  Excellent Reliable Mid-Size SUV - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Shilua - November 19 - 2:00 am

  My new Pilot EXL with DVD is a great car. It runs extremely smooth, the DVD option is great for the kids. The interior feels a lot more roomier than it actually looks. The fold away 3rd row seats are also great. The DVD operation up front is a little confusing, but it could be because I didnt read the manual thoroughly enough. Get the remote starter, it is a life saver during the cold winter months, especially with a baby in tow. Gas mileage is to be expected, exactly what it states, I think 17 street miles per gallon. But thats the price we pay for a SUV! And the Honda name, its trust and security, well worth it!

  Love It! Highly Recommend... - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Nanjo - November 19 - 2:00 am

  Bought this vehicle new in July, after having a new baby. Did much research on SUVs before purchasing. Love it. Took it on a crosscountry trip this Christmas (over 1900 miles) with 2 adults, 2 kids under the age of 2, and all of our stuff along. It performed admirably! We were Toyota people before buying this, but the Highlander wasnt big enough, and the Sequoia was too big and too much of a gas hog. The Pilot fit our needs perfectly.

  Very pleased - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By jshall2 - November 14 - 10:00 am

  Compared to Highlander, Sequoia and new VW SUV and feel it is a great value. However, all the other vehicles were impressive. The size makes the third seat a seat that can be used more easily, albiet the Sequoia has an adult orieted third seat. The Sequoia is however a V8 and with the rising cost of gas the Hondas MPG made a difference in the decision. The Honda has an impressive ride for what is a much bigger car than it appears from the outside. The whole family contributed to the decision and we have been thrilled with our choice thus far.

  Love our Pilot! - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By Joe&Bets - October 7 - 2:00 am

  I bought my wife a Pilot to safely carry our new child (and her!) in the Shenandoah Valley winter, in October of 03. Since then, weve had three good snow storms, and the Pilot never skipped a beat! Driving on the frozen, snowy roads was a breeze. Ive taken the Pilot up to the Appalacian Trail, and the ride up the fire roads was like driving up my driveway. The AWD system works like a charm and is seamless (i.e., you dont even notice it or feel it engage). Weve carried large, heavy loads thanks to the fold down 2nd row seats. Thanks to the NAV system, I no longer have to take calls at work to tell how to get where shes going! We love this vehicle!

  Outstanding Vehicle - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By bostnwhalr - October 7 - 2:00 am

  Ive owned many different vehicles. The Pilot makes you feel like you are driving a much more expensive vehicle, from the instrumentation, the comfortable seating, refined rev-happy V-6, quiet operation, nice ride, etc. Traction in snow is very impressive. Instant AWD, no delay from front to rear. Gas mileage has been just ok at 17-18 mpg, mostly driving around town. Even the 3rd row is tolerable for adults once you get back there, especially since the 2nd row can be adjusted forward for 2004. I cant think of a better family- friendly SUV (unless you have 4+ kids).

  Pilot vs Others - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By GEMW - October 1 - 2:00 am

  I never heard of "Others". This is my 6th Honda and my first SUV. The comfortable ride and ease of handling is comparable to the Accord EX which I previously drove. All my Hondas have been 100% reliable and I have no reason to think the Pilot would be any different. The safety ratings are particularly appealing to me. As I told the General Manager at Wade Raulerson, if Honda ever went out of business, I would buy a horse!!!

  Hoda Rocks! - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By lond - October 1 - 2:00 am

  This vehicle is wonderful. Great about everything. Although it does have two problems-when the road is slushy it wont stop, and the shifter is hard to use. The space is great, and so is the DVD player. Japan is my new car place!

  Honda - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By joeblow1 - October 1 - 2:00 am

  The Pilot is a great car to drive with plenty of room inside, while not giving you that truck feeling. Vision is not impeded by vertical beams.

  Love it! - 2004 Honda Pilot
  By ItsRhonda - October 1 - 2:00 am

  I actually bought this vehicle in July 2002, and almost two years later, Im still loving it. This is the first time Ive ever had a car that I still love after this length of time. I havent had anything go wrong at all. Ive had vehicles in the past that I had problems within the first two weeks of ownership.
