Best family vehicle ever!

Needed a car to fit 2 adults,4 kids, a Great Dane, and a chihuahua and we are too young for a van! Honda Pilot is the answer to our prayers! We have the space of a van without the soccer mom look!

First New Car .... Ever!

Don't let the new body style fool you -- the 2017 Pilot can fit everyone and everything you need! As the owner of a 2010 Pilot, I loved the "big box" and everything about it. It was stylish, comfortable, reliable and solid. So when I went in to have my key fob replaced, I really had no intention of driving away in a new pilot. Sure, it had new features -- but how would it compare to the Big Box? I surpassed all of my expectations. The interior room is unbelievable -- simply the addition of arm rests make me smile every day! Plus, there is so much room ... room for 8 people total plus room for cargo in the back. The technology features are all new to me and I can't imagine life before them. I will say the touch screen is a bit annoying at times and I find myself wiping my finger prints daily. Other than -- no complaints about technology or interior styling Gas milage is at about 25/mpg average right now. No complaints there, either. So maybe it's just the styling of the exterior that kept me away .... but now, I find that I love the new sleek body style when I am driving. Far less air noise and a solid ride.

Love it!

After a ton of research we settled on the 2017 Honda Pilot 2WD with Sensing. We were impressed with all the added features, size, safety, drive and MPG (25-27). We can comfortable fit a large dog crate for our 2 pups plus 6 adults. Absolutely love the car!

She saved my life!

PennyLane did everything she could to avoid the van that pulled out in front of me. By slowing down, deploying all airbags on driver side upon impact and making sure my seatbelt kept me in my seat. Notifying those that need to be contacted. I was able to walk away with a broken finger. I will buy another one
