  • Great car except for slight vibration - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    I like everything about the Pilot except for a slight vibration between70- 80 mph. This is our 10th Honda product and I have loved them all. Im sure Honda will solve the vibration problem, but in the interim it is aggrevating.

  • Best Value for the Money - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Just bought a 2004 EXL in Sagebrush in So. Cal. for around $29,900 by shopping on the internet. Lots of sleazebag dealers on the internet just trying to get you into their dealership with phony prices, but finally found a dealer that sold one at a fair price. Its a great car that replaces my 1996 Odyssey. All my hondas have lasted over 120k miles with no major repairs, and I expect no less from this one. The kids love it, and it really rides well. Tested the Acura MDX, which is esentially the same platform, but it wasnt worth the incremental $10k.

  • Pilot - Big Win for Honda !! - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Amazing how much room has ben engineered into the cabin. Very spacious and comfortable design. Ride quality is excellent, 4WD performed very well during winterstorms. Fuel mileage is excellent, with regular fuel! Has won so many awards most notably from Consumer Reports 2 years running.

  • BETTER THAN ANY MIN-VAN FOR FAMILY FUN - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    WE WERE REALLY LOOKING AT SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO DRIVE AFTER DRIVING A MINI- VAN FOR 11 YRS.THIS SUV HAS BEEN A GREAT KID-HAULER AND TRAVELER...THE KIDS LOVE THE DVD SYSTEM...NO HEARING "ARE WE THERE YET". WE HAVE REALLY BEEN IMPRESSED WITH THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM SINCE THE OTHER PASSENGERS DO HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE. ALSO, WE HAVE BEEN IMPRESSED WITH ALL THE STORAGE AND SOUND SYSTEM..GOOD QUALITY. THE ONLY COMPLAINT BEING THE NOISE WHEN ONLY THE BACK WINDOW IS DOWN...IF YOU CRACK THE FRONT WINDOW ..THE ROAD NOISE DISAPPEARS...WE WERE TOLD THIS IS COMMON IN SUV...BY HONDA. WE WOULD RECOMMEND THIS SUV ...HIGHLY!!!

  • Great SUV!!! - 2003 Honda Pilot

    We have had this Pilot for only 2 weeks and we have already put 2,000 miles on it. It drives like a dream and the seats are so comfortable and it is so much more quiet than our previous SUV. We drove for 8 hours to Gulf Shores, Al and I was not worn out when we got there! The gas mileage is already better than our old Mountaineer and it is only going to get better. Paid sticker for it and had leather, rubber floormats, foglights added. Love this SUV!!

  • I love this SUV! - 2003 Honda Pilot

    Traded in my old Ford for a sleek new Pilot and it was the best thing I ever did. Smooth ride, good acceleration, and good mileage for an SUV. The only problems include price (supply/demand issue), and exterior finish. I would have preferred to have the door handles be the same body color rather than black plastic. Otherwise, the Pilot is an absolute winner in every respect!

  • Great Vehicle - worth the wait - 2003 Honda Pilot

    Huge Honda fan = Have owned 4 other Civics and Accords Have owned Chevy Blazer, Nissan Pathfinder and most recently Jeep Grand Cherokee Larado..... None compare to the Pilot NOT EVEN CLOSE

  • Off to a good start - 2003 Honda Pilot

    The Pilot gives a smooth, roomy ride. Lots of storage and cargo room for a midsize SUV. Very pleased with the performance, especially the quiet transmission and acceleration. But we miss the rear door window that opened separately from the door that was on our old Explorer.
