat and be like i pimp its not possible
@carguy379 i agree
Worst design ever, the car hav no arrow dynamic at all it like a giant box on wheels, terrible by Honda.
very dull styling.
@fijiND your mom looks more aggressive.
The current honda pilot is the most ugly suv of all from inside and out. Honda's design is going downhill.
@lapulapu400
not even anywhere close to pilot ,, my brother got 4runner and i always stand tall when he approch ! haha
the ford flex and chevrolet traverse are better choices
I wanna laugh at that
@@bilalghafoor1943 these pilots literally burn oil
Ehhhh, its Japanese... Tahoe or Explorer anyone?
