2004 Honda Pilot - An excellent, reliable SUV.
The 2004 Honda Pilot is an incredible car. It has a reliable engine that needs only basic maintenance, drives smoothly, seats 8, and provides ample storage space. The interior is quality cloth- it has survived multiple children and 14 years without a single rip or significant damage! Stains come out easily! The dash has all basic requirements and 4wd option- this was helpful in the mountains! This car has done well on all terrains tested and is a great everyday vehicle.
Story
This car held 8 20something women as we traveled 40 miles to see Christmas lights! It wasn't even uncomfortable!
Pros
This car needs only minor maintenance and upkeep. Few parts have ever needed replacement. For a 2004 SUV, it has excellent gas mileage, around 21/22mpg hwy. It rides smoothly, even with a full heavy load in the back. It can seat 8, 6 comfortably. It can also hold 3 car seats across with 2 double strollers in the back. It's been a huge help when moving- it holds so much without being a massive car. It's easy to drive, easy to care for, and takes care of us.
Cons
The turning radius is not ideal. It's so much easier to back in than attempt to pull into a parking spot in this car. The door locks also broke around 12 years old and needed replacing. The mpg decreases with significant city driving. It does suffer from basic wear, as it's quite old.
