Love my new Pilot!

Love my new car. So far we've had no problems and will be testing it out in the snow tomorrow, if the weather forecast holds true!

Love Honda Pilots!

I just traded in my 2016 Pilot for the 2017. Not much was different. I really enjoy the way the Pilot drives. Very smooth, and comfortable - which is why I will continue to own a Pilot as long as Honda makes them.

The vehicle is large and spacious. I love the sensing package and the passenger blind spot monitoring.

Nicest handling car I have ever owned

Very quiet inside and very nice driving the way it handles is very comforting knowing that the safety features are always looking out for you. Very comfortable on longer drives

Love my new SUV

I went from a 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and I was a Jeep guy, to this Pilot. It drives nicer, the steering wheel does not block any of the gauges. One big change is this. On the day I drove to buy my Pilot, I drove my Jeep through 3-4 inches of snow, plowed most of the way, but not all of it. The Jeep slid in a few places around my rural hilly home. A few days later, after I had brought home my new Pilot, more snow came. I drove in about the same amount of snow on the same roads, and did not slide at all. The enhanced traction control was noticeable. I should add that the Jeep's tires were only about 20,000 miles old, so quite good. I do not love the exterior styling, but it's nice enough. I am a Jeep guy, so low marks there. I have only had the vehicle a month, so I can't speak to reliability. So far, so good, but that is not any serious amount of time.

Poor heating in extreme cold

With the temperatures hitting over 20 below - I have noticed there is NO air circulation on my feet in the front. No matter what the setting is, I cannot feel any air blowing down. This leads to a very extreme differences between the bottom of the passenger compartment and the top.

Most reliable truck I've ever owned.

It was my greatest Valentine Gift ever. The Black Cherry color is gorgeous. Is is spacious, has 6 computers, and handles the road superbly!

My third Pilot

Like it so far, hope it is as good as my first two. Has a lot more bells and whistles than my first two.
