Comfort, Safety, Style, HONDA

We recently added an 08 Pilot to our family (have leased and then purchased an 05 Accord). This is the 5th Honda I have owned since I bought my first new car in 88. Although I'm a die-hard Honda fan, we still looked into the Toyota Highlander, just to be sure our purchase was right for us. We got an incredible price, excellent finance rate, beautiful Pilot with Navigation and ALL the extras! Toyota couldn't even "touch" the deal we got.

After driving the Pilot for 2 months we are so happy with our purchase!!! Although we don't get GREAT mileage in town driving, we did get 20.5 miles to the gallon on the highway. That's even better than what Honda advertises! The XM Satellite is so awesome we have yet to even load CDs into the 6-CD changer. The moon-roof is a very nice touch and we couldn't live without the front-heated leather seats.

The one thing we dislike about the car is where the gear-shift is located. It is positioned too close to the wiper lever and, as you can imagine, we turn our wipers on instead of putting car into gear... a little frustrating, but minor none-the-less.
