  Pilot Comes Out On Top - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Fluff - March 15 - 5:04 am

  I researched and test drove all the competitions models and the Honda Pilot came out on top in every area except its weight. You can really feel the weight dragging behind you during acceleration. If this is a problem for you, then the 2005 model may be what you are looking for. The extra hp make up the difference. This "Sport Utility Vehicle" will not take you off-roading or exploring treacherous terrain, but it is the best at being a "family adventure vehicle." Its a super value with the Honda quality and reliability we have grown accustomed to. I am a very proud owner.

  Love it - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By traveler - March 14 - 5:59 pm

  We did a lot of research before we bought the pilot. It has plenty of room and plenty of pep. Compared to the seats in a subaru outback, these seats are great. We tow it behind our motorhome and its really easy to set up to tow. We had a minivan and even though this is a little shorter, everyone is much more comfortable and the ride is great. We dont use the 3rd seat often, but its great to have when its needed. This is our first Honda car (my husband rides Honda motorcycles) and we love it! Last summer we drove 5 hours to Upstate NY with two kids (one is 16, the other is 10) and a golden retriever. Everyone was comfortable and the gas mileage was 23 mpg with the a/c on.

  Disappointed - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Cindy - February 23 - 10:31 am

  Ive now owned my Honda Pilot for 10 months and logged 20,000 miles both in town and on trips. Im finally giving up and turning it in. My major complaint is comfort...my 62" husband and two pre-teen sons feel like sardines on trips. At 510", I can barely stand sitting in the second row seat. My second complaint is gas mileage. Despite a 17/22 rating, Im lucky if we get 18 on trips...initially we were getting 15 in town. When I returned to the dealership they said the mileage would improve after the first 10,000 miles. It has improved slightly, but still nowhere near the stated rating. This SUV is fine for the driver and front seat passenger, but is not a good family trip car!

  a night in bad weather - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Scott Abbott - February 18 - 2:00 am

  I have purchased a 2003 pilot with leather, it is heavy and great handling, 1 experience i had was in the night i found my self heading for a foot of water and when i hit this water at 40 miles per hour, this pilot handled it very well, no pulling to the left or right it handled the situation perfectly, like no other car i drove. this auto is safe in all weather conditions.

  After much debate and testing, we decided we were no longer a Mini Van family. 4Runner was close, but too much money and we did not need the towing capacity. Really enjoy the AWD.

  A Good Choice - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Bell - February 10 - 2:29 am

  Having done a lot of research I decided that the Pilot EX model was the best overall value for the money. It rides nice, has excellent pickup and a boatload of room. My kids love it and as far as reliability or resale value it kicks the pants off of the Trailblazer or the Highlander. If youre not sure, I recommend you drive one and then shop around to get what you really want, a good reliable suv that you can be proud you bought. I am.

  One of the best car investments - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By JohnB - February 8 - 10:00 am

  Its a great SUV. Excelent on gas compared to most cars these days - better than my 2000 Volvo S40 - and that was with a 4 cyclinder engine! Stable, good ride position, basic quality features. Not too fancy - its the best Functioning SUV youll ever own.

  By juan blanco - February 8 - 10:00 am

  The only problems we have had with the car:1. mileage has been lower than advertized (18-21mpg) 2. The recalled water pump (never really caused a problem, but it was recalled 3. The recalled transmission (again no probs just the recall)
