  • Happy w/Honda - 2004 Honda Pilot
    By -

    After many comparisons between the Pilot, Forerunner & Highlander-- the Pilot won. Ultimately it seemed to be the most functional for my needs, in all kinds of weather. It feels stable and solid. The automatic all wheel drive was a decisive factor, along with the safety rating, and the Honda reputation of reliability.

  • Not a Good SUV. A GREAT SUV! - 2004 Honda Pilot
    By -

    My wife wanted a Blazer. They were advertising $4000 rebates. However after comparing the cost to operate. It was clear the Blazer is a LOSER! This car is great. The 3rd seat is hard to get in. Definitely for kids. There is no road noise in this car. Took a few days for dealer to locate a LX. We looked for a car about 3 months. This is it. No rebates, but they gave me a great deal on my Accord.

  • never disappointed in a Honda - 2004 Honda Pilot

    I already own a 98 Accord, so when i was in the market to purchase an SUV, i naturally went back to a reliable Honda. I test drove the Pilot as well as a trailblazer, explorer, escalade, and denali. i was most impressed with the Piolt by its smoothe handling, flashy console, and great warrenty. though slightly more expensive then the other cars in its class, i have been completely satisfied since i purchased my Pilot.

  • Best SUV - 2004 Honda Pilot
    By -

    The Honda Pilot is a great SUV with the ability to seat 8 people for short trips. It drives like a car and is easy for my wife to drive. Its obviously not for the off-road types, but if youre wanting to make a break from the mini-van scene and still maintain the features a family needs, this is the vehicle for you. Dads dont need to be embarassed driving it out with the guys. Best vehicle Ive ever owned.

  • The Greatest Car Ever - 2004 Honda Pilot

  • My First SUV - 2004 Honda Pilot

    Great SUV for the price. Typical Honda design. Nothing fancy..just keeps on running and built with quality workmanship and great resale value.

  • First and foremost, its a Honda - 2004 Honda Pilot

    Great fit for someone looking for a reliable mid-size SUV with a peppy V6, and flexible seating and storage. We feel that we got great value for the dollar and would buy another one. This is not an SUV for someone looking for luxury (inside and out), seating for 8 adults, shifter in the console, or tall drivers. The latter is a nuisance issue to me since I am unable to fully stretch my left leg on long drives.

  • Space to Spare - 2004 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Our Pilot was delivered with a deffective engine and after disputing our request for a replacement vehicle, Honda and the dealer provided us with an entirley new sample some 5 weeks later. Despite this poor start, we are impressed and extremely satisfied with the Pilot. With a family of six, the seating for 8 was a major plus on purchase. What impresses most after 11,000 miles is the comfort and spacious feel together with the responsive drive experience. Only con is serious off road use, dont plan to go there. Awaiting still an assessment of winter performance in the Sierras.

  • This Vehicle is Awesome - 2004 Honda Pilot
    By -

    Since getting the car in December it has performed flawlessly. Took it on a 1,500 mile trip to through the Adirondack Mts. in upstate NY and it handled snow, and all kinds of weather without a problem. Had 6 people in the car 99% of the time and everyone was comfortable. Two teenagers fit in the 3rd row seat without a problem. Entertainment system was appreciated by all. Also dual media source for front and back was excellent. This car drives smoothly, handles well for a truck and is very comfortable. Worth every penny of the purchase price. If like my other Hondas, I should own it problem free for a long time.
