The 2005 Honda Pilot is a great car I've put over 200,000 miles on it and it still runs great! So in my opinion reliability is its greatest feat however it also has a great style. I love the way the older model pilots look, not too flashy but definitely not ugly. The car is also very practical. I'm an avid skier and runner and the car functions great for lugging around all of my gear. I took the car to the Hood to Coast relay race in Oregon last summer. Teams in the race are required to have vehicles to transport their runners and most teams have vans but the Pilot was so versatile that it worked just as well! The car is also very comfortable and I love the seat warmers.
