We have finally decided what model to go with and now I would like to hear what other Moms think of their Pilots. We most likely will buy a 2011 EX-L. So what is good and what is bad about your Pilot? Thanks so much!
I don't have one, but my sister did. Their least favorite thing about it was having to fill it with Premium gas (this was in 2006--perhaps the newer models allow Unleaded?)
Other than that, it was great, and we all loved riding in it.
I've had my 2010 pilot more than 3 years now and love it. After 2 suburbans we were ready to downsize a bit. I have 4 teenagers and we do use the third row, no complaints about climbing to the back. We are all comfortable and I do especially like the heated seats!
I just bought one and I love it!!! We use the 3rd row 4 days a week when I babysit. It is roomy and comfortable!!! Mine is the 2006 model, but it is still a great car!!!
We had one and it was a great car. Drove just like our accord, which was nice and third row when needed was fine.
They are great vehicles and last forever !!!
Just bought a 2013. As far as the the third row goes, not a problem getting in. Middle seat slides up. It is a 2013. Was looking at a pre owned one, but the financing on the 2013 was 0.9%. When you factored th difference in financing and the cost of a new car as opposed to used, the new car made sense.
My husband LOVES his!
He has the back up camera and heated seats and a sun roof.
It's runs very quietly compared to his old Explorer.
How often will you use the 3rd row? We use the 3rd row every day, so we only looked at vehicles with captain's chairs in the second row (Acadia, Traverse, Surburban, Enclave). It makes it easier for my son to get to the 3rd row. My sister has a Pilot and never uses her 3rd row. Her oldest can sit in the front and the two youngest sit in the middle. She said it's a pain. Just a thought...
We have a Honda pilot- is a great car, I would look for captain seats Because Otherwise whoever sits in the third row has to climb over the back bench seat- We also have a Ford expedition xl that has Captain seats And third row which is way more convenient with kids!
