  • The BEST SUV for the EVERYDAY GUY - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Had it for about 2 months now 2000 miles - no complaints. smooth engine and interior quality is good. Checked out Trailblazer and Explorer (Those 2 cant beat this SUV in any category) The styling was bland in the beginning but it is growing on me. I love the 8 passenger feature (although rear is more for 7) and lots of cargo room. Drives like my acura 3.2 TL -smooth.

    Believe it or not, I traded in my 201 Mercedes C320 for the Pilot. We needed a bigger car for our expanding family and when we learned about the Pilot our search ended. My wife and I cant get enough of this SUV. It is excellent. The gas mileage we got on a trip to Illinois was 25mpg ! It rides like a car and is VERY comfortable! A great buy!

  • New Pilot _ No Dealing - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Looked at Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot. Went to four dealerships. All when questioned about dealing, they all pointed to the "Sticker" and that was that. The Honda had the additional third row seat that sold us on it. Plus we went to resale values on Chevy Trailblazer, Buick Redevous,and GMC Envoy. All were considerably less than Honda and Toyota. Also, a big selling point was that it is front wheel drive.

  • The Pilot was the right choice - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    I was leaning towards the Toyota Highlander until my friend strongly urged me to take his Pilot out for few hours. I was sold on it and got one the next day for $1,000 under MSRP. Dealership was fantastic (Autofair in Manchester, NH). This is a fantastic vehicle. Smooth, quiet, powerful and a TON of room. It is very well thought out. This is my second car in 9 years. My other was a Honda with 112k miles and zero problems, so I know about Honda reliability first hand. I am completely happy with the decision to purchase it.

  • My first SUV and love it. - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    This is my first SUV and Im still driving my 92 Honda Prelude. Although there is no comparison with Prelude, the Pilot handling and power is awsome. Ive driven my Pilot to Mexico/San Diego, San Francisco bay area and Las Vegas and it never complained even with the full load to Mexico.

  • A Real Pleasure to Drive - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    I realized that the Pilot drove more like a Honda (car) than a truck. I was aware of the convenient placement of the gauges, and the audio,heating and cooling controls. The interior of the Pilot was - well thought out, well constructed and pleasing to the eye. The configuration of the seats and the ease of converting the rear ones to allow for more space is a definite plus. The V-6 engine does its job well on the open road Overall my Pilot has lived up to my highest expectations.

  • ITS TIME TO OWN THE HONDA PILOT! - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    I bought my Honda Pilot in Portland on the 10th of June.I have drove about 800 miles with it since;from Portland to Crater Lake and back.I have been impressed with this vehicle alot.It runs as smooth,and quite as any other vehicle on the road,it also has lots and lots of room.It has so much room that when I fold the second and third rows down I can fit about 4 mountain bikes in the back and other stuff such as luggage.It has lots of room in the front.The Pilot has lots of lighting inside to use to look at Maps at night.The bottom line is you wont find a better priced and equiped vehicle than this!!

  • Best In class - 2003 Honda Pilot
    By -

    I have to say, we have never owned an SUV but have owned several Honda Pruducts. I originally wanted an MDX but the Pilot is such a better deal. Rides good, excellent gas milage for an SUV. Huge inside and looks small out side. How do they do that????
