Great SUV - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Soccer3564 - April 1 - 8:49 pmI have been researching this SUV for a while now and it far surpasses what I expected. The interior design is more for utility not luxury.

Its a Honda!! - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Its a Honda - March 27 - 6:50 pmThis is one sweet ride. Have owned two other Hondas in past 10 years. Both sedans, needed more room to haul more people and stuff. The Pilot is just the ticket. The ride is smooth and very quiet. Leather heated seats are a nice plus. Room for 8 if needed. Smart styling and Honda reliability. I looked at other American made SUVs and could not do it. Honda reliability has a powerful way of keeping customers coming back. Hondas do seem to sell themselves. Well done Honda!!!

"its a Honda" - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Jeff - March 21 - 6:26 pmWell we finally pulled the trigger and purchased the 2008 Pilot EX-L AWD. We first test drove the VP, then the EX- L. The leather seats are far more comfortable, heated seats too! Nice...It handles very well, plenty of zip, and Honda reliability. I thought about buying an American product for about 2 seconds, then came to my senses. This is our third new Honda, Civic/Accord, now Pilot. My fellow Americans, before you buy anything else, test drive this car.

Best Midsize SUV - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Vanz of Tx - March 19 - 9:26 amSolid on road handling, easy to learn interior features(like the Navigation sys),lots of room for 8, safety and reliability. Although 16 MPG for city, very efficient on long distant driving. The drive is so comfortable...good job Honda!

Safe, reliable, and oh so sweet! - 2008 Honda Pilot
By joeyjoejoe - February 26 - 4:37 pmWe have been driving our new VP AWD Pilot for almost a month now and absolutely love it! We decided to take the plunge because of the horrible weather weve been having in the MidWest and we also plan to start a family soon. Ive owned many Hondas, so owning a Pilot was always a goal of mine. I have to say that it has delivered up to my expectations hands- down. We plan to add a few extras like a towing package, all season floor mats, and a remote starter in the near future. We only went with the base VP model without all the bells and whistles and everyone still compliments on how nice and luxurious it looks. We were comparing the Pilot to many other SUVs and it easily beat them out.

Loving The Pilot - 2008 Honda Pilot
By novol - February 13 - 5:24 pmWe recently traded in a Volvo XC90 for the Pilot and are loving it. The interior is quite spacious and having a third row seat is a wonderful convenience. The interior integrity compared to other makes we looked at does not compare. I think we will keep this car for awhile.

Great SUV - 2008 Honda Pilot
By mike - February 4 - 12:16 amHad a 2004 Pilot loved it and bought the 2wd 2008. Great car and love the Hondas reliability.Gas mileage on the 2wd seems much better than my 2004. Live in Ohio and 2wd doesnt seem much different than my 2004 awd. Love the XM feature on the radio, no more looking for stations on trips.

On my second and would go for a third - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Lovemy Pilot - January 28 - 7:09 amI just traded my 04 Pilot in for a new one. They gave me 20k for my 04 with 52K on it. They are aggressively pricing these whick is why I bought a new one now. More importantly you cannot find a better built, more reliable, reasonably priced vehicle on the market today. It is the best of all worlds. Part mini-van, suv, 4 wheel drive vehicle with good gas mileage. If you are looking for a family car, look no further. This is one of the best cars on the market and their price hasnt changed much since I bought mine previous one on 04.

Good all-around vehicle - 2008 Honda Pilot
By Mac - January 27 - 2:31 pmWeve had our Honda Pilot for one month and love it! The stereo sounds great from the front seat, but needs the base turned up to sound as good in the back seat. Its very comfortable during long rides, and fun to drive.

Quality over aesthetics - 2008 Honda Pilot
By welshguy - January 19 - 12:12 pmWith 4 months and 3,000 miles now logged I feel I can offer some insight. With the Honda nameplate you obviously are getting a quality vehicle. Im planning on getting 10 years/110,000 miles out of it and then handing down to my son in elementary school for college use. I did lots of research beforehand and wanted the optional 3rd row w/out having a huge vehicle. Bingo! My colleagues piled in for a trip with the 6 1" guy choosing to sit in the way back. He said he was comfortable...but he didnt look it. They all commented on how much bigger it looked and felt inside than what they thought it would be. I upgraded from a Jeep Gr. Cherokee, and this is hands-down far superior.
