  • I LOVE THIS CAR! - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    This is a fabulous family car that provides comfort and room without scrimping on safety or aesthetics. For all those out there who refuse to be "minivan moms", the Honda Pilot allows the same seating arrangment (actually more) than most minivans on the market, while also providing the functionality of a SUV without being obnoxious in size or look. The gas mileage is good considering it is an SUV, not as good as a family car, however, its not the same horror stories of the more obnoxious SUVs on the market. The ride is smooth, the kids are happy and thus the parents are thrilled!

    Very impressive! This is a quality built vehicle. Ride is smooth and quieter than our 200 Mercury Grand Marquis! Excellent around town and cruises the interstate effortlessly. (Getting 20 MPG @ steady 75 MPH.) Honda has lived up to its reputation!

  • LOVE my pilot! - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    The same care and thoughtfulness went into the making of this car as the rest of the Honda fleet. 8 seats? That was the deciding kick. Granted, not really enough room for adults back there, but for children, its plenty. There are also many outlets and cupholders. Great compartments and Homelink system for my garage door opener. Odd aspect of design - placement of the windshield wiper control. Easy to reach for this instead of gear shifter. Honda could also take a cue from Ford and put a compass in the car, as well as rear radio controls instead of just rear climate controls. Other than that, I am in LOVE with my new car!

    A Great Value and Great Design compliment eachother quite well. It combines size, power and fuel economy.

  • Let the snow come! - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Accepting the fact that this is not a BMW in exterior design, a luxury car in sophistication, or a true off road suv, the Pilot comes very close to ideal. It has a smooth and powerful enough engine to manage tough and icy mountain slopes, maneuvers responsively through winding mountain roads or congested city streets. It handles great in inclement New England weather and it has an unbeatable safety record. Its only a little bit noisy (tire noise) but the engine is barely audible. Oh, and its handsome enough for the country club and a lot cheaper than that MDX!

  • excellent job honda - 2003 Honda Pilot

    this vehicle is awesome. there is a premium above msrp, but compared to everything else on the market this is a steal. i took delivery of my taffeta white/fern pilot ex-l 5/31, and i cant get anough of it. in fact i think my neighbor wants want too.

  • Great, safe vehicle - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    We had our Pilot for just about 2 years and had no problems with it. It was great for: (i) driving kids in the carpool to school, (ii) taking long trips (DVD in the car may be mans greatest invention) (iii) heading up to the mountains for skiing. I was involved in an accident this past weekend and was broadsided at 55 mph. The Pilot is probably totalled, but my only injuries are bruising from the seatbelt. Since the car is probably totalled we will be getting another Pilot - It looks like it held its value beyond our expectations. Truly a great vehicle by a great company.

  • The Perfect SUV - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    This truck is a dream come true. It rides more like a car (being a Honda Accord / Odyssey underneath w/unibody construction) than a truck. It seats five comfortably and an extra three in the way back 3rd row comfortably, but with tight legroom. Lots of great cargo space. Lots of elbow room. Great seating position, comfortable front seats. Ergonomics cant be beat. Lots of handy cubbys in which to stuff stuff.

  • awesome suv - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    just returned from my first road trip- freeway and oregon coast, far superior to my 99 Grand Cherokee and almost as much fun as my audi quattro.

  • very nice surprise - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Pilot was my third choice, but every now and then you get lucky - I did. Its a mans car. I have been stopped twice by strangers wanting an evaluation. In 31 years of driving, this is the best car I have ever bought, excluding one Mercedes.
